My wife has been experiencing irregular periods for the past five months. Her usual cycle starts on the 21st, but now it's delayed by an average of about 10 days. She's also dealing with a lot of cramps and normally her period lasts 8 days, which is typical for her. Can you help us understand why this might be happening?

View allI've just gotten my STD test results back, and I'm a little worried. My HSV 1 IgG test is positive, but the IgM is negative. I've never had symptoms before, and last month was the first time I had oral sex, so I thought itd be a good idea to get checked. The healthcare provider mentioned everything is okay, but I'm still stressing out. Should I really be worried about this? Could this be something serious?

I'm currently pregnant and was wondering about taking Ondansetron for nausea and vomiting. Is it safe for me and the baby, and are there any potential side effects I should be aware of? Also, would it really help with the vomiting? I'm feeling a bit worried and just looking for some guidance.

I'm dealing with something that's been bugging me and could really use some advice. I was diagnosed with minor PCOD back in July 2015. My periods were delayed back then, but they eventually started happening naturally without any medication. To be on the safe side, I went ahead with PCOD treatment, and that's when my anxiety kicked in, which I find a bit confusing. So, after about three months, my ultrasound reports came back normal, and my PCOD seems to be cured. But there's this one thingmy periods are now really scanty, only bleeding for about a day. I used to bleed for around 3 days before all this started. Some people tell me it's all in my head, probably because of high stress and my anxiety disorder. It's confusing because I feel like PCOD might be the root cause of my anxiety, but now that it's supposedly cured, I'm wondering why my periods aren't normal. Any thoughts on what's going on with me?
reduce your stress. Maintain the regular diet and start doing exercises
