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.

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.

missed period what should i do
Female | 17
Missing a period can happen for various reasons, such as stress, hormonal changes, or pregnancy. It's essential to stay calm and consider taking a home pregnancy test if there's a chance of pregnancy. However, it's always a good idea to consult a gynecologist to understand the underlying cause and get appropriate advice.

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.

Hi , I have pcod and before marrige i gone to hospitals and get treatment.They regularise my periods for 3months using tablets.But unfortunately ,my next periods occur in my mrg date so they gave me tablets to postpone.Then after a week of mrg i got my periods.But then i didnt get my periods.It is almost 6 months.can you prescribe me some medicine for my periods.
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.

lower abdominal pain can stem from various causes. APPENDICITIS is common.. Kidney stones, urinary tract infections and menstrual cramps can also trigger it. Often, the pain may be harmless. 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.

Ovarian Cyst is also there size is around 8 cm. Is surgery the only option for me?
Female | 35
Endometriosis can cause irregular and painful periods, and blocked fallopian tubes can contribute to your symptoms. Given your ovarian cyst's size and persistent bleeding despite medication, surgery might be necessary. Please consult a gynecologist to discuss the best treatment options for your condition.

My fiance had taken birth control pill before 15 days Now she got the periods But the blood flow is less Is she pregnant ?
Female | 21
It's unlikely that your fiance is pregnant Birth control pills alter hormone levels, which can cause lighter periods. However, if you're still concerned, take a PREGNANCY test or consult a doctor Remember, birth control pills are not 100% effective at preventing pregnancy, so it's important to use additional PROTECTION if you're not ready to conceive.

Vaginal Yeast Infection. Tried ointment and pills but didn’t cure. It developed some days after I used V wash.
Female | 19
Yeast infection is a frequent vaginal disease that occurs when there are excessive yeasts present. Ointments and pills do not always eliminate the infection. In this situation, therefore it is advised to visit a gynecologist. Do not use products such as V wash until the disease is fully healed.

Hlo I get a lot of itching in my private part and I always feel like wet water. My 9th month will start from 11th August, what should I do?
Female | 22
You might have a yeast infection. It may be accompanied by itching and a wet sensation in the intimate areas. The natural imbalance of hormones during pregnancy makes the development of the condition frequent. For your convenience, opt for cotton underwear, avoid wearing tight clothes, and keep the area dry. Besides, you can apply anti-fungal drugs sold without a prescription in pharmacies. You also need to ensure your gynecologist is on board with it, as not all medications are safe during pregnancy while managing the condition.
