Can Improperly Cleaned Dental Instruments Transmit HIV, Hepatitis, Herpes, or HPV?
I visited a dentist today. It was just a normal checkup. No surgery or any other procedure. The doctor used her magnifying glass instrument to check my oral region and then used a suction pull. Nothing else was used. This process lasted for 3-4 minutes. I have fear that what if the instrument was not cleaned properly and then used on me. Can I get HIV, Hepatitis, Herpes or HPV from it. Also I have health anxiety

Answered on 23rd May '24
The possibility of catching HIV, Hepatitis, Herpes or HPV from ordinary dental visits is low because dentists rigorously maintain sanitation protocols. Nonetheless, if there's any discomfort or worry, it'll be beneficial to fix a meeting with your regular doctor for some blood test or have a consultation with a specialist in infectious diseases.

I am trying to conceive. My age is 43 and weight is 46 . My full body checkup is normal. My prolactin level is 34.30 and amh is 3.9. my uterus is bulky without any fibroid or cyst. My left ovary has pcod and right ovary is normal. I want to know can I conceive.
Female | 43
At the age of 43, there will be a natural decline in fertility but having an AMH level of 3.9 means there is still a fair chance to get pregnant. It may be a little bit difficult because of PCOD on the left ovary but with one normal ovary being on the right this should give some hope. You should talk to a gynecologist about different methods of treatment that can help you become pregnant.

I am 35 Yr old female. Me and my husband have been trying for a baby for sometime. This time, I was 5 days late for my period and I thought I was preg. But 6th day I got blood when I wiped with tissue. But urine there was no blood. 2 full days have been over. My total blood flow has been 1 pad full only. This is different from my usual periods. I don't have major cramps like how I used to have during menses. My cramps are very mild. What should I do?
Female | 35
You are experiencing some changes in your menstrual cycle. It is commonplace to have spotting and minor cramps during the first few weeks of pregnancy. If your menstruation is starting, it might be a little different. Stress, hormonal changes, or even lifestyle factors could be some of the reasons for this. If the symptoms continue or worsen, you should talk to a gynecologist to get personalized advice.

In this february, I suddenly missed the period. My thyroid is normal. My usg uterus report is also normal..i am not pregnant. I gained weight 15 kg. What is the reason??
Female | 26
Not having your period when you're not expecting can occur for various reasons. One common factor is weight gain, especially significant like 15 kg. Rapid weight increase sometimes disrupts hormones causing irregular periods. Maintaining a healthy weight through a proper diet and exercise is key. If irregular periods persist, consulting a gynecologist for evaluation is wise.

Pregnancy test negative but period not coming
Female | 22
A negative pregnancy test that is followed by a missed period, however, requires you to consult a gynecologist. The irregularity of the period in many cases is the result of different causes like hormonal imbalance, stress, over-exercise, or some particular medical condition.

I did pregnancy test but it is unclear. One line is prominent while other one is almost invisible. I want to know what does that mean. If it’s positive, I need to go for abortion. Kindly prescribe medicines. It is for your reference that my last periods started on 28/12/2022. And last I had intercourse on 12/01/2023.
Female | 26
It could be an indication of a very early stage of pregnancy. Get a proper evaluation by a gynecologist to confirm your pregnancy.

I’ve been on desogestrel rowex pill for the last two months I haven’t got my period for two months I’m not pregnant because I’ve taken a pregnancy test and it’s negative
Female | 34
Missing periods may happen when taking desogestrel rowex pills. It is a common side effect. Some people don't bleed at all. There's no need to worry, it's not harmful. Your body just changes a bit. If concerned, talk to your gynecologist.

My pattern took misoprostol on Thursday morning by 7am started having moderate cramping but less bleeding.. around 3pm bleeding come but very less stop
Male | 30
Light bleeding after misoprostol is common. The flow may start slowly, then increase gradually. However, very light or sudden stop could indicate issues like incomplete abortion or hormonal factors. Stay hydrated, take rest. If bleeding doesn't pick up, contact your gynecologist for advice.

Female | 22
Delayed periods happen sometimes. Stress, weight changes, hormone issues, or emergency contraception can cause this. If no period in a few weeks, take a pregnancy test. You can also visit a gynecologist.

periods problem..these month 2 times
Female | 18
Your period coming twice in one month may become a source of irritation, but it is more common than you can imagine. It is usually the result of hormonal changes caused by stress, weight adjustments, or the intake of specific medications. The possible symptoms include unpredictable bleeding, cramping, and mood changes. Monitor your cycle and go to a gynecologist to investigate the chances of the problems and consider various treatment modalities if required.

Thank you Doctor , I visited as per your advice . Now it's diagnosed that I have low lying placenta( placenta previa)reaching the os- CRL approx 5.25cm. Is this good or bad ? ( my gynaecologist didn't explain me that well, I tried searching in youtube/ google but almost all were unsatisfactory ). ( by the way I'm 39 years, this is my third pregnancy ,previous deliveries were cesarean. I got pregnant this time with iud due to that I was slightly bleeding for 18 days with mild abdominal pain with small blood clot ,luckily the iud was removed)
Female | 39
Having a placenta positioned low, close to the cervix, with a CRL of 5.25cm, presents potential risks like bleeding. Considering your third pregnancy and previous cesarean deliveries, close monitoring by your gynecologist is crucial. Avoid strenuous activities or heavy lifting. In severe cases, bed rest may be recommended by your doctor.

I had an ipill and had inetercourse within 12-15 hrs or taking the pill do I need to take another one
Female | 25
If you had an emergency contraceptive pill within 12-15 hours of intercourse, you are usually protected. It's common to experience changes in your period after taking the pill. Wait for your next period; if it's late or abnormal, do a pregnancy test. Also, using regular birth control methods is important to prevent pregnancy in the future.

I had light pink and brown blood for 2 days ..today I have light green discharge
Female | 41
A little pink and brown blood, then light green discharge can occur for different reasons. It might relate to infections, hormones, or irritation. If there's no pain or strange smell, it may not be serious. But watch it closely. If it continues or you feel unwell, talk to a gynecologist to check what's happening and get proper guidance.

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 had unprotected sex on 13april, 2024 and took ipill within 1hr. My last period date was 22march and mensuration cycle is 24days but yet not getting my periods . But yesterday also I had an unprotected sex so should I repeat ipill again? Please suggest And how many day will i get my periods
Female | 30
After taking emergency contraception like the iPill, irregular periods are typical. Potential symptoms include nausea, headaches, and menstrual cycle changes. Stress or hormone imbalances can also postpone your period. Taking another iPill immediately is inadvisable. Allow your body time to adjust. Your period should arrive within the next few weeks. If concerned, consider taking a pregnancy test.

About menstrual problem which means I had my periods before 2 days but the flow of blood is very less
Female | 20
Variation from cycle to cycle in reproductive bleeding is not unusual. On the contrary, light bleeding periods may serve as an indication of some underlying medical condition such as hormonal imbalance or thyroid disorders and polycystic ovary syndrome. You should consult a gynaecologist, who will analyze your symptoms and provide an appropriate treatment.
