Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

A sudden heavy period may be the result of normal hormonal fluctuations or a side effect of birth control. However, heavy periods can also indicate an underlying health condition. A person should talk to their doctor if they experience heavy bleeding or cramping that prevents them from completing normal activities

I'm 36 weeks pregnant and my liver enzymes were high around week 32, so I started taking Udilv 300 tablets. Now the levels have returned to normal. Should I keep taking Udilv 300 until I deliver?

Hydrocele in Children _Hydrocele Overview_ 1. _Fluid accumulation_: Hydrocele is a condition where fluid accumulates in the scrotum, causing swelling. 2. _Common in infants and toddlers_: Hydrocele is relatively common in young children, especially during the first two years. _Surgical Intervention_ 1. _Recommended for persistent hydrocele_: If the hydrocele persists beyond 2-3 years, surgical intervention may be recommended. 2. _Surgery benefits_: Surgery can help prevent potential complications, such as hernias or testicular damage. _Wait-and-Watch Approach_ 1. _Suitable for younger children_: For children under 2-3 years, a wait-and-watch approach may be recommended, as the hydrocele may resolve on its own. 2. _Monitoring required_: Regular follow-ups with your pediatrician or pediatric surgeon are essential to monitor the hydrocele's progress. _Considerations for Your Son_ 1. _Age and persistence_: Since your son is 3.5 years old and the hydrocele has persisted, surgical intervention may be a reasonable option. 2. _Consult with a pediatric surgeon_: Schedule a consultation with a pediatric surgeon to discuss the best course of action for your son. _Remember_ 1. _Every child is different_: What works for one child may not work for another. 2. _Follow your pediatrician's advice_: Your pediatrician or pediatric surgeon can provide personalized guidance based on your son's specific situation.
