Why Can't I Sleep During Periods?
Why can't I sleep during my periods?
Social Obstetrics And Gynecologist
Answered on 22nd July '24
It is quite usual for a girl to have a hard time sleeping during her period. One of the major factors behind this is hormonal changes. During menstruation, your body releases more prostaglandins, which can lead to cramps and affect your sleep patterns. You can also have problems sleeping because of the feeling of fullness, irritation, and anxiety. To feel better, one may try drinking calming tea, applying a heating pad, and relaxing around bedtime.

Kidney stone problem , stone size is 9.3 mm in mid pole and lump in uterus
Female | 38
To take care of this condition one may be required to drink huge amounts of water, and drugs and in extreme cases go through an operation to remove it altogether. A lump found inside a woman’s womb might result in irregular periods; you should see a urologist/gynecologist who will look into it more and decide on proper treatment.

I am a 23 year old female. I had sexual intercourse with my boyfriend and took the morning after pill three times in one month. We had sexual intercourse twice in a span of two weeks and I took the morning after pill both times. Then I got my period so we stopped, when I came off we had sexual intercourse again and I took the morning after pill, then a few days later got heavy bleeding like a period for 6-7 days. Since then we haven’t had any sexual intercourse. This was last month. This month I haven’t gotten my period yet. It’s delayed. Is it because the morning after pills alters hormones? Or am I pregnant?
Female | 23
Since you took the morning after pill multiple times within a month may have altered your menstrual cycle and caused a delay in your period. But there is still a possibility of pregnancy even if you have taken the morning after pill. Because emergency contraception is not 100% effective in preventing pregnancy, and repeated use of the pill within a short period of time may decrease its effectiveness.

I am a 27 year old female and I always get my periods regularly, and my last period was on 17th October 2024, and my next cycle was supposed to be on 13th November. But instead, I got my period today (1st November). I got it 13 days before my regular cycle. What could be the reason?
Female | 27
It’s normal for periods to arrive a bit early or late occasionally. An early period can be caused by stress, changes in diet or exercise, or hormonal imbalances. If an irregular period happens only once, it’s usually not a cause for concern. Just focus on maintaining your physical and mental health, eating a balanced diet, and managing stress. However, if irregular periods continue, see a gynecologist for a check-up.

I had a surgical abortion 5 weeks ago and I have been feeling good and the day before yesterday I started having abdominal cramps and pelvic pains but I'm not bleeding.what could be the problem.
Female | 27
It's normal to have cramps after a surgical abortion. It is sometimes seen that your body needs time to finish healing. Abdominal cramps and pelvic pain might happen because your uterus is adjusting. Besides, you might have a positive result of infection. If the pain is getting stronger or the fever is high, call a gynecologist. Resting, drinking water, and a warm compress can help relieve the discomfort.

I am in 27 week pregnancy n in grow scan lateral ventricle measures 9mm which was previously 7mm in tiffa scan at 19 week.. whether it will be normal or grow i am worried.. dual marker test was negative as well as other routine scans like nt/nb, tiffa all are ok with no issue at all..
Female | 26
An increase in the measurement of the lateral ventricles in fetal ultrasound, especially if it's a mild increase, may not necessarily indicate a severe issue. It's important to remember that ultrasound measurements can sometimes have a margin of error. Please consult a gynecologist in your locality for proper diagnosis.

After having fibroids removed in December 2022, if you want to get pregnant, it's important to consult your gynecologist or surgeon for personalized advice. They will determine when it's safe for you to start trying to conceive based on your specific case and recovery progress.

I am on the pill (Yasmin) as I used get really heavy periods,cramps and a nerve pain in my right ovaries near my hip that would also travel down my leg. When I take my four day break from the pill I experience really heavy bleeding with clots and really sore cramps. The pill has not changed anything to do with the nerve pain by my ovaries. It still is the same. I’ve been to loads of doctors and they all say it’s just my period, or its normal but I feel it really isn’t. None of my friends go through pain like this ever. The cramps are worse when I am active, it’s as if its a flare up of something and activity triggers it. They get so bad I can’t walk and have to just crouch down til they go away. This cannot be normal, can it?
Female | 18
Severe pain that interferes with daily activities and is not relieved by medication or hormonal contraception.. requires further evaluation. Seek a second opinion if your think your current medication is not working for you.

I was 6 weeks 1 day pregnant and had an abortionDo you have symptoms like low energy, headache, body pain, chest pain, fast heartbeat, digestive problems, trouble sleeping, high blood pressure, irritability, general unhappiness, anxiety, moodiness, etc., along with missed periods?
Female | 29
The symptoms you're experiencing may be related to hormonal changes after your abortion. Low energy, headaches, body pain, and mood changes are common. However, if you’re feeling severe chest pain, fast heartbeat, or high blood pressure, it’s important to consult a gynecologist as soon as possible. They can assess your condition and provide the right treatment.

My period are missed and discharge is coming so much
Female | 14
Excessive discharge and non-existent periods might have several causes. Some examples are hormonal imbalances, stress, certain medications, or underlying health conditions. You must also be observant of other signs such as pain in the abdomen or alterations in your appetite, in addition to those problems. Drinking water, eating properly, and stress control through relaxation can sometimes boost your cycle's regularity. In case the symptoms continue and become more severe, visit a gynecologist.

Pelvic pain and frequent urination for the past 4-5 hours
Female | 24
Urine infections and bladder troubles often cause pelvic pain and frequent urination. Common germs invade urinary tract parts, like the bladder or kidneys, sparking UTI. But irritants -- foods, drinks -- may also disturb the bladder, leading to the same issues. Hydrating well and dodging irritants helps relieve symptoms. However, see doctor for proper assessment and cure.

I have recently had unprotected sex thrice. I also consumed ipill all those times the next morning itself. The last time I had unprotected sex was on 15th May and ipill on 16th may morning. Past 2-3 days I have been getting very bad cramps in my lower abdomen and I'm bleeding (spotting) blood clots. I have PCOD and I do not get my periods. I get it very rarely, twice or thrice in a year. I don't remember my last period date. Are these the side effects of the ipill or are there any chances of pregnancy/miscarriage?
Female | 23
The cramps and bleeding with blood clots might be caused by the ipill. It can change menstrual bleeding at times. However, because your periods are irregular and you have polycystic ovarian syndrome, other possible reasons should not be left out. These signs could also result from hormonal variations or maybe pregnancy is on the way. See a gynecologist who will help find out what these mean.

Mam mere periods 22 June ko aaye the aur abhi tak nhi aaye hai aaj 2nd August ho gya kya kre
Female | 20
If you were expecting your periods on June 22nd but it's now August 2nd, I can imagine how worried you might be. A few of the most frequent reasons why periods are delayed are stress, sudden weight changes, hormonal imbalances, and even changes in routine. Are you now suffering any of the symptoms like abnormal cramps or mood swings? Stay calm and allow it some more time. If your period still hasn't come after a couple of days, talking to a gynecologist would be a great idea to rule out any possible problems.

Hi, I got just removed iud ,I'm 9 weeks pregnant but I still bleed , is pregnancy safe or not ?
Female | 39
Hemorrhaging after the removal of the IUD during pregnancy is no longer an unfamiliar problem. Still, I would recommend consulting with a gynecologist or obstetrician before undertaking any such activity to ascertain the safety of the pregnancy.

if i had unprotected sex over 48 hours ago but missed my mini pill today shoukd i take emergency contraception
Female | 19
Not taking one mini-pill and having unprotected sex may greatly increase the chance of getting pregnant. Within 48 hours is the best time to use emergency contraception. Emergency contraception acts by stopping or delaying ovulation in the body. If you're uncertain about pregnancy, taking emergency contraception would be the best way to lower the chances.

my period is 15 days late, when I check with pregnancy kit ,Its show negative. From the date of period white discharge continued about 1 week, then Normal. But now about 2 day ,I feel pain in lower abdomen and back side.
Female | 25
A period being late while the test is negative can occur due to different reasons like stress or changes in hormones. The pain felt in the lower part of the stomach together with the back might be caused by several things such as periods. Ensure you rest well, and drink plenty of water but if the ache continues or becomes severe then visit a gynecologist.

I AM 20 yrs . My periods was 15 apr and 21 apr someone's sperm fall in my back then I washed. No sex no penetration just sperm fell in my back. Nd his penis just touch my vagina outside. This month my periods come 16 may , it's possible I'm pregnent or not
Female | Umisha
There isn’t a high possibility that you are pregnant. For pregnancy to occur, the sperm must get to the vagina and not just through touch on the outer parts. Also, the fact that your period came in time is a positive sign. If you’re still anxious about it, you could take a pregnancy test just for assurance.
