Why are my periods irregular at age 20?
I am a 20-year-old female experiencing irregular menstrual cycles. My periods are often delayed or prolonged, and I'm concerned about the potential causes and treatment options. Could you please provide me with information on the common causes of irregular menstrual cycles in women under 25 and the recommended treatment options?

Answered on 28th Dec '24
Young females frequently experience irregular menstrual cycles because of different causes like the effects of excess hormones, stress, diet, excessive exercise, or suffering such as (PCOS) polycystic ovary syndrome. Some of the symptoms are not getting periods or getting heavy periods. The treatment modalities are usually lifestyle changes such as a balanced diet and stress control. Hormonal contraceptives can also help in regulating the cycle effectively. It is best to consult with a gynecologist who, after a detailed review, can guide you on the personalized approach.

I am a 44 years old woman, I missed my period for the passed three (3) months, and experiencing severe burning sensation on my lower back and lower abdomen.
Female | 44
Three months without your periods and having a burning sensation in your lower back and abdomen are alarming. The reasons for these side effects are varied: hormonal imbalance, stress, or even infections can be the cause. To get a correct evaluation and medication, it is necessary to see a gynecologist.

3month periods nahi a rhe hai TEST SAB NORMAL HAI PLS HELP ME KYA MAI LYCOVIV-L SOFT GELATIN CAPSULES LE SKTI HU Mera baby 2year ka hai
Female | 26
You haven't gotten your period for 3 months, but your tests were normal. I get why that's worrying you. Stress, hormone issues, or other factors can cause missed periods. The smart move is seeing a gynecologist to figure out what's going on. Taking Lycoviv-L soft gelatin capsules on your own might not be wise. A doctor should examine you thoroughly first, then recommend the right treatment plan.

After unprotected sex , I have taken my first I pill tablet under 24hr , and the second tablet om 3rd day , the sex happened on the last day of periods, there is any chance to get pregnant ?
Female | 15
After unprotected intercourse, taking the emergency contraceptive pill (I-pill) can prevent pregnancy by blocking fertilization. Since you took it within 24 hours, it is more effective. Having sex on the last day of your period usually means a lower chance of pregnancy. Pregnancy symptoms typically appear after a few weeks, but missed periods or nausea can also be signs. If you're feeling anxious, consider taking a pregnancy test.

I am pregnant 2 month but mide day night sex so problem bloding raning
Female | 28
Bleeding during the early stages of pregnancy can be a sign of a problem, particularly when it comes after sex. It could be because of a condition called a threatened miscarriage. Cramping and lower back pain may also be among other symptoms. It is essential to visit a gynecologist immediately for correct diagnosis and treatment.

Female | 18
You might be experiencing painful periods, also called dysmenorrhea. The cramps happen because your uterus is contracting to shed its lining. It’s common to feel pain, nausea, chills, and even diarrhea during this time. To ease the discomfort, you can try using a heating pad on your lower belly, taking ibuprofen, which you can buy over the counter, or talking to a gynecologist about other treatments. These cramps often get better as you get older, but if they continue, a doctor can help you find the best solution.

Hai sir/madam I'm suffering with small pcod problem plz give suggestions
Female | 28
PCOS is a hormonal disorder in which ovaries produce excess androgens and that cause cyst formation. You didn't exactly mention the problem you are facing. But these common symptoms include irregular periods, weight gain, acne, and infertility. I suggest you consult a gynecologist who will perform a physical exam, recommend tests, and prescribe medication accordingly.

Female | 21
Taking the Ipill twice in a short period is not recommended it should only be used as emergency contraception. if you're worried about pregnancy take a test to confirm. However, periods can be delayed due to stress, changes in diet, or other health issues.. Consult a gynecologist for evaluation.

The situation involves a couple who recently engaged in sexual activity on two occasions—once without a condom and later with a condom. Following this, the female partner experienced an unusual discharge after masturbating at home. About two hours after the masturbation, she noticed a long, transparent substance discharging while using the washroom. Concerned about the nature of this discharge, the couple is uncertain whether it is a normal bodily response or something that requires medical attention, leading to a suggestion to consult a doctor for clarity.
Female | 19
The clear discharge the female partner suffered from might be normal vaginal discharge. Vaginal discharge keeps the vagina healthy. It's either clear or white yet can be sleek or lumpy, often with clumps within. If the discharge, however, has a strong odor, itches, or irritates, then it could be that an infection is the reason for it. It is crucial not to overlook any other developments in addition to what has been observed. You can consult a gynecologist.

Female | 21
Your concerns about vaginal discharge and cramps may indicate potential issues. These symptoms are often related to hormonal changes, stress, or an infection. Yeast infections are a common cause of these symptoms. To ease discomfort, try wearing breathable cotton underwear, avoiding scented products, and practicing good hygiene. However, if the symptoms persist despite these self-care measures, it's important to visit a gynecologist for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Female | 22
Implantation bleeding occurs when a fertilized egg attaches to the uterus. This early pregnancy sign involves pink or brown spotting. However, hormonal changes or infections can also cause these symptoms. Take a home pregnancy test if you suspect pregnancy. But seek a gynecologist help quickly if bleeding gets heavy or painful.

Iam 25 years old . Iam suffering from back pain and cramps. I used uterus cleaning pill on day 5 of my last period . Now my period is 11 days late . what could be the cause
Female | 25
A possible explanation could be late menstruation due to your body adjusting to those hormones. Your issues might be due to stress, an unhealthy diet, or something more serious. It's vital to stay cool and track your symptoms. To relieve physical discomfort, you can try moves that don't involve immense pain or heat therapy. You can also buy and utilize over-the-counter pain relief. On the other hand, I advise you to consult a gynecologist for a comprehensive health check.

My wife is 9 months pregnant and her sugar level is high. So I need some suggestions and how she can have a normal baby in this situation or not. The last baby is already born by cesarean.
Female | 28
If your wife's sugar levels are high during pregnancy, it's important to consult a specialist, such as an obstetrician or a maternal-fetal medicine specialist. They can provide personalized advice and monitoring to help manage her condition and ensure the best possible outcome for both her and the baby.

Hello, I did an abortion 4 weeks ago .the pregnancy was like 2 weeks or 3 weeks old. I bled and there were some clots but it only lasted for 3 days . I tested for pregnancy last week on Monday and the results came out positive. What could be the problem?
Female | 23
It appears that you underwent a medical abortion four weeks ago but are still getting positive pregnancy test results. Keep in mind that your pregnancy hormone levels can be elevated for some time even after an abortion. Consequently, a pregnancy test may still be positive even though the pregnancy has already been terminated. My recommendation is to monitor how you feel and then contact your gynecologist to have it checked out further.

Female | 22
If you had unprotected sex during your fertile window, there's possiblity that you could be pregnant. But also the absence of period symptoms does not necessarily mean that you are pregnant. The only way to confirm a pregnancy is to take a pregnancy test or check with a gynec.

I'm a 28years old female, I have foreplay with my man on Sunday and he was putting on boxer and I was putting on short then he release,I could feel the wetness on my short,can I get pregnant in that process?
Female | 28
No, you cannot get pregnant through clothing during foreplay. For pregnancy to occur, sperm needs to directly enter the vagina. However, if you have concerns about pregnancy or sexual health, it’s best to visit a gynecologist for proper advice and guidance.

I’d taken an unwanted 72 within 3 hours of contraceptive failure and i experience extreme pain in my breasts and stomach I’m gonna get my period this week should I take a test? Or am I pregnant?
Female | 20
72 is a one-day medicine that could cause breast tenderness and stomach pain. The above symptoms may indicate an early pregnancy. It is already late for your period, so you should just wait and see if everything is okay. If you are worried, you could take a pregnancy test after the missed period. You can also consult a gynecologist.

I am a 31yr old lady. I have been experiencing some weird milk white vaginal discharge. Please help
Female | 31
The milk-white vaginal discharge you have might be a result of a common fungus named yeast infection. You may also have some discomforts like redness, and itching along with the discharge. You may use antifungal creams or tablets available without a prescription. It's best to avoid tight clothes and keep the area dry to prevent this from happening again. Remember to practice good hygiene and to wear breathable underwear. If the problem doesn't go away, visit a gynecologist.

I am 22 years old girl and my problem is i have blood spotting via vagina before 5 days of periods with little stomach pain
Female | 22
You may be having something known as "spotting" before your period starts. Spotting has various causes, such as hormonal changes, stress, and occasionally infection. The slight stomach ache could be the body getting ready for your period. To manage this, try to lower stress levels, eat well, and drink plenty of water. If it continues or worsens, talk to a gynecologist.

I'm 27 years old,I finished my period on the 21st of ds money and I'm ovulating now ,the thing is I've been having sticky creamy discharge and today I'm seeing blood discharge now with burning when I pee , I've been down with fever please what is wrong with me?
Female | 27
Urinary tract infections cause symptoms like blood in urine, burning during urination, and fever. Though discharge can change during ovulation, blood is worrying. Drinking plenty of water helps flush out bacteria. But, you'll need to see a urologist for proper diagnosis and treatment. UTIs are common infections that require medical care. Changing discharge is normal during ovulation, yet blood indicates concern. Staying hydrated combats infection, but medical attention is crucial.
