I've had my period twice in the span of 15 days. Honestly, I haven't done anything different with my diet or daily routine. I've been on some meds for about a month and a half now, though. Back in October, I was expecting my period around the 28th, but it showed up on the 18th. And now it's here again on November 3rd. The medications I'm currently taking include Indocap, Pantocid, Defcort, and Chekbak D3. Why might my period be so early, and what should I do about it?

The early period could be due to the medications you are taking. Indocap is a brand name for Indomethacin, which can sometimes affect menstrual cycles. Pantocid is a brand name for Pantoprazole, which may also have an impact on menstrual regularity. Defcort is a brand name for Deflazacort, which can sometimes cause hormonal changes leading to irregular periods. Chekbak D3 is a supplement containing Vitamin D3, which is not known to directly affect menstrual cycles. I recommend consulting with your healthcare provider to discuss the possibility of these medications affecting your menstrual cycle. They may suggest adjusting the dosage or switching to alternative medications if necessary.

I'm 17 weeks pregnant and I'm wondering if it's possible to hear my baby's heartbeat using a Doppler device at this stage, or is it still too early for that?

I'm feeling a bit concerned because I've been having this dull pain under my left armpit that seems to connect to my breast, along with some pain in the upper back on the same side. This all starts happening about 10 days before my period. I actually made a note of it because it's been pretty consistent. Around a year and a half ago, I also experienced stabbing pain in my left breast along with back pain. I had mammograms done at two different hospitals back then and they said everything looked fine. They suggested I take Vitamin E tablets, which I did for a while, but even after stopping them a year ago, I'm still having these issues. Could it be related to my cycle, or should I be worried about something else?
