What's the recommended treatment for irregular periods and high prolactin levels?

Patient's Query

I am a 25-year-old female experiencing irregular periods and slightly elevated prolactin levels. What is the recommended treatment?

Gynaecology

Answered by Dr. Swapna Chekuri

Irregular menstrual cycles and slightly high prolactin levels can indicate several underlying conditions, such as hormonal imbalances or stress. It's important to address these factors to restore regularity. Initial steps may include lifestyle modifications like balanced diet and stress management. In some cases, medications to regulate hormone levels might be considered. I encourage you to consult with a gynecologist to evaluate your symptoms and explore suitable treatment options tailored to your specific situation.

I had my last period on 29 January (lasts for 5ths and I am on a 30days cycle) had sex on 6&19 February, outside my fertility window, could I be pregnant?

Female | 21

Your fertile window is typically between days 11 and 21 of your menstrual cycle. Based on the dates given, February 6 and 19 were likely outside this period, so pregnancy is unlikely from those encounters. However, stay alert for signs like a late period or unusual tiredness.

Periods related problems

Female | 24

Living with issues resulting from menstrual health is quite common and may be experienced in the form of a period that is not regular, painful cramping, or heavy bleeding. To deal with the symptoms, it is suggested to keep track of your cycle, exercise relaxation techniques, and maintain a proper diet along with exercise. Besides this, OTC (over-the-counter) analgesic drugs could also be used to ease pain. If symptoms persist you can consult a gynecologist.

I am 27 year old female. I had sex on april 8 and got my period on may 11 and i am bleeding again on may 31. Am I pregnant or is it normal. I used to take contraceptive but i stopped at the end of March

Female | 27

Bleeding shortly after your period has ended may be nothing to worry about, especially if you have only recently stopped taking birth control pills. It could be caused by changes in hormone levels. However, it could also indicate other issues. Continue observing the symptoms and in case the bleeding continues or you notice anything else unusual, it’s best to consult a gynecologist for further advice.

Female | 29

It seems like you might be experiencing a pelvic organ prolapse, where the organs in your pelvis, such as the uterus, protrude or feel like they are coming out of the vagina. It's essential to see a gynecologist for proper evaluation and management. They can provide guidance on pelvic floor exercises and other treatment options tailored to your condition.

Why is my vagina discharging a smelly fluid and it’s itchy at the same time then two days later I start spotting and my menses is in 9 days time why

Female | 24

Experiencing unusual discharge accompanied by odor and itching may indicate a potential infection, such as bacterial vaginosis or a yeast infection. Spotting before your period could be related to hormonal changes, but it’s important to approach this with care. To address discomfort, consider maintaining proper hygiene and wearing breathable clothing. However, I strongly recommend scheduling an appointment with a gynecologist for a thorough evaluation and appropriate treatment.

I am a 24 year old boy whose girlfriend is in pain during and after sex. Even feels pain in her vagina when she visits the ladies. What should I do

Male | 24

Pain of this type occurs because of infections, insufficient lubrication, or the presence of certain medical issues. Health care should be her priority when a professional can not only diagnose but also cure the illness. In the meantime, she can try using water-based lubricants during sex to help reduce discomfort.

I feel i pregnant right but my period was coming normal but i feeling heartbeat in my stomach

Female | 20

It's necessary to remember that experiencing a heartbeat in your stomach can be caused by many reasons as well, and, therefore, it may not necessarily mean being pregnant. Sensations like fluttering or pulsations in the abdomen can be due to other stomach problems, muscle cramps etc.If you suspect that you may be pregnant, you should take a pregnancy test and see a gynecologist for follow-up and care.

Female | 18

In some cases, the concern could lead to delays in periods. Another reason for late periods might be pregnancy or hormonal changes. The symptoms of pregnancy include nausea, tiredness, and breast tenderness. On the one hand, you can do a home pregnancy test to confirm the pregnancy.

Hi i need help and advice . I have no symtpoms but i keep thinking and cant shut down now im making myself very sick from stressing and i keep thinking myself pregnant, i dont know if it is period or spotting but my period lasted four days and was dark brown almost like black with little bit of dark and bright red blood inbetween so is it my period? i took clear blue test two weeks after my period and it said im not pregnant at all but is it true, did i take it too late? am i okay? is there any need to stress cause i cant stop myself from overthinking

Female | 16

It sounds like you're experiencing a lot of stress and anxiety about your current situation. The dark brown or black blood you're seeing is likely just older blood being shed, which can happen during a period and is usually nothing to worry about. Regarding the pregnancy test you took two weeks after your period, it's generally accurate at that time, but it's understandable to have doubts. Stress can sometimes interfere with our bodies and minds, so it's important not to let it take over. However, if you're still feeling uncertain or worried, it might be helpful to schedule an appointment with a gynecologist. They can provide you with more information and help address any concerns you may have.

I am 23 years old and i had unprotected sex before 5 days how can i prevent myself from pregnancy kindly guide me if there any way to help me

Female | 23

If you're worried about pregnancy after unprotected sex, emergency contraception is an option. It works by delaying ovulation, fertilization, or implantation. You can get it for free from a pharmacy or healthcare provider without a prescription. The sooner you take it, the more effective it is. If you have concerns or symptoms, consult a gynecologist for guidance.

Female | 21

The emergency contraceptive that you've taken might have influenced your menstrual cycle, hence, causing a delay in your period. The other likely scenarios for missed periods are either stress or some health conditions. The negative test result shows that you may not be pregnant. But, if your worries do not subside or your period is still absent, you should visit a gynecologist.

Female | 33

It is normal to be worried about a late period. Missed periods can be caused by a multitude of things like stress, hormonal fluctuations, or lifestyle changes. A negative test at home means that you are not pregnant, but the test is not always right. To get a clear answer, my advice is to wait a few days and do another test or consult a gynecologist who can help you.

Female | 32

Asthenozoospermia refers to reduced sperm motility, which can affect fertility. Symptoms may not be obvious, but issues with conception may arise. Various factors can contribute, including hormonal imbalances, lifestyle choices, or underlying medical conditions. To enhance your chances of conception, consider adopting a healthier lifestyle—reducing stress, quitting smoking, and maintaining a balanced diet. Staying active and avoiding excessive alcohol can also help. It's essential to consult a sexologist or a gynecologist. They can perform tests to identify specific issues and recommend appropriate treatments.

I had sex with my boyfriend without protection ( 2 days after my period) ! Then took norix pills instantly .Now it's 33th day. I am not getting my period

Female | 21

It's normal to feel worried about this, but let's break it down. Missing a period after taking emergency contraception like Norix is common. It can mess with your cycle. Stress and hormonal changes can also delay periods. Symptoms may include bloating, breast tenderness, and mood swings. If you're concerned, try a home pregnancy test. Take a deep breath and give your body some time to regulate itself.
