Cysts vs Follicles: Important Differences Explained
Is cyst and follicles are the Samething ?
Gynecologist/Obstetrician
Answered on 8th Aug '24
Follicles and cysts aren't the same. Follicles are tiny sacs in the ovaries where eggs develop. They're normal and needed. Cysts can form when follicles don't release the egg right. Cysts may cause pain, bloating, and irregular periods. If you think there's a cyst, see a gynecologist to check and treat it properly.

Unwanted pregnancy medicine fr 3 mnth
Female | 25
From my point of view, a person shouldn’t take any medications for an unwanted pregnancy without a doctor's consultation. An appointment needs to be made with a gynecologist or an obstetrician who is trained to offer appropriate care and advice.

Hi - I am currently pregnant and need a clarity on my conception date. To give a bit of background- I was on combined contraceptive pills (Ovranette) until 9th of March, when I came off it after finishing a pill pack. I got my withdrawal bleeding on 12th March(which I consider as the first day of myLMP) I tested positive for pregnancy on 11th April when my periods didn’t arrive. I had two ultrasound scan so far - one on 2nd May when the gestation age was measured as 7 weeks 2 days as per ultrasound and the second one on 9th May when the gestation age was measured as 8 weeks 2 days as per ultrasound. Since I conceived the next month after coming off pill, I need some clarity on when did the conception happen. I had 2 times sexual intercourse during this time - one on 12th March (couple of hours before commencing my withdrawal bleeding) and the next one on 23rd March - would like to know which intercourse has resulted in the pregnancy
Female | 32
According to what you’ve said it’s more likely that the sexual intercourse on 23rd March caused your pregnancy. Typically, a pregnancy test becomes positive about 4 weeks after conception which matches the dates. Having taken the pill, you can easily mistake withdrawal bleeding for your normal period. Some symptoms such as positive pregnancy tests and ultrasound findings indicate that it happened after 12th March. The best thing to do now is keep seeing a gynecologist.

Will ipill work after 8 days of unprotected sex?
Female | 21
The I-pill sounds like it could be used as emergency contraception, but you really should take a pregnancy test. This is the deal: It works best within 72 hours and becomes less effective over time. Eight days later, its capability is minimal. Preventive medicine is always better than a cure - if you are anxious about pregnancy results then consult with a gynecologist for more help!

Female | 63
Diabetes patients have a slim chance over time to witness such a development. Ovarian cancer has various signs including symptoms like bloating, frequent urination, and abdominal pain. It usually happens due to alterations in the cells of the ovaries, but the precise reason is often unknown. Treatment may be either surgery, chemotherapy, or a combination of both. Your mother's treatment team will determine the best approach for her particular case.

I have a weird feeling in my vagina. I feel a burning sensation in the vagina, pain in the clitoris, and also constant tingling. I feel pain inside my legs, extending from the vagina to the buttocks, and my left leg specifically. This started when I was on my period and my pads used to get accidentally inside my vagina and I am afraid it might hurted the nerves. I took cafixime cause I thought it is bacterial vaginitis. I had this for like one week and then it went away for a week and came back again. After healing I rode a bicycle twice but for just few seconds. I also showered and some soup got into my vagina so I am afraid I damaged some nerves after it was healed. Finally, I had Two weird dreams. I dreamt that I am taking an exam and suddenly I felt Contractions in my vagina and woke up. It was very weird and uncomfortable and it happened twice. I am constantly not comfortable weather if I am sitting or lying in bed so it’s very distracting, and painful sometimes. I want to know what do I have?
Female | 20
It sounds like you're experiencing quite a lot of discomfort. Burning sensation, pain in the clitoris, tingling, and pain extending from the vagina to the buttocks and leg could be signs of various conditions. Given your symptoms, it is important to consult a gynecologist. They can conduct a proper examination and determine if it's related to nerve damage, an infection, or another condition. Please visit a gynecologist to get an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

i am 16 (female) 43kgs , height- 4`11, have not had my period since almost 100 days. no history of sexual intercourse no history of previous medications
Female | 16
Not having a period of around 100 days is significant. Several factors could cause this lengthy gap. Stress impacts hormone levels, affecting menstruation. Weight fluctuations, whether gaining or losing, disrupt cycles too. Thyroid conditions or hormonal imbalances are other potential reasons. Consulting a gynecologist is wise to pinpoint the underlying issue. Remember, caring for physical and emotional well-being matters.

I had taken I-pill (Emergency Contraception) after having Protected Sex. Will I be getting any withdrawal Bleeding? Within how many days will I get my Periods post Withdrawal bleeding? My last period was 16-20 Feb I had the pill on 26th Feb My cycle is usually 28-29 days
Female | 22
You consumed an emergency contraception pill following protected intercourse. This action could induce withdrawal bleeding around one week later. Post this bleeding, your menstrual period may occur within roughly one month from your prior cycle. With typical cycles lasting 28-29 days, anticipate your period near late March. If any concerning or irregular symptoms manifest, visit a gynecologist.

Can u bleed at 6 weeks? Just a little and stop?
Female | 19
Yes, it is possible to bleed lightly for 6 weeks of pregnancy, and at last, it stops. This is appendicle and known as implantation training. When the fertilized egg sticks to a uterus lining it happens. Remarkably, if the blood loss is minuscule and the patient does not feel pain, everything is okay. However, in contrast to this, long-term, or if the folks feel hard pain with bleeding, they have a hand-set in consultation with the gynecologist.

I am a girl and my age is 22. I have pain in my left nipple.
Female | 22
A throbbing or stabbing sensation in the chest can be triggered at the age of 22 by a variety of issues, such as hormonal transformations, trauma, disease, or particular drugs. Hormonal shifts around the menstrual cycle can cause one or both nipples to hurt. If you are experiencing pain along with other symptoms like redness, swelling, or discharge, see a healthcare professional immediately.

i feel pains on my bladder like period pain as if i am going to have my period now but it has not arrived yet, and i tested negative.
Female | 27
Maybe these symptoms were caused by a urinary tract infection (UTI). Pain or pressure in the bladder are some of the symptoms and causes of UTIs. An adequate water intake will help your body flush out the bacteria while high-quality cranberry juice will help you prevent and treat urinary infections. Visit a gynecologist if the symptoms persists.

These symptoms could mean an infection called bacterial vaginosis. You might see unusual discharge too. The bad bacteria are growing too much, causing this. You should see a gynecologist for a checkup. They'll suggest antibiotics to make the infection go away.

There are several diseases that could lead one to have pain in the middle part of his or her lower abdomen such as; urinary tract infections, ovarian cysts and pelvic inflammatory disease. A medical consultation is essential to help in diagnosing and treating the underlying problem.

Please my depo shot end last year Dec and my period return on the January till now with 28days circle length but i cannot get pregnant
Female | 33
Your menstrual cycle is back on track and that’s good. But it can be disappointing if you don’t get pregnant. This could be due to problems with your ovulation or your partner’s semen. Stress, gaining or losing too much weight, and health issues might also have an effect. Track your ovulation, maintain a healthy weight, and see a gynecologist regularly.

I take abortion pills but my periods held for one day only then I do pregnancy test 2 times and it's negative
Female | 19
Periods can often change after using abortion pills. Even one-day periods might be normal. Two negative pregnancy tests suggest you're likely not pregnant. Stress and hormones can impact your cycle. However, if unsure, consider consulting a gynecologist for reassurance.

I get my menses on the 8th and 24th is it normal
Female | 20
Your period arriving on the 8th and 24th may seem irregular. An unpredictable menstrual flow signals an erratic cycle. Stress, hormone imbalances, thyroid problems, or PCOS could cause this pattern. Recording dates on a calendar helps identify trends. Persistent irregularity warrants consulting a gynecologist for evaluation. They can suggest suitable remedies and provide guidance.
