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 a bit worried because I haven't had my periods for the last two months, and my doctor told me to take Duphaston 10mg for ten days. It's only been two days since I stopped taking the pills. I'm curious to know when I should expect my period to start. Is this normal?

-it's common to get your period within 3-7 days after stopping Duphaston, though it can vary a little. If you dont get your period within a week, follow up with your doctor to check for any underlying issues. Take care and dont stressits often

I took a misoprostol kit for abortion on June 3rd but my ultrasound on July 1st showed an 11x7 mm retained product of conception in the fundal region. Is it possible for this to pass naturally in my next period or are there any medications that can help besides surgery? Are there alternative treatments in Ayurveda or Homeopathy?

Small retained products of conception may pass naturally or with medicines. If unresolved, minor surgical evacuation may be needed.

I'm 20 and I've been taking Obimet SR 500 once a day for my PCOS. My period came on November 13th. Then on December 2nd, I got intimate, although we didn't have sex. I missed my period in December and also skipped some doses of my Obimet SR. I took a pregnancy test on December 24th and it was negative. Later that day, I got intimate again and took an emergency contraceptive pill. I started bleeding on January 1st and it was like a full period that lasted 7 days. I've been back on Obimet SR since January 8th. I've done two more pregnancy tests since then and both were negative. I'm not experiencing any breast pain or other PMS symptoms now. What should I do? Is there a chance I'm pregnant, and if I am, what's the safest way to manage an unwanted pregnancy?

Consult your gynecologist immediately for a thorough evaluation and guidance, as your symptoms and test results are inconclusive; despite negative pregnancy tests, your missed period, bleeding patterns, and lack of PMS symptoms are concerning; your doctor may order a more sensitive pregnancy test, ultrasound, or other diagnostic tests to confirm or rule out pregnancy; if pregnant, your doctor will discuss safe and legal options, including termination, with you.
