Gynaecology

Answered by Dr. Mohit Saraogi

Sometimes hormonal imbalances, thyroid issues, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), or even stress can lead to prolonged periods. It's important to rule out any underlying medical conditions. I recommend you see a gynecologist for a proper evaluation. In the meantime, make sure you stay hydrated, get plenty of rest, and consider using a heating pad for any discomfort.

for a whole week straight, my labia has been itchy. i have also been having white sticky discharge and sometimes it could be a faint yellow. there is no odor and no pain, just itchiness. today, i felt a bump like feeling on my labia and i’m guessing it’s a cyst.

Female | 17

Itching and discharge could mean a yeast infection. A common issue, causing irksome itchiness, thick yellowish gunk, and sometimes bump too. Over-the-counter antifungal creams can provide relief. Keeping clean and dry down there also helps. Drink lots of water, and wear breathable cotton undies.

I have missed my periods for 4th day which are always regular . I had an unprotected sex with my partner also. Today I got thick a little stick vaginal discharge also ... does it mean that I am pregnant

Female | 17

A missing period, having unprotected sex, and thick vaginal discharge could mean pregnancy. Other common symptoms include sore breasts, tiredness, and needing to pee often. But these signs don't always mean pregnancy. It's best to take a pregnancy test to know for sure. If positive, see a gynecologist for advice.

I had black vaginal discharge for like 8 days does it effect something in my body ,why does it happen and how long it take time to disappear

Female | 21

Black discharge from the vagina can seem worrying, but it's okay. It could mean old blood is leaving your body. Hormonal shifts, infections, or certain medicines may cause this. Visiting a gynecologist is wise to find the precise reason. The discharge should stop within days or a couple of weeks.

Im 16 year old female and i started having irregular periods since i dont know how many months but they used to be regular before. My previous cycle was 25 days and the one before it was 35 days, now its been 37 days and i still havent gotten my period.

Female | 16

A variety of things can cause irregular periods, including hormonal imbalances, stress, significant weight changes, or conditions such as PCOS. Cycles are usually a little unequal – if this persists though, it might be worth talking about with your gynecologist. They’ll be able to work out why and what to do next.

I am 20 week pregnant my 20 week scanning report noted stomach bubble not visualized

Female | 29

When no stomach bubble appears on a 20-week pregnancy scan, it may signify a concern. This could stem from the baby's positioning, gestational age discrepancy, or an issue with the stomach itself. Occasionally, the scan quality hinders clear visibility. Consult your gynecologist for additional assessment and recommendations.

Female | 22

One should seek consultation from a gynecologist who specializes in PCOD. Short and painful periods are typical cases of PCOD. The presence of cysts in the left ovary necessitates medical attention as well. The doctor may recommend treatment via medication or surgery based on the level of severity. Timely medical help should be sought to prevent any complications.

I had unprotected sex almost immediately after my periods ended. (After 2 days). I took unwanted 72 right after the unprotected sex. Is it safe? It's been 18 days since then

Female | 21

Taking Unwanted 72 after unprotected sex can help in case of pregnancy. It might have to be mentioned that young people should take it within 72 hours. Since the usual menstruation time has passed and in the meantime, you've already got your period, the symptoms you may develop are mostly related to the bleeding. Spotting or changes in the menstrual cycle are the main issues after taking the pill.

hello mam, My period date 3 noember hoti. At that time I had my period but since December I have not had a period. If I check with pregnancy kit, it is showing negative, even though it has been 2 months today, there is still no period, what should I do? There is no hit in my body.

Female | 27

In the case of a missed period, it\'s certainly understandable to be worried, especially after two months! Stress is one of the factors affecting the menstrual cycle, along with hormonal changes, changes in weight, and picking up some underlying health conditions, which can also be the case. If you have been getting negative pregnancy tests, it would be a good idea to keep track of your symptoms and note any alterations in your body. Seek a gynecologist for a comprehensive road test.

I am a 20 year old woman. I'm suffering from acne from past few years, but now that've researched about it I realized that I have symptoms of PCOS. I do have hair growth on my face, stomach, back, etc. I get irregular periods by a week or 2. My bmi is normal so that is not considered. I struggle alot with it. I compare myself to women with clear and hairless bodies. I need a solution.

Other | 20

PCOS brings hormonal issues that affect the ovaries. It causes irregular periods and undesirable hair growth like acne or extra body hair. A doctor may recommend changes to lifestyle, take medicines, or suggest treatments to control symptoms. See a gynecologist for proper diagnosis and management. They can best assess whether you have PCOS based on your particular symptoms.

I had sex on the 20th of this month and my last period was on the 27th last month which I took post pills the day after the sex, will I still be pregnant?

Female | 25

The above-mentioned period is your last one that happened on the 27th of last month and your sexual intercourse took place on the 20th of this month which leads you to take post pills after which there is a chance you might still be pregnant because those pills are most effective. Pregnancy may cause such symptoms as a missed period, nausea, and breast tenderness. To be sure, take a pregnancy test or speak with a gynecologist.

Is it normal to bleed for 15 days after first Intercourse?

Female | 19

Some blood may appear after sexual intimacy for the first time. But, heavy bleeding for fifteen full days seems unusual. This likely means an injury occurred inside the vagina, or there is an infection present. It is wise to have a gynecologist examine you thoroughly for proper treatment recommendations.

I am 26 years female and I'm having prolactation for 1 year now, I'm not pregnant nor breastfeeding a child and I experience pain during sex

Female | 26

You might have hyperprolactinemia. What happens is this condition leads to the body producing too much of a hormone called prolactin, causing lactation and pain during sex. There are several possible causes, including some medicines you could be on; thyroid problems, or even a little tumor in your brain somewhere. I would advise that you see a doctor as soon as possible.
