Answered on 22nd Jan '25
Experiencing brown discharge after your period can often indicate old blood being expelled, which may be normal, especially if it's light and not accompanied by discomfort. Possible causes include hormonal fluctuations, changes in cervical mucus, or even the body clearing out remnants from your menstrual cycle. Since you've noticed changes and a previous itching sensation, it would be wise to consult a gynecologist for personalized advice. They can evaluate your situation more thoroughly and ensure there are no underlying issues.

I am 22 year old girl, with height 5'3 and weight 60kg. I had my 2 months delayed periods on 15th August which too lasted only for 2 days while normally they lasts for 6-7 days. I am gaining weight, my breasts and lower belly are increasing. This month too my periods have yet not arrived and since few 2-3 days I am getting white water problem.
Female | 22
You may be encountering some hormonal adjustments. Gaining weight, experiencing shifts in the menstrual cycle, and suffering from a whitish water issue could be because of hormonal imbalance, stress, and even a change of diet. Be sure to eat well, exercise, and practice stress management. Go to the gynecologist for a check-up. They are the right person to help you identify the exact cause and recommend the treatment that works for you.

If u randomly have sexual arousal fluid as a female now and again in the day time after doing no sexual activity, do you need to wash yourself to stop risk of a uti?
Female | 18
If you are a woman who at times experiences “coital fluid” just during the day without engaging in sexual activity, it is recommended that you keep decent hygiene. Cleanliness of the genital area with simple water could reduce the risk of UTI. If any of your problems or the symptoms relapse, you should consult a gynecologist for further examination and recommendation.

I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend on 13 October 2023. I drank morning after pill the following morning then I skipped my periods for 2 months then started bleeding for 14 days in December 2023 Could this be a miscarriage without me knowing I was pregnant
Female | 20
It could be that you had a miscarriage. This happens sometimes without realizing pregnancy. Signs may be heavy bleeding, painful cramps, and passing clots. Unbalanced hormones or issues with the embryo cause it. See a gynecologist if you think it occurred, so they check you're okay.

My periods got delayed and I'm getting light brown liquid discharge with very small blood clots sometimes. What's the reason? Is it normal?
Female | 17
A late period accompanied by light brown discharge with small blood clots is usually the result of hormonal disbalance, stress or pregnancy. I suggest that you see a gynecologist for an examination and appropriate diagnosis. The gynecologist is the best specialist to consult for any problem relating to menstrual health.

Iam 26 year old female I didn't get my periods for two months suddenly and my upt is negative I have urinary tract infection also
Female | 26
It's not rare for women to skip their periods on occasion. UTIs are related to symptoms such as a constant urge to pee, pain during urination, and myalgia. This can be brought by surgical procedures or UTIs can be caused by devices such as catheters. Meanwhile, in the genital area or the perineal regions, including the excess of moisture excretion from the perianal region as well. Drink more fluids, follow personal hygiene rules, and keep eating nutritious meals to most effectively help yourself. Only consider consulting a gynecologist when the signs are severe.

Hey... I'm sadiya...It has been 9 months since my marriage and I want to conceive but nothing has happened till now. This time I started having pain a week before my periods date and on the third day it was very mild bleeding and I felt like implantation bleeding ..but after some hour My proper periods have started and I am still having my periods and I am hoping that I will get pregnant like this, I have never seen this happen before so I am finding it very strange
Female | 23
The pain and bleeding you had can be caused by a lot of things such as hormonal changes or irregular periods. It's good to track your menstrual cycle and ovulation to increase the chances of getting pregnant. A healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet and regular exercise, is a must for you. If the bleeding continues or if you have concerns, it's best to visit a gynecologist.

Can you please prescribe a medicine and dosage to delay my periods?
Female | 35
This can be done by using a medication namely Norethisterone. You routinely start using it, 3 days before the expected date of your periods. The dose is usually 5 milligrams three times daily until you want your period to begin. Take note that consulting a gynecologist first before embarking on any new medication is always recommended.

I am Sana from manipur. i m 20 yrs old. i have been paining one of my breast for 1 year. by the test i have taken recently, it is confirmed that there is a cyst in my breast.also my hair is fallen abnormally. my question is that- is it breast cancer? if yes, what stage it is? is completely curable? what is the immediate step i have to be taken?
Female | 20
A breast cyst is usually not a sign of breast cancer. If your recent tests have confirmed the presence of a cyst, your doctor may recommend additional imaging tests such as a mammogram or ultrasound to evaluate the cyst and determine what is causing the pain.

Solutions can be found with your chiropractor, including the introduction of simple activities such as stretching, maintaining good posture, and using heat therapy can help ease the symptoms. Participation in sports and other physical activities is an important part of one's life, but if your symptoms remain unresolved or get worse, you should consult a gynecologist.

Am 25 years am pregnant but my hemoglobin is 6.7 and am 33 weeks can i give birth by c-section without blood infusion
Female | 25
With a hemoglobin level of 6.7 at 33 weeks pregnant, it’s important to address potential anemia symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, and shortness of breath. This condition may impact your delivery options and overall health. While some women can have a cesarean section without a blood transfusion, the best course of action is to consult your gynecologist who can evaluate your situation and provide needed interventions, like iron supplements or blood products if necessary, to ensure a safe delivery.

Female | 18
Initially, some women may suffer from the psychological pressure of using a condom for the first time, which may slow the menstrual cycle. Moreover, hormone fluctuations, changes in diet, or lifestyle changes can also play a role. If you think of pregnancy, you can test your urine to see. If you find that this problem does not exist or there are other effects, it is better to consult a gynecologist.

Hello, I'm 29 years trying to conceive and currently on my first cycle of letrozol 5mg per day. I started taking it on day 3 -7 of my cycle.I'm told to have sex on day 12,14 and 16. My period usually 10-14 days long. I'm currently still on my menstrual cycle, how does this work? How am I to have sex on day 12?
Female | 29
Letrozole is a drug that can cause your body to ovulate. Therefore, it is going to be easier for you to become pregnant. It is common practice to start taking it on days 3-7 of your period. You may still have sex on the 12th day of your cycle even if your period is usually regular for a long time.

I m 42 years old. I have a painful minstruation cycle and regularly every month happen. I have also a 8 years old boy. But now I'm trying for baby for last 1 years seriously. Have adinomyosis or Endometriosis like that. how can i sure the accurate result of my disease.i's it MRI of pelvic or any other test. I have to fail ivf 1st time also.
Female | 42
You may have adenomyosis or endometriosis which can cause painful periods and infertility. Your doctor might suggest an MRI of your pelvis for an accurate diagnosis. These conditions occur when tissue grows where it should not be which results in symptoms like heavy bleeding during the menstruation cycle along with severe cramps; sometimes even problems related to the inability to become pregnant can also be experienced. The treatment options vary depending on each person’s particular case but they could involve drugs, hormone therapy, or surgery among others. Collaborate with your gynecologist to address this matter.

Gòod day i am 11 weeks pregnant and do not have all of the pains i had for the 10 weeks is it normal?
Female | 29
It’s normal to have different symptoms come and go during pregnancy. You may not have as many aches and pains as before, which is typical. Your body might be getting used to all the changes inside it. Most of the time though, unless they’re accompanied by severe cramps or bleeding, feeling no pain is fine. Keep yourself hydrated and rested all these months. But if it bothers you, then talk to a gynecologist.

I am 1 week late for my period but the pregnancy test is negative
Female | 19
It's understandable to be concerned when your cycle is delayed, especially with a negative test result. Factors like stress, changes in weight, hormonal imbalances, or even certain medications can influence your menstrual cycle. It's also possible to experience false negatives if the test is taken too early. If your period doesn’t start soon or if you have other unusual symptoms, I recommend consulting a gynecologist for a thorough evaluation. This way, you can receive personalized guidance and reassurance tailored to your situation.
