Understanding Ovarian Cysts: PCOS Bloodwork Results Analysis

I am a 23 year old female struggling with irregular periods for the last 4 years. I finally recently started getting testting done. An ultrasound revealed several cysts on both ovaries. I had blood work done to check for PCOS. My OB/GYN is on night shift and can't see me. My testosterone was normal. SHBG was high. DHEA Sulfate was low. Trying to find out what these results mean.

Irregular periods, acne­, excess hair growth: these­ are common symptoms of PCOS. High SHBG and low DHEA sulfate leve­ls signal PCOS. Don't worry - treatments exist to he­lp. Birth control pills can manage symptoms, as can lifestyle change­s involving diet and exercise­. However, see­ your gynecologist for a full diagnosis and personalized treatme­nt plan. They'll provide guidance and support. With prope­r care, PCOS is manageable.

I have my regular periods and after 48 days i took pregnancy test it shows slight second line... And now iam getting slight bleeding in black color. May i know the reason

Female | 26

A faint line on the pregnancy test can indicate an early pregnancy. The black of a line you are managing could be implantation bleeding when a fertilized egg sticks to the uterus. It is a common thing in the first three months of pregnancy and it's often nothing to worry about. Watch out for it and be gentle with yourself.

Based on your menstrual cycle, you are approximately 4 weeks pregnant. The conception likely occurred around November 17th, the time you had intercourse . It's important to confirm your pregnancy with a medical professional and schedule regular prenatal visits.

Female | 20

Taking 2 painkillers along with Unwanted 72 pills can increase the risk of side effects like stomach pain, nausea, or dizziness. It's important not to take too many painkillers in a year, as it can harm your liver and kidneys. Please consult a gynecologist for advice on emergency contraceptives and a general physician for painkiller usage.

If you miss your period and you suffer from abdominal pain, it would be wise to see a doctor. These symptoms might be caused by some other conditions like ectopic pregnancy or ovarian cyst. It is strongly advised to consult a gynecologist or obstetrician for examination and treatment.
