Why am I experiencing heavy periods with fibroids?
I have been suffering from heavy periods since my son was born 6 years ago. I know I have fibroids, but it hasn't been looked at since that time. I'm getting lower back pain, tummy feels on the heavier side and I have put on weight which I'm finding difficult to lose. I feel bloated all the time and it's having an impact on my daily life. What options do I have?

According to your symptoms, the troublesome periods and related bloating may be the result of the fibroids that you are already aware of. Fibroids are non-cancerous growths that are found in the uterus and they can be responsible for heavy bleeding and pressure on the nearby organs, resulting in weight gain and discomfort. To tackle this, you should visit a gynecologist for a check-up and discuss the treatment options including medication or surgery.

I'm a girl aged 18 and having pain on my lower stomach like period cramps but it happens everytym when I'm not on periods and if I had my period it will finish in 8 days but the flow will be drops only from day 7.It started in February when I came from my country to Uk
Female | 18
You seem to be dealing with a situation that is clinically known as pelvic pain. This pain in the lower part of the stomach might be because of a lot of reasons such as ovarian cysts or endometriosis. These may cause the uterus to be painful even when one is not in the menstruation window. Occasional delay and duration of your period may also serve as a clue that something is not right with your hormones. You can visit a gynecologist for consultation and treatment.

I am 28 female. I had no periods from November 2023 to january 2024. I consulted a gynaecologist for the treatment. I have PCOD and weigh 75. I am tring to loose weight. Currently I am on Harmoni F (which I should take on the 5th day of my period)medication. But now i have 2 days of period and it had stopped. What should i do. Should I take regestrone (prescribed by gynaecologist to take to induce period)?
Female | 28
It is normal for women with PCOD to have irregular periods. However, if you have only been menstruating for two days after commencing treatment with Harmoni F, then there is no cause for alarm. Your system might require some time to get used to this medicine. In such situations, Regestrone is usually prescribed for inducing menses. Additionally, concentrate on eating balanced meals and engaging in physical activities to lose weight because it can aid in controlling PCOD signs.

Hello I stop birth control before 2 mother but still am not pregnant what shall I do I feel pain breast nipples hurt
Female | 27
Stopping birth control may cause breast and nipple soreness. Once you stop birth control, your body will need time to readjust. Hormonal changes due to this may be the cause of these symptoms. Wait it out a little longer, but if the pain persists or worsens, consider speaking with a gynecologist to ensure everything is okay.

I missed my period for 25 days. My last month period was on march 1st and on march 16 and 17 I had an intercourse. I have pain on my lower belly some days not always. I had pain when I touch nipples but now it's not there. I have no tendency of frequent urination and I have no vaginal discharge. But when I push while pooping, some discharge coming from vagina Please tell what is this condition
Female | 31
Your body experiences hormone shifting. This impacts monthly cycles. Lower belly and nipple aches could result. When pushing during bowel movements, discharge may happen. Perhaps vaginal infection or irritation causes this. See a gynecologist to understand what's occurring.

I am suffering from pcod but this time i didnt get my periods from last 3 months but from last 5 days im getting it but very little spots of blood its not in good flow can you suggest what should i do to make it flow little heavy ?
Female | 27
The spotting you are having may be indicative of hormonal imbalance. You should get plenty of healthy food and include regular workouts into your daily routine so as to control your period flow. The most important thing is you will reduce your stress level. If the problem does not go away, it is imperative to consult a gynecologist.

Hello doctor I am Lalita 24 year old we are planning for convince...my last LMP was 28th of April 2024 and on 29th of May I feel light vaginal bleeding so on 30th May I checked through pregnancy kit and it was faint line on kit after that I went to gyno doctor and he said it was positive.. after that doctor advised blood beta hCG test and it was 14 and he prescribed HCG injection progesterone tablet and on 8th May I again check through pregnancy kit and it was no showing any line in T section..so am I pregnant or not ?
Female | 24
It can be confusing when there is light bleeding from the vagina with pregnancy test results that keep changing. Having a negative pregnancy test alongside low beta hCG levels might mean that a miscarriage has occurred quite early in the conception process. Please make sure you see your gynecologist so they can check on this matter further and guide you accordingly.

Female | 18
Stress, dietary changes, and hormonal imbalance are some reasons that lead to changes in the menstrual cycle. You might have ginger water to thank for aiding your period's normality to some extent. In the absence of a pregnancy test, the uncertainty is inevitable. Keep an eye on nausea, fatigue, or swollenness of the breasts for signs of pregnancy. To be on the safe side, look out for frequent urinating, food cravings, and mood swings too, if any of these show up. If you experience any other symptoms or your period is delayed again, it's better to consult a gynecologist.

Periods delayed 15 days and what is the reason sirf false alarm aate h aur white discharge Feb month me bhi nhi aaya tha uske bad continue tha phir iss month issue hua .... really want to know.
Female | 17
A 15-day delay can occur because of stress, a shift in routine, or hormonal imbalance. White discharge is normal during this time, and the quantity of it may be different in different phases of the menstrual cycle. If you experience the same issue and/or have other problems like pain and fever, go to a gynecologist for a check-up.

I have a query regarding HPV tests and vaccination
Female | Jayna Bhalla
Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is a common virus and many people get affected by it and yet the symptoms often go unnoticed. It is passed most frequently by the close contact of skin with the infected area. Although some strains produce warts or tumors as a result of an unchecked infection, the vaccination is a valuable means of protection from many conditions of such kind related to HPV. Regular check-ups are the cornerstone of infection prevention. If you have any worries about your health or vaccination, I suggest you see a gynecologist.

So actually I have irregular periods so 2 month of missed period then I got into a intercourse then I ate that ipill after that within some days i got my periods then after it is like 3 months approx but I'm not getting my period so what does it mean
Female | 20
Missing periods can have many reasons such as stress, hormonal changes, or underlying health issues. For instance, taking emergency contraception like the ipill can also affect your menstrual cycle. Should the issue of menstruation not appearing be bothering you for a long time, it is better to get in touch with a gynecologist for more information and assistance.

Ye usko kuch common issues ka samna karne jaise ki muscle strain ya infection face karne wala h. Tum usse aaram karne ki salah do aur ek warm compress use karne ko kehna. Lekin yadi aapke lakshan zyada serious hain, jaise ki bhari dard ya bleeding, toh gynecologist se milna bahut zaroori hai. Professional care unhe sahi diagnosis aur treatment de sakta hai. Isiliye, bina kisi delay ke medical expert se sampark karna behtar hoga.

I had unprotected sex may 25th and then two hours later I took a plan b. Then a week later I had it unprotected again he didn’t cum and wasn’t even close and I didn’t take anything. I was getting worried and decided to take a pregnancy test and it was negative. The test I took was a first response test which can tell you early. Then I took an EPT branded pregnancy test and that was also negative. I did it yesterday and this was a week from my period. I just want to know if those results are something I should rely on? Can they be right if they are specifically for early testing?
Female | 18
In case you didn’t know, a not positive report from First Response brand or EPT brand kits is a good thing. This is because they can identify pregnancy hormones early, enabling you to trust the results. However, it is recommended that you seek further guidance from a gynecologist if you have any concerns or start feeling unwell.

Climbing steps frequently will it cause miscarriage in early pregnancy? I am 40 days pregnant. My age is 31. I am working in a school, I need to climb up the third floor 4 to 5 times a day. Is it safe or creates any issues?
Female | 31
Climbing stairs during the early stages of your pregnancy is usually safe. No one has shown scientific proof that using stairs can be the cause of miscarriage. At your stage of pregnancy, it is still ok for you to climb stairs as you usually do. Take things easy and pay attention to your body. If you notice any symptoms like bleeding or sharp pain then visit your gynecologist as soon as possible.

Female | 27
Mild leg pain, fatigue, brown discharge, and stomach pain are all symptoms associated with menstruation. Indeed, a cycle can be influenced by hormonal differences and stress. However, if those problems persist or escalate, consulting a gynecologist for treatment and counseling is a must.

Female | 26
This occurs when hormones get out of whack, sometimes due to PCOD. To help regulate things, birth control pills prescribed by a doc can be useful; they help balance hormones and manage cycles. But before taking any meds, it's crucial to chat with a gynecologist first. They'll give personalized advice.

Still, if it persists, consult your doctor. They can diagnose and treat the underlying cause. Avoid self-diagnosis and treatment, since it can worsen the condition.
