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 32 weeks pregnant and just had a growth scan that showed my amniotic fluid index is 22.2 cm. The doctor mentioned it's a bit high and suggested I get some blood tests done, like fbs and ppbs. They also said the baby's abdominal circumference is slightly above average. Does this mean I might have gestational diabetes? And what kind of diet should I be considering right now? Everything else with the baby's weight seems normal, so I'm just trying to understand what all this means.
An Amniotic Fluid Index (AFI) of 22.2 cm is indeed high, and the slightly above-average abdominal circumference may indicate fetal macrosomia; however, gestational diabetes diagnosis requires confirmation through FBS (Fasting Blood Sugar) and PPBS (Postprandial Blood Sugar) tests; if diagnosed, follow a balanced diet with complex carbohydrates, fiber-rich foods, and minimal sugar intake, and consult a registered dietitian or healthcare provider for personalized guidance.
