Why do I have on-and-off hiccups since yesterday night?
Hiccups are little jumps in your body when the muscles around your chest and stomach twitch. They can arise from eating too quickly, excitement, and anxiety. Typically, they pass away on their own after a brief period. You may attempt drinking water more slowly or breathing deeply, to calm them down. If they continue for a long time and are a nuisance to you, let someone know to make sure everything is okay.

Why haven't I reached puberty at 17?
The reason is that each person achieves puberty at their age. Not developing breasts or getting a period by a certain age are some signs of delayed puberty. The reasons may be different. For example, a person's family history can play a role or some specific medical conditions may be involved. A well-balanced diet, regular exercise, and having a conversation with a nutritionist can be helpful to tackle the issue of delayed puberty.

Could I be pregnant after Depo and morning-after pill?
Based on what you've told me, the chances of you being pregnant are slim. The emergency contraceptive pill is effective if taken shortly after unprotected sex. Women can experience nausea and abdominal discomfort as side effects of the pill, which do not necessarily imply that they are pregnant.

Taking an emergency contraceptive pill within 24 hours of unprotected sex can greatly reduce the chance of pregnancy, but it is not 100% effective. So how to know if unwanted 72 has worked? It's the bleeding you experienced which is a common side effect of the pill and is a sign that the pill is working to prevent pregnancy.

8 Months Unattended Kidney Cyst
Discovering kidney cysts can be frightening, but stay calm—they're usually harmless and symptom-free. However, if you experience back pain, blood in your urine, or high blood pressure, see a nephrologist promptly. They will likely order tests to assess the situation properly. Delaying care for eight months is inadvisable; prompt evaluation ensures your well-being. Though usually benign, ignoring potential issues can lead to complications. With timely check-ups and appropriate treatment, kidney cysts are manageable.

Why is my height not increasing and experiencing bone pain?
Bone pain may be a consequence of various factors such as growth spurts or poor posture which may be the reason for this. For now, think of your bones as if they are naturally adjusting themselves as you grow taller. Measure your intake of calcium and vitamin D as a way of ensuring you get enough of these minerals for healthy bones. Even if the pain persists, it's best to talk with an orthopedist.

Why do I have severe bloating and ineffective treatment?
You are probably dealing with a situation of bloating in your stomach with gurgling in your intestines. Bloat is when there is excess gas in your belly. Churning of the intestine can be due to the food passing through your system. Eating slowly and avoiding the foods that cause you gassy could be the solution. Drinking peppermint tea can also relieve your stomach. If these don’t work, it’s best to talk to a gastroenterologist.
