Is it Safe to Insert a Mirena Coil without Removing the Previous One?
The situation is that the patient came to the doctor to change the Mirena spiral. The IUD Mirena was recommended by the attending gynecologist after surgery to remove an ovarian cyst and polyp. Diagnosis: adenomyosis (before surgery, the patient complained of heavy, non-painful menstrual bleeding). The first spiral lasted 5 years without problems. The gynecologist introduced a new IUD without first removing the old one. In connection with this situation, I have some questions. I would be grateful for your professional opinion. 1. Is it possible to correctly install the Mirena coil into the uterine cavity if the previous coil was not removed? 2. What side effects can be caused by the simultaneous presence of hormonal IUDs (two sterile foreign bodies) in the uterus. Could this cause health problems and harm to the patient? 3. How can one explain the symptoms that arose after the installation of the second Mirena, such as pain in the lower abdomen, lower back and excessive menstrual bleeding?

I would recommend that the new coil should not be inserted until the old one removed. This can result in problems such as perforation or infection. The presence of two hormonal IUDs in the uterus may cause hormonal imbalance and the risks of side effects. To treat the symptoms of lower abdominal pain, lower back pain, and heavy menstrual bleeding, consultation with a gynecologist who is an adenomyosis specialist is recommended.

Will I get cancer later in life if I will never get pregnant and breastfeed?
Female | 30
Breastfeeding itself does not directly cause cancer. It has a protective effect against breast cancer. Cancer can develop in both people with and without children. It is of utmost importance to have regular check-ups and to practice good nutrition, exercise, and avoid smoking as preventive measures to lower the risk of getting sick. If you have any peculiar and unusual changes in your body like lumps or changes in moles, you should go to an oncologist.

Hi. I had 8 months back resulted in ectopic pregnancy. My periods was normal after that. However, since January my cycle is not right. I usually had 28-30 days of cycle. In January I got periods on 35th day. Feb was 30th day and now I am due on 5th March. Didn't got my period yet. One strange thing is also happening that when I wipe after poop I see a lil blood spot. This only happens around my period since 2-3 times. Currently I am having leg pain since 5 days. Feeling nauseous also. The reason for ivf was low amh. Got only 4 eggs in ivf process. Please help what should I do next
Female | 29
Your gynecologist should be consulted on this, as you experience irregularities in your menstrual cycles after ectopic pregnancy. It might be post-wiping blood because of hormonal changes or as a result of infection. Leg pain and nausea could be caused by almost anything, therefore a thorough investigation must be done. It is vital for you to not neglect seeing your doctor without delay.

My periods skip sometimes , and I am Suffering from pcod ?
Female | 17
Women often experience irregular cycles with PCOD. This condition occurs when hormonal imbalances disrupt ovulation. Consequences include missed periods or delayed menstruation, acne flare-ups, weight fluctuations, and excess hair growth. Adopting a nutritious diet and maintaining an active lifestyle can mitigate symptoms. In certain cases, prescribed medication may help restore hormonal balance. Consulting a gynecologist and practicing self-care are crucial for managing PCOD effectively.

Because im worried taking levonorgestrel 3rd time will be dangerous and will it help anyways ? Can you please help me Thank you
Female | 19
Your history of polycystic ovary syndrome and irregular periods might manage to create some doubts as to your chances of getting pregnant, however, if you have unprotected sex, the chances of getting pregnant are still possible. It's fantastic that you grabbed the morning-after pill, but the fact that you use it multiple times so close together can lead to side effects and maybe it won't be as effective. The ideal way to steer clear of pregnancy is through the use of regular birth control methods such as pills or condoms. Discussing with a gynecologist is essential for finding the best solution to your situation.

The first sign of pregnancy is missing periods so u have to wait till you don’t get periods on your expected date , let 7 days pass by from the expected date , u can then do urine pregnancy test to confirm the pregnancy. These are the earliest sign of pregnancy . You can also visit dermatologist near you for quick result

In my previous periods date is April 25th .I have doing unprotected sex in May 19th .some issue? Any chance for pregnancy?
Female | 25
I understand that you are concerned that you could be pregnant after unprotected sex on May 19 following your period on April 25. Let me tell you this: yes, you can get pregnant as the sperm can stay alive in a woman’s body for several days. Take a pregnancy test if you miss your period, have nausea, or feel tenderness in your breasts.

hi,my mom, who is 55, experienced menopause a decade ago. However, she has recently noticed some unexpected bleeding. I thought menopause meant no more periods. Why is she bleeding after 10 years of menopause? Should we be concerned, and what should we do about it?
Female | 55
An abnormal vaginal bleed after menopause could indicate the presence of uterine cancer or endometrial hyperplasia and hormonal imbalance. I recommend that your mother consult a gynecologist immediately. A gynecological oncologist is a specialist who can diagnose her in more detail and prescribe treatment if necessary.

i have done with tubectomy but my period missed and i have pregnancy symptoms and i have a pregnancy test but it was negative but still i have symptoms
Female | 23
If you're experiencing symptoms like missed periods and pregnancy-like feelings, despite a negative test, don't worry. Stress and hormonal shifts can sometimes mimic those sensations. Still, it's wise to consult your gynecologist about any concerns. They'll examine you thoroughly to ensure all is well.

Female | 19
Sometimes the lines on the kit may not look as dark as you expect, but that doesn't always mean there's a problem. The reason could be due to testing very early or following the instructions. If you're uncertain, wait a few days and retest. Remember, it's always best to confirm any concerns with a gynecologist.

Female | 23
Abdominal pain and light bleeding are a common side effect of the medicine you took. At times, the bleeding may differ from person to person, so if it is not heavy that is fine. Just rest and keep yourself hydrated. If the bleeding stops entirely or you feel severe pain then seek medical help.

I am having vaginal itching with unusual discharge since last month.
Female | 22
It seems that you have vaginal itching as well as an unusual discharge which can be brought about by several different things. This could mean there is a yeast infection where too much yeast is present in your body. Bacterial infections are other common causes or even sexually transmitted diseases (STIs). You should go for a checkup with a gynecologist who will give the right diagnosis and prescribe proper treatment methods for you.

After 3 months Periods, Heavy bleeding
Female | 22
A lot of flow after three months can be alarming. It may indicate that you are losing a significant amount of blood. This might cause you to feel weak, tired, and short of breath. The usual reasons are hormonal imbalances or problems with your uterus. You must talk to a gynecologist. They can help you identify the cause of the heavy bleeding and recommend the most suitable treatment for you.

It is not recommended that you delay your periods as it can be harmful to your health. Attempts to control your menstrual cycle can result in hormonal disbalance and hence irregular periods. Talk to your gynecologist

Skipping periods for two months raises concerns. Stress, weight changes, hormones, or health conditions cause this. Other signs like acne, excess hair, and headaches may occur. Consulting a gynecologist is advisable for an examination and treatment options.

I have had long light period that lasted for three weeks and spotting after and now with cervic mucus and a burning sensation in lower abdomen. A few months ago my blood test showed higher LH levels than FSH. What could it be please?
Female | 40
You may have a hormone imbalance, meaning your hormone levels aren't in the right ratio. This can affect your menstrual cycle, leading to spotting between periods, unusual cervical mucus, and lower abdominal pain. A blood test showing higher LH levels compared to FSH also suggests an imbalance. It's important to see a doctor for a full check-up. They can examine you and discuss treatment options, which may include medication or lifestyle changes to manage the imbalance effectively.
