There are a variety of factors that can cause a delay in menstruation. STRESS, WEIGHT, and PCOS are all common. PREGNANCY or menopause are also possible explanations for a late period. If you are SEXUALLY ACTIVE, it is recommended that you take a pregnancy test. Otherwise, it may be best to simply WAIT IT OUT. If your period still hasn't arrived after a month, it's time to CONSULT A DOCTOR.

Single wide loop of cord around fetal neck

Female | 21

Finding a cord loop around a baby's neck is common. Normally, this doe­sn't cause issues. The cord wraps whe­n the baby moves. Babies can be born vaginally without issue­s. During delivery, doctors monitor the baby closely to e­nsure smoothness.

I had protected sex on april four days after my period. The next month was period was a day late so i had one full papaya and ginger tea with other spice and jaggery and exercised a lot. My period arrived but was comparatively light normal clots and heavy cramps. Is there any possibility am pregnant

Female | 20

It's not probable for you to be pregnant if your menstrual cycle arrived even if it was a little different than usual. At times, periods may be lighter or heavier due to factors such as stress or dietary changes. Cramps and clots are also normal occurrences during menstruation. However, if you’re still concerned about being pregnant, take a pregnancy test.

I have a reoccurring vaginal pimple on my left labia. this has been happening for a couple of months and i shave frequently, though this happens when there more sweat and shaving involved. the pimple shows up typically one to two weeks after shaving. i was wondering if i should be worried especially if it’s reoccurring?

Female | 17

It may be caused due to ingrown hair, blocked hair follicles, or skin irritation from shaving or sweat. TO avoid this, u can try keeping the area clean, wearing loose-fitting clothing, and considering alternative hair removal methods. If it still doesn't heal then check with a gynecologist for proper 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
