I'm having this persistent pain in my right side nipple that's been going on for over a month now, and it's really affecting my daily life. I got a USG done, and everything seemed clear, but I'm constantly feeling tired and there's always this mild pain. I'm currently on treatment which includes Asmitha and 21 Aciloc RD Primerose, but it doesn't seem to be working. Is there any specific screening for nipple health, not just breast checks? Sometimes it feels like there's something inside the nipple if there's no pain. I've already seen more than five gynecologists and I'm really stressed out about this. I'm unmarried, and I had one ovary removed three years ago. Could you suggest the next steps for screening or treatment that might help?

Considering your persistent right-sided nipple pain, fatigue, and mild pain despite normal ultrasound results and ongoing treatment, consult a breast specialist or a dermatologist for a thorough evaluation; additional screening tests, such as a ductogram, nipple discharge cytology, or a high-frequency ultrasound, may help identify the underlying cause; also, discuss the possibility of nipple thrush, eczema, or other dermatological conditions with your doctor, and explore alternative treatments, such as topical creams or antibiotics, to alleviate your symptoms and improve your quality of life.

View allI've been experiencing a delay in my periods but haven't noticed any other issues, aside from normal white discharge. Should I be concerned, and what might be causing this delay? Any advice on how to address it would be really appreciated!
A delay in periods can be caused by various factors like stress, hormonal changes, or lifestyle shifts. If the white discharge is normal and there are no other symptoms, it may be a temporary issue, but if it persists, consider consulting a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying concerns.

I'm currently in my first trimester and have been experiencing a lot of nausea. I've heard about Doxinate, but I'm worried about whether it's really safe to take during this stage of pregnancy. Are there any risks or side effects for the baby that I should be aware of?
Doxinate is a combination of doxylamine and pyridoxine, commonly used to treat nausea and vomiting during pregnancy. It is considered safe to use during the first trimester of pregnancy. Studies have shown that it does not increase the risk of birth defects or other adverse outcomes for the baby. The usual dosage of Doxinate during pregnancy is 1 tablet at bedtime, and if needed, 1 tablet in the morning and 1 tablet in the afternoon. It is important to follow the recommended dosage and not exceed the prescribed amount. Common side effects of Doxinate may include drowsiness, dry mouth, and blurred vision. These side effects are usually mild and temporary. If you experience any concerning side effects, it is important to consult your healthcare provider. Overall, Doxinate can be safely used during the first trimester of pregnancy to help manage nausea, with minimal risk to the baby.

I'm 45 days late and I've already done a few home pregnancy tests and even a blood pregnancy test within 30 days of missing my period, all of them were negative. The doctor gave me primolutn for 5 days, 3 times a day, and said I would get my periods in the next 5 days after finishing the pills, but it's been 9 days now and still nothing. I'm feeling really tired lately, my body aches, my breasts are super tender, and I've put on some weight that's not going away, plus lots of mood swings. I felt cramps a few times before I started the pills but no period or even spotting has happened yet, and I feel like I have a UTI because I'm peeing all the time. I'm supposed to see the doctor after I finally get my period for those day 2 tests. What's going on with me? Could I actually be pregnant even though the pregnancy tests are saying no?
It is possible to have a false negative pregnancy test, especially if the test is taken too early or not done correctly. However, considering your symptoms and the medications you have been taking, it is less likely that you are pregnant. Given your history of PCOD and the symptoms you are experiencing, it is possible that your delayed period and other symptoms could be due to hormonal imbalances related to PCOD. It is also possible that the medications you have been taking, such as Primolut-N, could be affecting your menstrual cycle.
