View allI'm wondering if having typhoid can actually delay your periods. Also, could all the antibiotics and medicines I've been taking, plus the weakness from being sick, be affecting my cycle too?
Your periods are dependent upon the hormones in the body. The hormones can get imbalanced during the stress of an infection and there is reported cases of delay in such cases. But if it is delayed by more than 10 days, you should visit your gynecologist so that you can be examined and undergo investigations such as ultrasound, thyroid profile, etc. to find the underlying cause and have it treated accordingly. Keep yourself well hydrated, have a good and balanced nutrition and rest well to heal.

What's going on with my mom's scan results? It mentions a bulky anterior wall fibroid and describes the sizes of her uterus and ovaries, but I'm not sure what this all means for her health. She's 54 and I'm worried about what to do next. Could you please explain?
Based on the ultrasound report, your 54-year-old mother has a bulky anterior wall fibroid (5.1x5.4x5.6cm) and normal ovarian echo patterns; considering her age, treatment options may include watchful waiting, hormonal therapy, or surgical interventions like myomectomy or hysterectomy, but it's essential to consult a gynecologist
