I'm 27 year old female,I got married in April 2023 , I got my periods in 28 days but from the 6 months I will get between 30 to 35 days , is it normal or should I consult doctor and I put on weight (93kg)
Female | 27
It’s normal for your periods to change a bit after marriage. Stress or weight gain due to different lifestyles can affect your cycle. Having irregular periods could be because of these. If you’ve gained some weight, it may be a factor. Doing exercises to lose some weight and eating healthier may help in regulating the period. However, if it persists, seek further advice from a gynecologist.

I am 20 years old girl. Will it be safe to use unwanted 72?? Will it still cause pregnancy?? Does use of unwanted 72 hamper my menstrual cycle?? Or any other side effects??
Female | 20
Unwanted 72 is a contraception pill that is taken after unprotected sexual intercourse to mitigate pregnancy risks. It is reliable, but it doesn't ensure total safety. It could interfere with cycles by leading to period irregularity. Adverse reactions such as nausea, headache, or fatigue are possible. Ask a gynecologist about your worries.

Can you please assist me I'm experiencing Hot flushes
Female | 45
Hot flushes might make you experience a sudden burst of warmth, even when not physically active. These feelings usually occur in women near menopausal age. Hormonal shifts cause hot flushes to transpire. To alleviate discomfort, try these tips: wear lightweight garments, utilize a fan, and abstain from spicy cuisine and caffeinated beverages. Remember, consulting with a gynecologist can provide additional guidance and support.

I am 18 years old l have used many medicines for irregular period but I haven't got any changes what should I do??
Female | 18
Stress and hormonal imbalances vary a lot. Also, diet or conditions like female polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) are among the culprits. Monitor your symptoms and then consult a gynecologist to get a proper diagnosis. They are the ones who can give the best treatment advice, which might involve using medications, changing our lifestyles, or doing both.

why one of my inner vagina lips is a little bit bigger than the other and kind of darker in color
Female | 17
This doesn't typically cause issues or discomfort. It occurs because bodies aren't perfectly symmetrical. However, if you experience pain or discomfort, it could indicate an infection or injury. If it concerns you, consulting a gynecologist can provide more details and reassurance.

I am currently on the Evra birth control patches. I put one on once a week for three weeks and on the 4th week I wear none and get my period. However I am on holidays and forgot to bring my patches. I currently have my week 1 patch on and the time has come to change it, what should i do ?
Female | 18
If you have missed more than 24 hours of the change time that was determined for you, then your protection against pregnancy might not be optimal. It is therefore advisable to use an alternative contraceptive method for the next one week and immediately seek medical attention from your obstetrician-gynecologist. They can also tell you what to do further and ensure that you are still safe from pregnancy.

2 month pregnant Backpain Vomiting Stomach pain White discharge
Female | Chippy
Back pain, vomiting, stomach pain, and white discharge can happen because of pregnancy changes. Back pain may be from the weight gain, while vomiting and stomach pain might be due to morning sickness. The white discharge is normal too. Make sure to rest, drink lots of water, and eat small, frequent meals. If you're worried, always reach out to your gynecologist.

Start tracking your periods and make an appointment with your doctor for a health check-up. The doctor might suggest lifestyle changes, medications, or additional tests to diagnose the issue. It's important to seek medical advice from a gynecologist for your symptoms.

Female | 24
Don’t take more tablets tomorrow unless your doctor tells you to . Severe bleeding can result from taking more tablets. Ensure that you rest and take plenty of fluids. If you have heavy bleeding, severe pain, or any other worrying signs, seek medical help immediately.

Female | 21
You may experience belly pain at the 5th month, every person does that. This might be caused by the growth of your baby and the expansion of your muscles apart from this too, your organs have to move so that the baby can get enough space. Try lying on your left side as well as taking some water or even better still have a warm bath. Should there be any increase in ache or appearance of additional symptoms then let your gynecologist know.

The 13.4 T4 level during month three raises concern. You may feel tired or chilly often. Hypothyroidism could explain this dip. It frequently occurs in pregnancy. To boost thyroid levels, your gynecologist may prescribe medication.

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to discuss some concerning changes in my menstrual health that have been occurring over the past few months. Firstly, I have noticed that my periods have been absent for the last three months, which is unusual for me. Additionally, I have experienced variations in the color of my vaginal discharge, ranging from white to dark brown, sometimes accompanied by a foul odor. Initially, I believed these changes to be indicative of an impending period, but now I am uncertain
Female | 26
Missed periods, strange discharge – these could stem from many factors. Hormones out of whack, stress piling on, or some underlying health condition might be the culprit. It's crucial to keep tabs on these irregularities and get checked out by a gynecologist. They'll diagnose the issue and get you the right treatment.

Am a 22 aged female am taking family planning pills but I had gone periods don't know if it's normal but the blood is different to the common mensural blood
Female | 22
It is quite normal to see alterations in the cycle while on family planning pills. The blood may differ from what the normal is but it is not a cause for concern. Your period might be shorter or longer than in the past. If you are experiencing other symptoms such as extreme pain or heavy bleeding, you should consult your gynecologist.

Hii, My periods are delayed by 7 days now and I m worried as to why this is the case. Just to make it clear I have not indulged in any sexual intercourse. I usually get my periods by 27-28 th day. I got my last period on 5th April and my this month due was around 3rd of April , it's 10th today and I still have not got my periods. Also there has been a change in my routine from continuous travelling to just being at home for a while now. I just want to know if there is anything to be concerned about and should I consult a doc immediately? Or wait for a while ? And what are your takes on this.

Female | 20
It’s pretty normal for periods to be a little irregular, particularly if there have been changes to your routine such as decreased travel. Stress, variations in diet or exercise, and shifts in hormones can also impact your cycle. Since you haven’t had sex, it’s unlikely that you’re pregnant. Wait a bit longer but if it still doesn’t come, I reckon it would be best to see a gynecologist to be sure everything’s ok.

I had sex on 2/3/23 6 days before my period was going to start . The next day I started bleeding lightly some days and heavy some days. Im currently on birth control and take that everyday at 11am. I’m using the bathroom normally with no pain . When I wipe to use the restroom it’s blood. I don’t know what’s going on.
Female | 20
Bleeding after sexual intercourse can have various causes. And since you're currently on birth control and taking it consistently, the chances of pregnancy are generally low. To get a clearer understanding of what might be causing the bleeding, consult with a gynecologist to know why its happening ang get the right treatment.

35 Female with lower abdominal pains below the belly button, bilateral(on both the left and right sides) unilateral in nature(where one sided pain occurs). Sharp and pinpoint to same location for both left and right sides, directly across from each other. happening since October 2021, coincided with period first occurrence on right side 2021 thought it was a cyst at first. Went away until the second occurrence on June 19th, 2022(period cycle then was June 8th - 16th), right side. Went away and returned September 25th, 2022 on left side this time(period cycle for September 2022 was the 3rd through 11th), it occurred again in January 7th 2023 on the right side(period cycle for January 2023 a skipped period) at this point I still thought it was was cyst like pain or even ovulation pain bothering me,so I went to gynecologist, they thought it could be large intestine related due to the location of the pains. I got an ultrasound that came back normal in February of 2023. The same day i had the ultrasound, I went to medexpress to get my physical for my driver's permit, and they suggested asking my previous pcp for a ct scan, to check my appendix. It was hard to get into my previous pcp as I didn't see them in 3 years so I wasn't established. I reached out to the gynecologist I saw in january of 2023, in June 2023 when I had another occurrence of the pain, to see about getting a ct scan. It was approved by insurance, but ultimately denied under physician review( by the supervising gynecologist, and my previous pcp, because my ultrasound was normal). I then established care in December of 2023, with a new pcpx who is suspicious that my pains are coming from ibs mixed with spasms. I am taking dicyclomine 10 mg 4 times a day as needed, but it's not really doing anything when the pains occur. My pcp also changed my dicyclomine to a 45 day supply as I asked in a different question. I also met with a surgeon in March of 2024 due to a large gallstone, as my pcp said they were common in people my age. The surgeon gave a complete different answer than what I have been given before, and he thought my pains could be coming from endometriosis. The surgeon performed my cholecystectomy, on May 29th, and did a general exploration during it, but found no endometriosis. My pcp still suggested getting an evaluation for endometriosis just to know we didn't miss anything, as well as getting evaluated by a gastroenterologist. As my pains have still been continuing. What could these pains be coming from? I feel like I will be tossed back and forth between gynecology and gastroenterology, and I don't want that at all. Some helpful info: My new pcp also diagnosed me with pcos as I fit the criteria for it with my irregular period cycles, despite my bloodwork and ultrasound coming back normal. I also had the cbc; comprehensive metabolic panel; celiac; thyroid; A1C; ESR; and C-Reactive protein all tested in December of 2023 when I met with my new pcp. The only two that came back as abnormal were my ESR at 34 and C-Reactive protein at 29.7
Female | 35
You have been through a lot with your abdominal pains. Therefore, considering the normal ultrasound results and the new suspicion of endometriosis from the surgeon, your pain may be due to endometriosis, the condition wherein tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus that can result in cyclical sharp pelvic pain. It's okay to talk to a gynecologist about more tests and treatments. Besides, you might want to see a gastroenterologist, too, so as to eliminate the probability of any intestinal problems causing the symptoms you are having.
