I'm supposed to get my period tomorrow, but it hasn't started yet. I'm feeling those usual period pains, but nothing's happening. Can you suggest some home remedies to help kickstart my period right away?

There is no reason to be concerned if your periods are due the next day. You should allow time for your normal menstrual cycle to take place. If your period is delayed by a more than 1 week, then you should visit the gynecologist for further evaluation.

I've been dealing with this issue for a while and I'm pretty confused about it. I'm 23 and my periods are either super light or almost nonexistent at times. Sometimes I'll just see a tiny bit of blood, and then nothing for the first few days, but then it starts up from the 4th day. It gets me pretty worried. Could you help me understand why this is happening?

Your irregular menstrual bleeding patterns, including delayed onset, reduced flow, or prolonged spotting, could be due to various factors such as hormonal imbalances, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), thyroid disorders, stress, or weight fluctuations; consult a gynecologist for a thorough evaluation, pelvic exam, and potential ultrasound or blood tests to determine the underlying cause and develop a personalized treatment plan.

I'm feeling a bit concerned. My wife is in her 13th week of pregnancy and after doing an Usg level 1 scan, the doctor suggested she start taking ecosprin 75mg daily to help with blood thinning because there's high resistance in the right uterine artery. I'm a bit worried and I just want to know if it's actually safe for her to take ecosprin during pregnancy. What could be the risks or benefits?

Ecosprin 75mg is safe to take during pregnancy, especially for the indication of blood thinning to improve uterine artery blood flow. It is commonly used to prevent complications such as preeclampsia and intrauterine growth restriction. Make sure your wife takes Ecosprin 75mg once a day as prescribed by the doctor.
