It is not so uncommon to have a missed period if you are diagnosed with PCOS. Other causes that may lead to irregular periods can include stress, weight changes, or hormonal imbalances. If your period still doesn't come in a week, take a pregnancy test or talk to your doctor for guidance. Irregular periods are often part of the PCOS condition, yet a gynecologist can shed more light on your overall health.

Is bleeding with PCOS and BV common after long gap?
Bleeding may sometimes occur as a result of infection-causing bacterial vaginosis. It’s not something that happens very often, but it is possible. The small clots and brown period you’re seeing could be due to that. Since you were not getting periods for a long time, the bleeding now could be a bit different. Make sure to chat with your gynecologist to confirm everything's okay and to get the right treatment.

Is vaginal stretching for labor prep normal every 2 weeks?
It is normal for some women who are about to give birth and need vaginal stretching first. This is what is known as a perineal massage. It has the advantages of preventing tears during delivery and increasing elasticity. Symptoms like tightness can make labor harder. The stretching is the work of a gynecologist who ensures it is done safely. A technique like this can lead to a more seamless experience of childbirth; thus, it is a common practice.

What is the Treatment for Vaginal Irritation Despite Clotrimazole?
This could be a yeast infection, for instance. Standard signs are itching, burning, redness, and uncommon discharge. Using clotrimazole once a day may not be sufficient. Consider using an over-the-counter antifungal cream like Monistat and following the instructions closely to make it more effective. Also, ensure clean underwear and breathable material are used while avoiding scented products in that area. In case the irritation persists, seek an opinion of a gynecologist.

Why Do I Have Swelling Above Vaginal Opening?
You may be suffering from a disorder called a Bartholin cyst. This lump can sometimes form right above your vagina when the Bartholin's gland gets blocked. The region could be sensitive, and you may feel a slight lump. Usually, Bartholin cysts are harmless and can be treated with warm compresses and soaking in the bathtub. If the swelling persists or continues to get bigger, it's advisable to see a gynecologist to find out the other treatment options. Remember to avoid squeezing or popping the cyst yourself; this may result in an infection.

Do I Need Pregnancy Test After No Penetration and Periods?
If your partner's menstrual period came on time after a non-penetrative or non-ejaculative sexual activity and it was a normal period, she is most likely not pregnant. Symptoms like a missed period could mean pregnancy, but she does not have them. The timely occurrence of the menstrual flow is an encouraging aspect. No other tests could be necessary. Just keep track of her symptoms and if anything unusual happens, consult a gynecologist.

Could I be pregnant without using a test?
It's common to wonder if you're pregnant when you miss a period and have cramps. These are often the first signs of pregnancy. Uterine cramps can happen as the uterus changes due to pregnancy. However, other factors like stress or health issues can also cause missed periods and cramps. To be sure and get the right care, it's best to see a gynecologist for a pregnancy test.

Could Endometrial Cancer Spread to Ear and Chest?
Having growth in one area doesn't always mean cancer has spread to other parts of the body. The ear blockage and chest pain you’re experiencing could be due to other reasons, like earwax buildup or acid reflux. Make sure to tell your doctors about all your symptoms and ask them to run more tests to better understand what's going on. Regular check-ups and following your gynecologist’s advice can help find a solution to your problems.
