Gynecologist
Answered on 23rd May '24
A CA 125 level of 35.10 is within the normal reference range for most laboratories, as the normal range can vary slightly depending on the testing facility. Generally a value below 35 U/mL is considered normal.
CA 125 is a protein marker that can be measured in the blood. It's primarily used as a tumor marker for ovarian cancer but it can also be elevated in certain other conditions.

I noticed I do pee blood immediately after sex for the pass view month now
Male | 29
It's crucial to be aware if you detect blood in your urine after sexual intercourse. This can be attributed to a few reasons like a urinary tract infection or bladder irritation. This is what happens when the delicate tissues of the urinary tract get affected during sex. It is a good idea to drink enough water and urinate after sex to help remove any bacteria. Besides, use enough lubricant during sex to avoid any friction that may cause bleeding. If you still notice blood in your urine, it would be best to consult a gynecologist for further evaluation and advice.

Female | 20
Lecoriya, commonly known as leukorrhea, is a condition where the vagina produces more discharge than normal. It happens due to infections, hormonal changes, or lack of hygiene. Signs may include white or yellowish secretions with itching. To cure it, always put on clean underclothes, keep clean, and avoid perfumed items. If the symptoms persist, consult a gynecologist immediately.

I have taken unwanted 72 before 6days can i take another pill now ? My period not yet started .
Female | 24
Unwanted 72 is to prevent pregnancy when taken within a timeframe after unprotected intercourse. Taking another dose within such a short timeframe may not provide any additional benefit and could potentially increase the risk of side effects.

I am 27 year old female. I had sex on april 8 and got my period on may 11 and i am bleeding again on may 31. Am I pregnant or is it normal. I used to take contraceptive but i stopped at the end of March
Female | 27
Bleeding shortly after your period has ended may be nothing to worry about, especially if you have only recently stopped taking birth control pills. It could be caused by changes in hormone levels. However, it could also indicate other issues. Continue observing the symptoms and in case the bleeding continues or you notice anything else unusual, it’s best to consult a gynecologist for further advice.

Hi, I had unprotected sex on the 9th of March but I took postinor 2, like 4 hours later, my last period was 1st March, right now I feel pains in my nipple, could I be pregnant?
Female | 32
If you engaged in unprotected sex and then took postinor 2, it's good you acted quickly. Nipple pain may not indicate pregnancy. It could result from hormonal fluctuations or even stress. However, the only definite way to determine if you're pregnant is by taking a pregnancy test. For accurate results, it's best to wait until you miss a menstrual cycle before testing.

I am 28 years female pregnant 10 weeks i think . My last period started at march 8 . The first few weeks i had back pain period like pains and breast pains . Now i only have breast pain. Is it normal?
Female | 28
Having symptoms like back pain, period-like pains or breast pain is completely normal but should not get you worried in the first weeks. While some indicators might slowly decrease or change, not necessarily the same are experienced on the other hand. Breast pain occurring alone is fine. Your body might be adjusting to the changes because of the hormonal fluctuations. Give yourself time to relax, stay hydrated, and have a balanced diet. If you have any doubts, you should always refer to a gynecologist for proper advice.

I am 18 year old , i missed my periods , i had first time sex on 12 th and bleeded for 3 days and my period date was 17 and today is 27 they hadn't cane yet and we used protection
Female | 18
Your periods can get delayed after sex, particularly if bleeding lasts days. Stress or hormones may cause this too. Protection lowers pregnancy chances. Relax, eat right, and rest well. if you still have no period in 1-2 weeks then take a pregnancy test.

Stomach pain early in pregnancy can be due to the many changes your body is going through, which are often normal. However, it could also indicate a more serious issue, such as an infection or a problem with the pregnancy. Other symptoms like bleeding or fever may also suggest complications. It is important to consult your gynecologist, as they can identify the cause and provide the best treatment for you and your baby.

Hi Doc, I have fibroids and usually after materbating I feel pains (abdominal pains) what could be the problem?
Female | 32
Feeling some pain after self-love is common with fibroids. Fibroids are growths in the uterus, not cancerous. During intimacy, the uterus contracts, leading to discomfort. Still, chatting with a gynecologist helps understand the pain better. They can suggest ways to manage it properly.

While the brown discharge and cramping that you may pass on after unprotected sex could be a sign of implantation bleeding, it will only occur within the period of the expected period.

Meri umra 46 h do mahine se mc se nahi hui hu or pregnancy chahti hu kya ye sambhav h.
Female | 46
At 46 years it is still possible to conceive and become pregnant, although fertility generally decreases as women get older. There could be various reasons for the missed menstrual cycles, like hormonal imbalances, perimenopause (the transitional phase before menopause), stress, certain medical conditions, or even pregnancy.
Since you're trying to conceive, it's important to consider the possibility of pregnancy as well. I recommend that you take a pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy as the cause of the missed periods. If the test is negative and your menstrual cycles remain irregular or absent, it would be advisable to consult a gynecologist.

The fact that you are having a bleeding episode after the use of the kit can be an indication of the termination of pregnancy. If you notice that your bleeding is constant without any clots, then it may be an indication that the pregnancy has been terminated. It is better to visit a gynecologist for the right diagnosis and treatment.
