Heavy menstruation occurs when you bleed excessively over your period. As it is, vitamin C with iron supplements can be what you need, but they may not directly reduce weight. Your body works better with iron in the presence of vitamin C to produce more red blood cells. These periods will make you lose a lot of iron thus the importance of this mineral. If they persist in being so heavy then talking to a gynecologist would be wise.

How to sit on toilet after hysterectomy?

Female | 32

After a hysterectomy, especially initially, be gentle with your movements. Before sitting, ensure you have adequate support, such as handrails or a nearby sink or counter to assist you. Keep your movements slow and controlled.

I took unwanted 72 pill twice a month(we also used condoms) (one on 28 Feb and another on 11th march) of my cycle. My period due date was 20th March and it's one day late. What can be the reason behind it and what can be done? Can I still be pregnant?

Female | 25

Sometimes, using e­mergency contraception like­ Unwanted 72 can impact your menstrual cycle's timing. Stre­ss, illness, routine changes - the­se factors can also delay your period's arrival. With the­ dates you provided and the condom usage­, pregnancy seems unlike­ly. However, waiting a bit longer may yie­ld your expected pe­riod. If concerns persist, a pregnancy te­st could offer reassurance.

Can I be pregnant from grinding on a penis w nothing on and no condom but he was never inside of me and he never came?

Female | 18

A pregnancy may take place if the semen comes into any contact with the vaginal area, whether there is a penetration or ejaculation. It is imperative to have barrier protection while engaging in any type of sexual activity because this way you and your partner will be prevented from having unwanted pregnancies and from contracting sexually transmitted infections.

I am a 26 year old female. I discovered fibroadenomas in my breast when I was 18. I have 8-9 lesions in each breast, not big ones. I get them checked every year. Is this something I need to be worried about?

Female | 26

It is good that you check your bre­ast lumps every year. Fibroade­nomas are growths in the breast that are­ not cancer. You may feel a lump or se­e changes in breast shape­. These lumps happen whe­n gland and tissue cells grow too much. Most times, no tre­atment is neede­d if the lump does not grow or hurt. Kee­p seeing your doctor each ye­ar, and you will be okay.

MISSED periods not always a cause for concern.. Stress, weight changes, diet, exercise affect cycle.. Check for PCOS,thyroid issues,hormonal imbalances... Consult doctor if persistent or other symptoms arise..
