I want to know about the number of hospitals, Dr. Priyanka Pipara

When a woman is pregnant, she might experience missed periods, nausea, and being constantly tired. However, stress can also bring these signs. Sometimes getting tested one week after intercourse may not give accurate results. If you want to be more certain, wait longer and do another test.

Question for OBGYN or anyone in women’s health: I am 25F and have been using the Evra estrogen+progesterone patch (Canadian version) since February 2023 (almost 3 years) due to abnormally heavy periods leading to anemia. It has essentially stopped my period. For the last year only, since April, my “periods” (or breakthrough bleeding) have become more regular, occurring every 3 months or so. I usually will remove the patch when it starts to allow myself to shed any excess lining. But more recently I have been shedding extremely thick clots of coagulated blood/lining, multiple times an hour, each clot about the size of the palm of my hand. This coupled with EXTREMELY heavy bleeding. I use the largest and thickest available overnight pads throughout the day and night, and each one is soaked through in about an hour, along with 2-3 large jelly-like clots sitting on top of the pad which I have to pick up manually and dispose of in the toilet. I can feel the clots passing most often when moving from sitting to standing, as it is accompanied by a wave of abdominal pain and then the uncomfortable sensation of passing a large mass of tissue. I went to the ER the first time this started happening as I was worried about the blood loss. They instructed me to take iron supplements (which I already do) and told me it was normal on the patch - but it isn’t typical for me. It’s been impossible to find a doctor available nearby so I was hoping to get some more insight into why this is suddenly starting to happen, and whether it’s safe for me to continue on the Evra patch. Thank you so much for any help.

Female | 25

Some breakthrough bleeding can be normal on the patch, the sudden increase in clot size and frequency is definitely concerning. It's important to rule out any underlying issues causing this. In fact, such heavy bleeding and clotting could be due to changes in your hormonal balance or even conditions like fibroids. I recommend seeking a gynecologist for a thorough evaluation. In the meantime, continue taking your iron supplements and consider using a menstrual cup for better monitoring.

Female | 25

One can lead to miscarriages in several ways, which include a blow to the abdomen or genetic factors. The possible reason for the positive test might be the presence of pregnancy hormones in your body, which may be slow to decline after a miscarriage. It is essential to keep an eye on your symptoms. In case you experience unbearable pain, dizziness, or heavy bleeding, call the doctor right away. I highly suggest getting advice and aid from a gynecologist to get individualized care as well as to make sure everything is alright.

Hi my daughter need internal altra sound scan.for Overy cyst.we are muslim.i see online device that use to do internal scan.can you explain for me for un married girls.

Female | 16

I understand your concerns regarding your daughter’s situation. Ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs that can occur in the ovaries and might cause symptoms like pelvic pain or irregular periods. Internal ultrasound is a common and safe procedure used to visualize these cysts. For unmarried women, this procedure is medically appropriate and performed for privacy and comfort. It’s important to discuss any worries with a gynecologist who can guide you through the process and recommend the best course of action. Seeking professional advice helps ensure the best care for your daughter’s health.

Female | 27

The spotting you are having may be indicative of hormonal imbalance. You should get plenty of healthy food and include regular workouts into your daily routine so as to control your period flow. The most important thing is you will reduce your stress level. If the problem does not go away, it is imperative to consult a gynecologist.

I have whites discharge mixed light blood past 2 days today I have mild bleeding morning Evening light heavy bleeding but not pain i have

Female | 24

Some discharge is common, but mixing with blood could signal an issue. Morning's mild bleeding and tonight's heavier flow, though painless, demand attention. Infections, hormone shifts, or cervical problems — the causes vary. Visiting a gynecologist is wise; they'll pinpoint the reason and provide proper care.

I had sex on April 5th which was on my 9th day of periods and I got periods regular on 25th April .but now my periods was delay , my due date was 23th may and it showing some symptoms like mood swings, frequent urination. Am I pregnant?

Female | 19

You might be pregnant based on what you’ve said. Mood swings and having to pee all the time are both symptoms of pregnancy that can occur very early on. This is because of the hormones in your body changing. The only way to know for sure if you’re pregnant or not is by taking a home pregnancy test. If it comes out positive then you need to see a gynecologist so they can help take care of things properly.

I am a 25 year old female who is currently 6 weeks pregnant. I have had 2 blighted ovums in 3 years apart. The scan has shown even this pregnancy is a blighted ovum. Is there a possibility of me having a normal pregnancy as I have had 2 blighted ovums already with 2 different partners. Please assist.

Female | 24

Blighted ovum, which is also called the synonym "anembryonic pregnancy," is a situation where a fertilized egg is implanted in the uterus, but the embryo does not develop. I understand your worries about having two blighted ovums one after the other were scary. The most important thing is to consult your doctor, who knows the potential causes and comes up with the possible solutions that allow you to have a healthy pregnancy in the future. You could have further examinations which are done to help decide if there is an underlying factor that is causing this to happen multiple times.

Here’s a draft for your query: In November, I experienced an episode of oral herpes. On December 4, I developed vaginal itching, a thick white discharge, and sores resembling vestibular papillomatosis. I consulted a doctor who diagnosed me with a yeast infection. After taking the prescribed treatment, my symptoms improved. However, I started experiencing vaginal burning and frequent urination. A urine test was conducted, but the results came back negative. I then consulted a gynecologist, who advised me to take a herpes test on December 28. The test results showed HSV IgG positive and IgM negative. Despite treatment, I still have sores that appear pearly, along with a burning sensation. Do I have HSV-2?

Female | 31

Your positive IgG test for herpes, suggests an encounter with the virus in the past, often related to HSV-2, which can pathogenize genitals. The symptoms you’re dealing with, like sores and burning sensations, could come from this infection or some other illness. You should talk to a gynecologist, who may have custom suggestions and point you toward prodrug therapy. Readings and more examinations could offer a better view of your case.

I had sexual intercourse on 7 November. I had got my periods on 22 November but in December I have missed my periods what should I do is it concerning or not

Female | 19

It’s common for menstrual cycles to vary due to several factors, including stress, hormonal changes, or lifestyle adjustments. Missing a period can be concerning, especially following recent sexual activity, but it doesn’t always indicate a serious issue. Consider taking a home pregnancy test if you suspect you might be pregnant. Regardless of the result, scheduling an appointment with a gynecologist is a wise choice to discuss your cycle changes and any underlying factors.

Female | 29

An NT measurement of 4.21 mm could signal increased chances of conditions like Down syndrome. Don't get too stressed yet, though. More tests can provide clearer insights. Your gynecologist might suggest extra screenings, like blood work or amniocentesis, to better assess things.

I have missed my periods and I have taken the pregnancy test for 3 Times its shows negative for the 3 times

Female | Vismaya

Sometimes, even if the test shows negative, it doesn't always rule out pregnancy. Other factors like stress, hormonal imbalances, excessive exercise, or changes in weight can also cause missed periods. It might be a good idea to visit a gynecologist for a thorough evaluation. They can offer further tests to determine the underlying cause and provide appropriate guidance. In the meantime, try to stay calm and take care of yourself.

My last period was 26 March and I think I conceived on the 3rd or 4th of may. My cycles are usually 40 days long and I’m getting all pregnancy symptoms but negative or faint tests

Female | 22

If your last period was on March 26 and you suspect pregnancy from early May, pregnancy tests might not show accurate results if taken too early. Wait at least a week after a missed period for a more reliable test. Use your first morning urine for better accuracy.

Female | 46

The itching and pain in your vagina might be due to a fungal infection, especially if you recently took antibiotics. The discomfort due to fungi can be treated. Using Candid V6 was a good start, but if the itching persists, you may need to see another gynecologist for further advice. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry and avoid tight clothing.

Mere periods ko miss hue 6th day ho gye h or ajj achanak se mujhe blood aa raha halka halka toh kya ye normal h

Female | 24

You're detecting the most likely side effects of your use of birth control. Passing light bleeding out of your cycle or period can occur at rare moments. This bleeding outside of the period can be due to hormonal fluctuations, stress, or fluctuations in weight. You may keep an eye on the bleeding if it is not heavy and stops by itself. However, if it persists or you have any doubts, you should consult a gynecologist for tailored advice.
