I'm a 41-year-old woman and have been healthy overall. Until recently, my menstrual cycle was quite regular at 25 days, but since April, it has shifted to once every 50 days, so now I'm getting my period every two months. Along with this change, I've also started feeling breast pain, much like the sensation during pregnancy. I'm wondering if these are signs of menopause starting. Should I be considering any medication for this? For context, my mom began menopause in her 40s too.

Its possible that youre experiencing early perimenopause, especially given the changes in your menstrual cycle and breast tenderness, which are common symptoms. Since your mother also went through menopause in her 40s, this could be hereditary. Its a good idea to consult your doctor for a thorough evaluation and to discuss whether any treatment or lifestyle changes would be helpful for managing symptoms.

Yes, you can get HPV by having vaginal, anal, or oral sex with someone who has the virus. HPV can be passed even when an infected person has no signs or symptoms. You also can develop symptoms years after you have sex with someone who is infected. This makes it hard to know when you first became infected.

I recently had an ultrasound at 7 weeks 2 days, but it showed I'm actually measuring at 6 weeks 6 days with a fetal heartbeat. For the past four days, I was feeling really nauseous and even threw up as soon as I woke up, but all of a sudden, since yesterday, those symptoms are completely gone and now I feel perfectly fine. Should I be worried about this change? Is it normal to have symptoms come and go at 7 weeks? I had a missed miscarriage around this same time last year, so Im pretty nervous about it happening again.
Possible reasons for recurrent seizures despite proper medication include: medication non-adherence or inconsistent levels, tumor regrowth or recurrence, seizures triggered by external factors (e.g., stress, sleep deprivation), or underlying neurological conditions (e.g., epilepsy). Other potential causes include medication side effects, interactions with other medications, or hormonal changes. Consult a neurologist for a thorough evaluation and adjustment of treatment.

I'm 6 weeks pregnant and just got my urine routine test results. It says PUS cells are 24-26 hpf, and epithelial cells are 13-14 hpf. I'm really concerned about what these numbers mean for my pregnancy. Could this affect me or the baby?
