Patient's Query

I had a surgical abortion 5 weeks ago and l have been fine till 5 days ago my started having abdominal cramps and contractions in my pelvic area without any bleeding l don't know if there a problem or is normal

Gynaecology

Answered by Dr. Mohit Saraogi

It is usual to feel muscle contractions after a surgical abortion. Your body is repairing itself and getting back to normal. However, you should be alerted if cramps worsen or you indeed feel feverish, as it may be a symptom of infection. Be sure to rest, drink water, and apply a warm compress. If pain continues or you notice any vague signs, inform the gynecologist who carried out the abortion procedure or go to the closest health center.

I had protected sex on 29 jan but also took I pill on the same day. After 7 days got bleeding. After that I didn’t have intercourse but had other activities which might include exchange of fluids..(dry humping etc) not sure about that. My period date was supposed to be on 20 feb but missed it so took Mephrate from 23-28 feb today is 8 march still no periods. Am I pregnant?

Female | 20

It is also possible you maybe pregnant, though the fact cannot be ascertained unless there is thorough medical examination. I advise you to see a gynecologist immediately for an accurate diagnosis. The gynecologist will definitely help you in deciding the best for you which you may need to do a pregnancy test or maybe more examinations.

i have been having white vaginal discharge for past 2-3 days and my period is due for this week ali though i have pcos. i had sex while using a condom and then it was also withdrawn about 3 weeks back . i am really really worried about pregnancy because i read that this could be a sign although i experience this kind of discharge before every menstruation

Female | 21

The reason for this is that before a period begins, a discharge of this nature is usually a result of hormonal changes. If you have been using protection during intercourse, then do not worry too much it is not always a sign of being pregnant. But if you are still worried, take a pregnancy test just to be sure everything is okay.

Mam adenomyosis, endometrial polyps, nabothian cyst hai aur five days se period late hai

Female | 31

Your period delay may stem from adenomyosis, uterine polyps, and nabothian cysts. Adenomyosis often brings heavier, painful periods. Polyps and nabothian cysts can disrupt normal bleeding patterns. Treatments might include medication for symptoms, or minor procedures to remove polyps/cysts. Consult a gynecologist for personalized guidance regarding your condition.

My bleeding is dark red along with small clots so is this withdrawal bleeding or normal periods bleeding as it's been 14 days after taking levenogestrel and I am 4 days away from my predicted period date

Female | 25

Dark red bleeding with small clots can occur as a side effect of hormonal changes caused by the medication, especially as your body adjusts. Since you’re nearing your predicted period, it’s possible this could be related to your upcoming cycle. If bleeding remains heavy, is accompanied by severe pain, or raises concerns, it’s advisable to consult a gynecologist. They can provide tailored guidance and ensure your health is monitored. Remember, your well-being is important, and seeking help is a positive step.

Hi I had my last periods on 8th Jan and from last 3 days i had very light bleeding that too only in morning. Post that whole day nothing is there. Now today is 10 days over but i didnt had my cycle yet.

Female | 26

Light bleeding after your period ends in the morning for a few days is called spotting. Hormone changes, being stressed, or switching up your routine can cause this. Sometimes, this is normal. If this worries you, try relaxing, eating healthy food, drinking lots of water, and resting well. But if it keeps happening for a few more periods, chat with a gynecologist to check nothing else is going on.

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to discuss some concerning changes in my menstrual health that have been occurring over the past few months. Firstly, I have noticed that my periods have been absent for the last three months, which is unusual for me. Additionally, I have experienced variations in the color of my vaginal discharge, ranging from white to dark brown, sometimes accompanied by a foul odor. Initially, I believed these changes to be indicative of an impending period, but now I am uncertain

Female | 26

Missed periods, strange discharge – these could stem from many factors. Hormones out of whack, stress piling on, or some underlying health condition might be the culprit. It's crucial to keep tabs on these irregularities and get checked out by a gynecologist. They'll diagnose the issue and get you the right treatment.

I'm having green mucus like discharge, thick and sticks on my underwear . Need to know what infection is this and medications for it

Female | 20

The presence of thick green discharge may indicate a possible infection, such as bacterial vaginosis or a sexually transmitted infection. Associated symptoms can include unusual odor, irritation, or discomfort. These conditions often arise from an imbalance in vaginal flora or due to specific infections. It’s essential to consult a gynecologist for a thorough evaluation and accurate diagnosis. They can prescribe appropriate treatment, typically including antibiotics if an infection is confirmed.

Hi, we are unable to conceive Trying from 7 months

Female | 33

Struggling to conceive can be challenging, and the process may take time. Issues like irregular cycles, timing, health problems, and stress can affect fertility. Both partners need to maintain good health, eat a balanced diet, and avoid smoking. If you're concerned after trying for a while, consulting an infertility specialist is a good idea.

Pain after intercourse lasts for weeks....I got cervix ectrpion. My last pap smear result is: Benign-looking squamous epithelial cells admixed with benign looking endocervical cells and a few acute inflammatory cells.

Female | 43

Pain lasting weeks post-sex (esp cervical excision) is worrying. Looking at your pap results, seems there are ordinary cells plus little inflammation; all could cause this discomfort. Ensure follow-up by visiting your gynecologist for more checks and care. They'll guide you through finding the most suitable solution for your case.

I am breastfeeding and feeling often tired pain in arms legs and nipples are sore because baby is biting

Female | 30

You might face normal breastfeeding troubles. Feeling drained, achy arms and legs, nipples hurting - it happens when your baby bites while feeding. Babies bite during teething. Offer a teething toy first to soothe baby's gums. Try changing your breastfeeding position to reduce nipple pain. Ensure proper latch to avoid discomfort.

If ovulated on day 8th when we can do pregnancy test or when I will get my periods

Female | 31

If you ovulated on the 8th day of your cycle, you might consider taking a pregnancy test around 10-14 days after ovulation. Your expected period could be around the 22nd day of your cycle if it's 28 days long. If your period is late, taking a pregnancy test after missing it is recommended for accurate results

hi! i understand that chlamydia can also cause itching and abnormal discharge just like yeast infections i'm also aware that fluconazole is for yeast infections since they share similar symptoms can fluconazole treat the itching and discharge but not the std itself? i'm really just curious and trying to understand

Female | 22

Chlamydia and yeast infections can both cause itchiness and strange smelly discharge. Fluconazole is the one that is mostly for yeast infections. Well, it may relieve you of the itching and discharge from a yeast infection. Still, it won't cure chlamydia. Chlamydia is a sexually transmitted infection that is treated by specific antibiotics. If you have an infection, it's best to consult a dermatologist for the right diagnosis and treatment.

I am always very moody when I’m on my period. I get angry easily and irritated quickly. This happens every single time I’m about to start and when I’m on my period.

Female | 26

Your time of the month can bring mood swings. Hormonal shifts make anger and irritability more likely - that's premenstrual syndrome (PMS). Bloating and fatigue are also common then. To manage moodiness, rest up, stay active, eat well. But if feelings get intense, reach out to a gynecologist.

Like I am 16 year old teenager who had regular periods before but for the first time missed it in August then got it in September and again missed in August and is worried thinking maybe she has pcos or pcod

Female | 16

It's normal for your periods to be slightly irregular during your teenage years. The occasional missed period is not necessarily an indicator of PCOS or PCOD. This may be because of hormone changes, stress, or lifestyle factors. If you're worried about it, talking to a gynecologist can help you understand what's going on and how to deal with it.

It is just normal to feel worry when your period is late. Many things can cause this. You may feel stressed. Your body weight may have changed. Or, you may have hormone problems. Sometimes, a missed period means you are pregnant. If you keep missing your periods, see a gynecologist for help.

Is this little piece that looks like triangle is normal hymen of a virgin girl ? O don't know how should it look like and i'm afraid that could be something dangerous. A routine ultrasound was performed on the pelvis and everything was normal and i forgot to tell the doctor about the hymen .i don't complain about anything

Female | 24

It's completely understandable to have concerns about the hymen, especially if you're not sure what to expect. The hymen can vary in shape and size among individuals, and a triangular appearance can be normal. Since your recent pelvic ultrasound showed no abnormalities and you have no symptoms like pain or unusual discharge, it is likely all is well. However, if your concern continues, don't hesitate to consult a gynecologist for a thorough evaluation.

I miss my period its gonna be 3 month. I did pregnancy test 5 time buts its negative What should i do? am i pregnant?

Female | 23

Not being pregnant while also missing a period is a possibility because factors like anxiety, too much workout, hormonal problems, and some sicknesses may result in failing to have it. To be certain, get a medical opinion from a gynecologist. They are the ones who can pinpoint actually why you are skipping periods and what would be an appropriate solution.

Iam 20 year female, I have a 26 day menstrual cycle. Every month 11th I have my menstrual period. This month 10th I had an unprotected Sex and it was my first sex. On 11th I didn't get my menstrual period. On 12th afternoon at 3 pm I took levonorgestrel pill. After that on 13th I felt dizziness and from 2 days iam frequently urinating. Now today the date is 16th it's been 5 days I have put on the pill. But I didn't get menstrual period. Iam very afraid. I don't want to get pregnant. Iam unmarried. Please check my situation.

Female | 20

The indications of instability, as well as frequent urination, are the side effects that come with the intake of a levonorgestrel pill, in some cases. One of the repercussions of this pill is an alteration in your menstrual cycle, i.e., a late period. More often than not, it is a typical reaction to developed bleeding, i.e., the moment after the pill is consumed when the period is expected. Keep a cool head and try to avoid getting stressed out, because stress has an impact on your period. If you did not have your period after the first week or two, it is advisable to take a pregnancy test to be 100% sure.

I'm 24 years present month my periods comes not for time what reasons late period

Female | 24

Hormone levels fluctuate throughout the menstrual cycle, which can sometimes cause a late period. Rapid weight loss or gain can also disrupt menstruation. Additionally, an unbalanced diet high in carbs or fats and lacking essential vitamins and minerals may lead to irregular periods. If your period is absent for an extended time or you experience symptoms like pain or unusual odors, it’s best to see a gynecologist, as this could indicate an infection.
