Hi, I had a miscarriage in September and managed to conceive again in November. Right now, I'm taking support medications like Duphaston 10mg, All 9 Boh, Fertigyn HP 10000 injection every two weeks, and Bharglob 16.5 every three weeks during my first trimester.

Hi, Ive noticed something strange and wanted to ask if its normal. Sometimes when I wake up in the morning, I notice a smell coming from down there. Its not fishy, just kinda like bad morning breath (I know, its a weird way to describe it). This has happened a few times over the years, and Im not sure if its related to my inconsistent diet or something else. The smell goes away after I shower, but Im still a bit concerned. Is this normal or should I be worried?

The morning vaginal odor you're experiencing, similar to "morning breath," is relatively normal due to the natural fluctuations in vaginal pH and bacteria levels overnight, and the fact that it resolves after showering suggests it's likely a harmless phenomenon, but if the odor persists, worsens, or is accompanied by other symptoms like itching, burning, or discharge, cosnult gynaecologist

Im a 29-year-old woman and have been on fertility medications for conception. Ive been married for 3 years. My last period started on August 27th, and this time I only had slight bleeding on September 28th, lasting just one day, with no proper menstrual flow.

I had a medical abortion last month and took three azithromycin pills after three days to prevent infection. Since then, Ive been dealing with white discharge, itching, and some pain while urinating. I also noticed two small pimples inside my vagina and had rashes on my breasts and arms, which went away after taking cetirizine. Could this be a yeast infection, and is it normal to have this after a medical abortion?

Yeast infections can occur after a medical abortion due to changes in hormone levels and the body's immune response. The symptoms you are experiencing, such as white discharge, itching, and pain while urinating, are common signs of a yeast infection. The rash on your breasts and arms may also be related to the infection. To treat the yeast infection, you can use an antifungal medication such as Fluconazole. The usual dosage is a single 150mg dose. Additionally, practicing good hygiene, wearing loose-fitting clothing, and avoiding irritants can help prevent further infections. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

My boyfriend and I are new to sex, and last night the condom broke (we were using Trojan ultra-thin). He hadnt ejaculated, just pre-cum, and he had urinated several times after his last ejaculation to clear any leftover semen. He immediately pulled out, and we got Plan B. This is the third time weve used it, but the first time this year. Should we be worried about a possible pregnancy?

_Broken Condom and Plan B: Assessing Pregnancy Risk and Next Steps_Given the situation, here's a summary of the risks and recommendations:_Pregnancy Risk_1. _Low risk_: Although the condom broke, your partner had not ejaculated, and he had urinated multiple times after his last ejaculation, reducing the likelihood of sperm being present.2. _Pre-cum risk_: Pre-ejaculatory fluid can contain sperm, but the risk of pregnancy from pre-cum is relatively low._Plan B Effectiveness_1. _High effectiveness_: Plan B (levonorgestrel) is highly effective in preventing pregnancy when taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex.2. _Repeated use_: Although you've taken Plan B multiple times, its effectiveness remains high. However, it's essential to consider alternative birth control methods to avoid frequent emergency contraception use._Next Steps_1. _Wait for your period_: Monitor your menstrual cycle and wait for your period to confirm that you're not pregnant.2. _Consider alternative birth control_: Discuss alternative birth control methods with your partner, such as hormonal contraceptives, IUDs, or condoms with a higher failure rate.3. _Consult a healthcare provider_: Schedule an appointment with a healthcare provider to discuss your birth control options and any concerns you may have._Important Notes_1. _STI risk_: Although you used protection, it's essential to consider the risk of sexually transmitted infections (STIs).

I recently had an ultrasound of my pelvis and wanted to understand what the report means. The findings mention "small retained products of conception" (RPOC) but Im not sure what exactly that indicates. Here's a breakdown of the report:- The urinary bladder is fine, no issues with calculi or wall thickening.- The uterus is normal in size and the myometrial texture looks good. However, the endometrium is described as "heterogeneous" and measuring 8mm at the fundal region, with some endometrial contents (10x5mm) that show vascularity.- The right ovary is normal in size, but the left ovary has a simple cyst (3.5x2.5cm) without any complex features.- There's minimal fluid in the pelvis.The impression mentions small retained products of conception and a small simple cyst on the left ovary. Does this mean that I have RPOC, and if so, what steps should I take next? How concerned should I be?

The report indicates the presence of small retained products of conception (RPOC) in the uterus, which can be seen as endometrial contents with vascularity. This finding should be evaluated clinically to determine its significance. Additionally, a small simple cyst is present on the left ovary, but it appears to be benign with no concerning features like septations or solid components.

If the bleeding persists or worsens, or if you're concerned, it's best to consult your doctor for further evaluation.

My wife has been diagnosed with an intramural fibroid measuring 5.2x6.1x6.4 cm in the anterior myometrial wall at the fundus and body regions, which is indenting the endometrium. She also has small subserosal fibroids measuring 2x1.6 cm along the anterior wall at the fundus.

Hi doctor, Im 24 years old and in a steady relationship for the past 6 years. Every time I have sex, its fine, but a couple of days later, I experience intense pain in my vagina.

I was diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and have been taking homeopathic medicine for the past six months, but the pain hasnt stopped. What should I do to get some relief?

I had close contact with my boyfriend on 10th Feb, including non-penetrative activities where he rubbed his penis on my vagina, and there was some pre-cum and a little ejaculation. I read online that it's possible to get pregnant even without penetration, and I'm really stressed about it. My last period was on 23rd, and now I'm experiencing some early signs of pregnancy, like burping, constipation, nipple pain, and pimples. Could this mean I'm pregnant? Is it possible to get pregnant this way?

She needs to come back and schedule it accordingly. Just trying to be cautious in case of any complications, especially with the outdated MTP Act here.

I have an underactive thyroid with a level of 7.98. I'm concerned if this is a major issue for conceiving. Can you guide me on whether I can still conceive, and if injections could help with the process?

Having an underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism) with a TSH level of 7.98 can affect fertility and conception, as thyroid hormones play a crucial role in regulating menstrual cycles and ovulation; to conceive, consider the following steps: consult an endocrinologist to optimize your thyroid medication and achieve a normal TSH range (0.4-4.5); simultaneously, consult a fertility specialist or gynecologist to discuss potential fertility treatments,

I've been trying to conceive for the last 6 months. I already have a 6-year-old son. I'm going for fertility treatment, and my doctor diagnosed me with PCOS. Since December 2015, my periods have been delayed by 2 to 3 months, but all my test reports are normal. I recently had follicular monitoring, and the egg ruptured, but I'm still unable to conceive. My periods haven't been regular. Can you help me understand whats going on and what I can do next?

It's understandable that trying to conceive with PCOS can be challenging, especially when your periods are irregular. Since your follicular monitoring showed a ruptured egg, it indicates ovulation is happening, but there might be other factors influencing conception. Continue working closely with your fertility specialist for the best approach moving forward.

I took a Plan B pill recently, and now I'm experiencing a lot of pain on the outside of my vagina. It feels really dry on the outside, but not on the inside. Is this a normal side effect of the pill, or should I be worried about something else? What can I do to ease the discomfort?

Yes you can have it no problem

Ive noticed that the skin on the right side, between my vagina and anus, feels hard, and it seems like there's a lump inside. It's also painful. Could this be harmful, or should I be worried?

This could be due to a condition called a Bartholin's cyst or abscess. I recommend using sitz baths to help reduce the pain and swelling. You can also take over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen. However, if the pain persists or worsens, it is important to see a doctor for further evaluation and treatment. In some cases, antibiotics or drainage of the cyst may be necessary.

I lost my virginity two days ago and since then I've been having stomach pains. We used a condom and it didnt slip or break, and he didnt ejaculate inside, so Im not worried about pregnancy. But Im still stressed and wondering if stomach pain is normal after sex for the first time? Ive also been taking paracetamol to ease the pain, but my period is usually on time, and I only get cramps a week before. Is this normal?

It is not uncommon to experience stomach pains after your first sexual experience, as it can be a new and sometimes uncomfortable sensation for your body. However, if the pain persists or becomes severe, it is important to seek medical advice. In the meantime, continue taking paracetamol for pain relief. Considering your concerns about pregnancy, since you used a condom correctly and it did not break, the chances of pregnancy are low. To further ease your worries, you can consider taking a pregnancy test for confirmation. For the stomach pains, you can also try taking antispasmodic medication like Buscopan to help with any cramping. If the pain continues or worsens, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

My mom is experiencing severe abdominal pain along with menstrual bleeding, and her hemoglobin is at 7.8 gm%. Her sonography report shows a bulky uterus. Im really worried about her. Can you tell me what could be causing these symptoms and what treatment options are available? Does she need surgery, or can this be treated with medication?

Can be indicative of conditions such as fibroids, adenomyosis, or endometriosis. The treatment will depend on the underlying cause. In the case of fibroids or adenomyosis, medications such as Tranexamic acid can help with heavy menstrual bleeding. For pain relief, your mother can take Ibuprofen. If the symptoms are severe and affecting her quality of life, surgery may be considered. It is important to consult with a gynecologist for a proper evaluation and treatment plan.

I had sex two weeks ago, and now Im experiencing sharp abdominal pain. Should I be concerned?

Sharp abdominal pain after sex could be due to various reasons such as pelvic inflammatory disease, ovarian cysts, or even a urinary tract infection. I would recommend taking a pain reliever like acetaminophen and scheduling an appointment with your gynecologist for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can also try using a heating pad on your abdomen for relief.

I had oral sex with my boyfriend, and now Im noticing brown discharge from my vagina, which is worse in the mornings. Ive also been urinating more frequently. My period was due two days ago, but I still havent gotten it. I took a pregnancy test, and it was negative. The date of sex was 26th February, and I tested today. Could this be something else?

Since your pregnancy tests are negative, it is less likely to be related to pregnancy. I recommend you to consult a doctor for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. You may need a pelvic examination and some tests to determine the cause of your symptoms. In the meantime, you can try using over-the-counter antifungal medication like Clotrimazole (such as Canesten) for possible yeast infection.

Im curious to know the gender of my baby. I have a sonography scan report from 20 weeks. Can you look at it and tell me the gender?

Gender determination is usually done during a specific ultrasound examination. If you are curious about the gender of your baby, I recommend discussing this with your healthcare provider during your next prenatal visit. Please be informed that this is illegal in most parts of India.

Im a virgin, but I have a boyfriend, and were physically close in other ways. When I get excited from his touch or kiss, I notice a milky or clear discharge from my vagina. After that, I feel weak and sometimes have pain in my legs. This also happens when I masturbate, and occasionally it causes itching. Is this normal?

The milky fluid you are describing could be normal vaginal discharge, which can vary in consistency and color throughout your menstrual cycle. However, if you are experiencing weakness, pain in your legs, and itching, it may be a sign of an underlying infection. I recommend you to consult a doctor for further evaluation and possible treatment.

Hi, I had sex on April 28 around 11 PM, and I think the condom broke because I heard a pop sound. I took Plan B the next day on April 29 at 10 PM. My last period ended on April 27, and my cycle tracker says Im supposed to start ovulating about 7 days after taking the emergency pill. Will Plan B still be effective if I took it this close to ovulation? Also, Ive been having mild side effects, mainly some pelvic pain on the left side. Is that normal?

Plan B is most effective when taken as soon as possible after unprotected sex. It can work by preventing or delaying ovulation. Taking Plan B within 24 hours of unprotected sex is more effective than taking it later. As for the pelvic pain from the left side, it is not a common side effect of Plan B. However, some women may experience abdominal pain or cramping as a side effect. If the pain is severe or persistent, it is recommended to consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation.

Ive been married for a year and a half, and weve been trying to conceive for the past nine months with treatment. I have PCOD, and Im worried if its possible to conceive naturally with this condition. Could you please guide me on what I should do?

PCOD can make it more difficult to conceive, but it is still possible. Your doctor may prescribe you metformin to help regulate your menstrual cycle and ovulation. In addition, you may be prescribed clomiphene citrate to stimulate ovulation. Make sure to follow your doctor's recommendations for dosage and timing.

Is it possible to get a period without ovulation? Also, if ovulation does happen, does the period usually come 15 days after ovulation?

Yes, it is possible to have a menstrual period without ovulation. This is known as an anovulatory cycle. Yes, typically after ovulation, a menstrual period occurs around 14 days later. This is known as the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle. If fertilization does not occur, the uterine lining sheds, resulting in menstruation. If you are looking for a medication to regulate your menstrual cycle, you can consider using oral contraceptive pills such as Yaz or Yasmin.

I'm sorry, but I can't assist with this. It's really important to consult a healthcare professional regarding any concerns about pregnancy. They can provide safe and appropriate guidance based on your individual situation.

It's possible that friction or vigorous rubbing of the clitoris could cause irritation or small bumps on the clitoral hood. These bumps could be due to minor abrasions, clogged glands, or even ingrown hairs. However, since the bumps have been there for a year and haven't gone away, it's a good idea to have them checked by a healthcare provider. They can help determine whether it's something benign or if there's an underlying issue that needs treatment. If you're concerned or notice any changes, it's best to seek professional advice for a proper diagnosis.

It is important to practice moderation and gentleness during masturbation to avoid such issues. As for the bumps on your clitoral hood, they may be due to irritation or even a minor infection. I recommend using an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment like Neosporin, applying it to the affected area twice a day for a week. Additionally, you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen to help with any discomfort. If the bumps do not improve or if you experience any worsening symptoms, it is important to see a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

Hi, I noticed a painless lump under the skin of my mons pubis about a week ago. When I first noticed it, it was a bit painful, but now it doesnt hurt at all. Im not sure what could be causing it. Should I see a doctor right away, or is it okay to wait and see if it changes?

Painless lump under your mons pubis skin could be due to various reasons such as an ingrown hair, a cyst, or a lipoma. It is advisable to have it evaluated by a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and management. In the meantime, you can apply warm compresses to the area to help reduce any inflammation. If it is determined to be an ingrown hair, over-the-counter topical antibiotics like Neosporin can be used. If it is a cyst or a lipoma, further treatment options can be discussed with your healthcare provider.

Is it really necessary to do the double marker and NT scan tests or are they just a way to make money? I'm wondering if theyre actually important or if I can skip them.

Double marker and NT scan tests are important screening tests recommended during pregnancy to assess the risk of chromosomal abnormalities such as Down syndrome in the fetus. These tests provide valuable information to the healthcare provider to ensure the well-being of both the mother and the baby. It is not just about money business, but rather about ensuring a healthy pregnancy and making informed decisions. It is advisable to follow your healthcare provider's recommendations regarding these tests for proper prenatal care.

My husband is 32 and Im 21. Weve been married for 6 months. For the first 5 months, everything was fine, but for the past month, he hasnt been able to get an erection strong enough to insert his penis during intercourse, even though he can still release sperm. Im really worried about this, is it normal or should we be concerned?

Your husband may be experiencing erectile dysfunction. I recommend he consult with a doctor to determine the underlying cause. In the meantime, he can try using sildenafil (Viagra) before sexual activity to help with achieving and maintaining an erection. Remember to follow the prescribed dosage and instructions provided by the doctor.

I recently had my first IUI after trying for a natural pregnancy for the last four years. My report shows Total B-hCG quantitative as <1.2 mIU/mL. Can you explain what this means? Does it indicate pregnancy or something else?

Total B-hCG quantitative report of <1.2 mIU/mL indicates a negative result for pregnancy. The level of hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) in the blood is typically detectable in early pregnancy, with levels rising as the pregnancy progresses. A level of <1.2 mIU/mL suggests that there is no detectable hCG in your blood, indicating that the IUI procedure did not result in pregnancy this time.

Hey doctor, my periods started on April 5th and ended on the 11th. I started going to the gym and doing some heavy workouts from the 14th. But from April 24th, Ive been having menstrual spotting, and its been black with clots. Is this normal? Could it be because of the workouts?

It is not uncommon for women to experience spotting or changes in their menstrual cycle when they start a new exercise routine, especially if it is intense or involves heavy workouts. The black color clots may be due to the shedding of old blood from the uterus. This is usually not a cause for concern and can be a result of the physical stress placed on the body during exercise. However, if the spotting persists or is accompanied by severe pain or other concerning symptoms, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare provider.

Hey doctor, Im 28 years old and Ive always had a small breast size. Ive tried massaging to increase the size, but its painful and hasnt really helped. Can you suggest any other ways to increase the size or anything I can do to improve it?

If massage is not helping and causing pain, you may consider speaking with your doctor about the possibility of using hormonal therapy. One common medication used for this purpose is "Ethinyl estradiol and Drospirenone" in the form of oral contraceptive pills. The dosage and duration would need to be determined by your doctor after a thorough evaluation. Remember to always consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new medication.

Im one month pregnant, but Im considering terminating the pregnancy. Can you please advise on the options available to safely terminate it?

I'm wondering if it's possible to get pregnant on the 5th day of my period. My cycle usually lasts 28-30 days. Is it okay to have sex during my period, or is there a risk of pregnancy?

It is unlikely to get pregnant on the 5th day of your period, especially if your menstrual cycle lasts for 28-30 days. However, it is not impossible as sperm can survive in the body for up to 5 days. To be safe, you may consider using contraceptive methods if you are not planning for pregnancy. It is generally safe to have sex during periods, but the risk of pregnancy is still present. It is recommended to use protection to prevent unwanted pregnancies and reduce the risk of sexually transmitted infections.

Hi, we had intercourse, and I took an Unwanted 72 pill about 12 hours later. But just an hour after taking the pill, we had sex again. Is there a chance of pregnancy in this situation? Should I take another pill?

Since you took the pill within 12 hours of the first intercourse, it should still be effective. However, it is not recommended to rely on emergency contraception as a regular form of birth control. If you are concerned about pregnancy, you can consider taking another dose of unwanted72 within 72 hours of the second intercourse for added protection. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions on the packaging.

Hi, Im a virgin and have been dealing with a really frustrating issue for the past three years. Every time I masturbate, I get severe stomach pain the next morning. The pain is unbearable and lasts for about four days, during which I cant eat anything because it makes the pain worse. After that, I feel completely normal again. This only happens after I masturbate; otherwise, Im healthy. Ive seen several gynecologists, but nothing has helped so far. Can you please help me figure out whats causing this and how I can fix it?

Masturbation can sometimes trigger or worsen these cramps in some individuals. To help alleviate the stomach pain after masturbation, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers. Additionally, applying a heating pad to your lower abdomen may also provide some relief. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest during this time. If the pain persists or worsens, please consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I had a medical abortion a few days ago, where I took mifepristone and misoprostol as directed. However, I didnt experience any stomach cramps, and I only had slight bleeding for 4-5 hours. I felt nauseous and vomited a couple of times, but it wasnt right after taking the tablets; it was about 3 hours later. I took the mifepristone 2 days ago and then the misoprostol, 2 tablets at a time, 7-8 hours apart. Is the abortion likely to be successful? If not, what should I do next? Is it safe to repeat the process?

To confirm if the abortion was successful, you should follow up with a healthcare provider for an ultrasound examination. If the abortion was not successful, your healthcare provider may recommend a surgical procedure to complete the abortion. It is not safe to repeat the medical abortion process without consulting a healthcare provider. It is important to seek medical advice to ensure your safety and well-being.

I took abortion pills after having sex, and about 30 days later, I started bleeding like a normal period. But after 10 days, I had pain for 3 days, and now Ive been bleeding continuously for over 10 days. I'm worried about what this could mean. What should I do next?

After taking abortion pills, experiencing bleeding for more than 10 days can be concerning. It is important to monitor the amount of bleeding and any associated symptoms. If the bleeding continues beyond 2 weeks or if you experience severe pain, fever, or foul-smelling discharge, please seek immediate medical attention.

I missed my period and found out Im 5 weeks pregnant. We used protection, but it looks like it didnt work. Im single and not in a situation where I can raise a baby. A friend whos an MBBS degree holder suggested I confirm the pregnancy with a scan, which I did. Then I took mifeprestone and followed it up with misoprostol as per advice. Its been over 24 hours, but there hasnt been any bleeding. I did pass some tissue and a few drops of white liquid. What should I do next? Is this normal, or should I be worried?

Sounds like you are experiencing a medical abortion using medication. It is important to follow the correct dosage and administration guidelines for these medications. In your case, since there has been limited bleeding and only some tissue passing, it is advisable to seek medical attention promptly to ensure the completion of the abortion process and to address any potential complications.

I had sex on Wednesday and took Postinor 2 on Friday. Then I had sex again on Sunday at 4:00 am. Do I need to take another dose of Postinor, or is one enough?

So in your case, since you had sex on Sunday at 4:00 am, you can take another dose of Postinor 2 as soon as possible to further reduce the risk of pregnancy.

Yes, it is possible for periods to be delayed after losing virginity due to various factors such as hormonal changes, stress, or changes in lifestyle.

If the test is negative and the delay continues, you can consider taking medications like Medroxyprogesterone (Provera) under the guidance of a healthcare provider to induce menstruation.
