Gynecologist
Answered on 4th Sept '24
Experiencing difficult period symptoms are common as you get older. The flow becoming heavier and cramps worsening could indicate hormonal changes. Painful cramps, feeling lightheaded, and nausea often accompany periods too. Ginger tea or small, bland snacks may ease nausea. For cramps, try using a heating pad on your lower belly or taking ibuprofen. Stay hydrated and rest well. If symptoms persist or worsen severely, consult a gynecologist for advice.

I had protected sex and my period is delayed and later seeing light bleeding
Female | 17
There can be several factors if you are experiencing a delayed period followed by light bleeding like stress, hormonal changes, contraceptive use, and the possibility of pregnancy. While protected sex reduces the risk of pregnancy, no method is entirely foolproof. If you are concerned about pregnancy confirm by taking a home pregnancy test.

Female | 26
Your dates suggest that your menstrual cycle is irregular because there is a difference in the length of your periods. If you had unprotected intercourse during the fertile window, then pregnancy is a possibility. The symptoms like missed periods, nausea, and breast tenderness can tell you if you are pregnant. It's best to take a home pregnancy test or see a gynecologist for confirmation.

Doctor can i have utp test after 16 days of unprotected sex? She missed her periods by 2 days. What should i do now?
Female | 19
A urinal pregnancy test (UTP) is most accurate when taken at least a week after a missed period. Since she has only missed her period by a couple of days, it may be better to wait a bit longer. This allows the body enough time to produce the hCG hormone, which the test detects for pregnancy. If her period doesn't come, the best time to take the test is about a week after the missed period. Visit a gynecologist for further advice and guidance.

I am 15 year old female with right breast pain for 3 weeks. What do I do?
Female | 15
If you are a young woman, breast pain could signify many things. For example, it could just mean that your body is responding to hormonal changes during puberty. On the other hand, these feelings might indicate some injury or infection – they could also be associated with having a cyst in one or both breasts. You should visit a healthcare professional who will then be able to examine and advise accordingly on proper management tactics for dealing with any discomfort related specifically to mammary glands that may arise.

Is neurozan safe to use during pregnancy
Female | 27
Neurozan contains vitamins and minerals that could harm an unborn child. Don't take it if you're pregnant. Get nutrients from foods recommended for expecting moms instead. Before taking any supplements during pregnancy, ask your gynecologist if they're safe for you and your baby.

I’m experiencing lower abdominal pain on both the right and left side and the middle, this has been happening for a week. Started from sharp severe pain to mild and i suddenly got my period but still in pain.
Female | 22
This could be brought about by a couple of things such as period pains or even digestive problems. Sometimes it can hurt in more than one place at a time. Menstrual cramps mostly affect the lower belly while abnormal digestion is characterized by similar signs. Taking less heavy meals, drinking a lot of water, and lying down might help make you feel better. In case it persists or becomes severe, it is important to seek medical attention from a gynecologist.

Hello, when I was young I had a wound inside the incision-shaped urination hole extending inward from the front vaginal wall side. The wound was healed, but that incision remained approximately 1cm long. Now I have doubts that it will turn into fistula after sexual intercourse or normal childbirth. Is there a risk in having this incision knowing that at the moment it does not cause me problems and urine comes out of its normal opening naturally. This problem worries me very much.

My partner expected periods is jan22 till now for her came can we take the pregancy test at home
Female | 22
A missed period can indicate pregnancy. If your partner expected her period on January 22 yet it did not arrive, take a home pregnancy test. Signs of pregnancy include irregular periods, feeling queasy, exhaustion, and sensitive breasts. Should the test be positive, consult a gynecologist. They will verify the results and advise on further action.

Female | 18
There can be different reasons for this problem, such as stress, weight gain, or hormonal imbalances. The color, time taken, and amount of blood during menstruation are early indicators of a possible imbalance in your body. You should first and foremost dedicate an appropriate period to stress reduction and eat a balanced diet. Also, be sure to get regular exercise. Visit a gynecologist to get proper treatment.

The abnormal case is the observation of 7 days of heavier bleeding and clotting. In medical terms, this condition is called menorrhagia and it can be caused by several factors, such as hormonal imbalances, fibroids or polyps. Proper diagnosis and treatment can only be provided by a gynecologist.

Female | 27
Sometimes, you might miss your period when taking birth control pills. The hormones in the pills can change things. So, it's normal to have a weird period while adjusting. However, if no period comes soon, take a pregnancy test just to be careful.

I'm 20yrs old . I have got some pregnancy symptoms like tried, leg pain, Vomiting tendency, etc bt in my period date I got bleeding for 2 days. Not overflow but some clotts are there there is anything wrong
Female | 20
Tiredness, leg pain, and vomiting sensation are possible signs of early pregnancy before your periods come. If on top of these symptoms during this same time that you're supposed to menstruate, there has been abnormal bleeding with big clots-it is something serious. You should see a gynecologist for proper assessment and advice about what could be the root cause of it all.

Iam 7 weeks pregnant had an ultrasound yesterday ....baby heart beat is found..but a small subchorionic collection is seen near the g- sac of about 10×3 mm ....is this collection is small or large please tell me
Female | 28
The subchorionic collection near the gestational sac is a small bubble, measuring about 10 by 3 millimeters. Sometimes, these collections can cause light bleeding during pregnancy. Staying calm and avoiding heavy lifting may help. Most of the time, these collections fade away as the pregnancy progresses. It's important to see a gynecologist for any further advice.

Please help.
Female | 20
You are worried about the spotting. It's important to know that spotting between periods can be caused by several things. In your situation, it may be due to the medications you are taking for your keloids and spider veins. Kenalog injections and horse chestnut may sometimes influence the menstrual cycle. However, if you still have spotting or any other issue, it is always best to contact a gynecologist.

I am 34 yrs only two kids recently we planned a trip to tirupati so I too period postpone tablet and after that I got my period but the problem is I am my 6 th day still bleeding heavy I am taking etosys tablets will my blessings stop
Female | 34
This is not unusual, and in fact, besides the fact that you menstruate more heavily, you might also experience a prolonged period when you take drugs to delay menstruation. This can be attributed to hormonal changes. Although Etosys may assist in symptom management, you still need to stay vigilant about your condition. If heavy menstrual bleeding lasts for more than a week, or if it is aggravated by terrible pain, or if you are having other symptoms that make you worry, consult a gynecologist immediately. They can do a checkup to find out what is wrong and give you the right treatment.

Female | 17
You are probably having some symptoms of a condition called premenstrual syndrome (PMS) which is why it sounds like that. PMS can cause headaches, arm pain, dizziness, shaking, and feeling off-balance. This phenomenon is caused by the hormone changes that happen before your period. You can manage these symptoms by getting enough rest, eating healthy foods, staying active, and managing stress. If these symptoms bother you, it's a good idea to talk to a gynecologist.
