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've noticed that during sex, my wife often feels pain in her vagina, and I'm worried it might be because my penis is around 7 inches and thick. Is there anything specific we should be doing or avoiding to make things more comfortable for her?

My uterus is anteverted and bulky, measuring 11.18.58.1 cm, with nonhomogeneous myometrial echoes. The endometrial thickness is 3 mm, and my right ovary is 2.11.3 cm while the left is 21.3 cm with normal echoes. Should I consider surgery for this, or is it something that can be treated without surgery?

It's important to consult with a doctor to determine the best course of action for your specific situation. A bulky uterus, particularly with nonhomogeneous myometrial echoes and thickened endometrium, could indicate conditions like fibroids, adenomyosis, or other issues, which may require surgery, medication, or other treatments

I'm taking Cyclenorm E and P for three days, with six tablets each. Do you know how long it usually takes for my period to start after this? I'm a bit anxious and curious about the timeline.

Taking Cyclenorm E and P for 3 days (6 tablets each) can help regulate your menstrual cycle. Your periods are likely to start within 1-2 days after finishing the course of medication. Make sure to follow the prescribed dosage as directed by your healthcare provider.
