Can frequent periods indicate a medical concern?

This tablet is the one that includes a substance that minimizes pain and discomfort. Period pain is the result of the contraction of the muscles of the uterus. Muscle relaxants are used to successfully relieve the pain of the uterus. It should also be remembered that the recommended dosage is strictly to be followed even though you buy it as an over-the-counter medicine. The ingestion of food should be done prior to taking the tablet, as long as there is nothing else you can avoid this way that could cause stomach upset.

By assuming a standard ovulation cycle of 28 days, ovulation occurs at the time of the next period which is 14 days prior to the period. Thus, your last period began on August 20th, hence you are likely to ovulate on or around September 3rd. Some indications of ovulation are differences in the thickness of cervical mucus, slight abdominal pain, and a rise in basal body temperature. You can also use ovulation predictor kits to check for ovulation.

You can confirm either with a home pregnancy test or a urine test to confirm pregnancy. 

A blood hCG test is a sensitive test that can detect pregnancy earlier than most urine pregnancy tests. A result of 2 mIU/mL is considered negative for pregnancy. Consult your doctor if you are still concerned.

I understand that you are concerned that you could be pregnant after unprotected sex on May 19 following your period on April 25. Let me tell you this: yes, you can get pregnant as the sperm can stay alive in a woman’s body for several days. Take a pregnancy test if you miss your period, have nausea, or feel tenderness in your breasts. 

A painful cyst contained between the anus and vaginal opening that brings discomfort should be treated by a medical specialist. This may point at an abscess or infection and should be immediately attended to by a gynecologist or colorectal surgeon. Moreover, a doctor should also be consulted and the causes for regular stool or hemorrhoids investigated.

Variation from cycle to cycle in reproductive bleeding is not unusual. On the contrary, light bleeding periods may serve as an indication of some underlying medical condition such as hormonal imbalance or thyroid disorders and polycystic ovary syndrome. You should consult a gynaecologist, who will analyze your symptoms and provide an appropriate treatment.
