Question 1

I'm a 28-year-old woman and I'm married. My period was supposed to start around the 24th or 25th this month, but it's late. Usually, I have a regular cycle and it doesn't skip. This time, I tried to prepone my cycle by a couple of days, so I took Primolut N twice a day for three days on the 12th, 13th, and 14th. I waited 5 days after that for my period to start, but nothing happened. Could Primolut N be causing any side effects, like delaying my period or stopping it altogether? What should I do now?

Accepted Answer

rimolut N, containing norethisterone, can cause changes in menstrual cycle, including delayed or absent periods, as a common side effect, especially when taken in high doses or for extended periods, and since you've already waited 5 days after stopping the medication, it's recommended to wait a few more days and if your period doesn't start, take a pregnancy test and consult your gynecologist for further guidance and to rule out any underlying hormonal imbalances.

Question 2

My mom is 40 and was just diagnosed with a bulky uterus with multiple fibroids and a right hemorrhagic ovarian cyst that's 3126 mm in her right ovary. We're really worried and confused about whether surgery or medication would be the better treatment option for her. What do you suggest is the best way to handle this?

Accepted Answer

It's understandable that you're worried about your mom's diagnosis. Since she's 40 and has both fibroids and a large ovarian cyst, the best approach is to have a thorough discussion with her gynecologist. They will need to assess her symptoms, consider her future fertility desires, and determine the best treatment plan for her specific situation

Question 3

I'm about 6 weeks and 2 days pregnant and I've been feeling some sharp pain in my abdomen whenever I lie down and sneeze or cough. There's also this sudden pain in my pelvic area if I stand up too quickly. On top of that, ever since I conceived, I've noticed some skin allergies popping up. I had an abortion about a year ago using pills, and I'm really wondering if what I'm going through is normal or if there's something I should be concerned about. Also, is it possible to use the pills for an abortion again this time around? We just don't feel ready for a baby right now.

Accepted Answer

consult obstetrician

I'm really concerned because my breasts are quite small, and I'm dealing with some discharge and itching issues. It's making me really sad, and I'm wondering what I can do about it. Could these symptoms mean something serious, or is there a way to address both problems?

Surgeon opinion is advised to the patient.
