Question
Hi Dr, I am married before two years, I have
Polycystic ovary problem .I got pregancy before 6months and then
abortion happened after 3months. Now I am taking tablet
metaphage500&Folic acid and Thyroid tablet euthyrox. and I took 3time
clomid also. Now my period is normal. Prevoius month i put cyclogest400
from 16thday of my period but this month also i got period 2days early.
can u plz suggest what I will do for getting pregnant?
|
|
|
Answer:
Sorry to hear about your miscarriage. The treatment you are taking is
fine. However, was the cyclogest given after confirming that you had
ovulated ? What was the size of the follicle on day 13 of the cycle? |

Question
I have multiple cysts in my Ovaries.I have been
married since the past 2 and half years.I want to conceive now. My
doctor has suggested me to take Siphene from 5 day of my periods for 5
days and then try conceiving. I wanted to know if this medicine is safe?
|
|
|
Answer: You probably have Polycystic ovaries, which is present in
10-20 % of women. Siphene is fine and is safe. However, you must do a
scan on day 13 of the period to ensure that the follicle is growing well
and that the ovary is not getting unduly enlarged. This will also
determine your most fertile period. |

utreaus which was so painful all of a suddern i had a heard a pop and
then the bleeding and clotting started i had to have a dc what happened
to cause all this.
|
|
|
Answer: Sorry to hear about your miscarriage ..It is difficult to
give you the reason for this, with the information you have provided. At
12 weeks, did the growth of the fetus correspond to 12 weeks or was it
less ? Let me know, so I can advice you further. |

Question
Hi, I am having problem of polysystic ovary. I was
on medication since last 7 months. I still didnt concieve I was given
the medicines names duphaston glitz and clomiphene we went to another
doctor for his opinion and he said to do ovary drilling thats the only
way to get rid of this pls advise if this true I am so scared when it
comes to get operated. is it neccesary or we can try another medication
please advise
Thanks |
|
|
Answer: There is NOTHING that can "GET RID "of Polycystic
ovaries. However, the symptoms can be treated. We rarely do Ovarian
drilling , nowadays, as its effect is temporary and it can cause
adhesions around the ovary. What dose of clomid were you taking ? Were
you forming follicles of 18- 20 mm ? If not, you would require a higher
dose. Let me know, so I can advice you accordingly. At present, you do
not require drilling. What is the level of your FSH & LH hormones on day
2 of the cycle? |

about 2 weeks or so ,but what kind of csyt is this ?what causes them ?
and how can i prevent more from forming?
|
|
|
Answer: It is difficult to opine on this, unless I see it. It
probably seems like a Bartholin abscess. Check with your gynec.
regarding it. |

weight by following a strict diet control and exercise will help. If you
are not losing weight, see a dietician who can advice you. You can
continue the dimet. Also, you may require medication like clomid to help
you ovulate. All the best ! |

Question
Hi, am 24 yr old,single. I have a problem of
vaginal itching. I am asked to use lactacyd lotion. Sometimes still it
itches. I will use statum plus upon which i will be relieved from
itching for somedays. I have pale whitish/white discharge. sometime very
pale yellowish which wont be much. during medication i was asked to take
Forcan tablet, metrogyl tablet during which there was no itching. Can u
please help me to get rid of this. |
|
|
Answer: You have used medicines for both fungal and trichomonial
infection. To prevent a recurrence , keep the area dry, wear cotton
panties and change them twice a day. You can use another course of
Forcan. If that does not help, your vaginal discharge should be sent for
culture and sensitivity and then appropriate drugs can be given. |

Question
Hello, I am having problems with bloating,
vomitting, tired all the time, movement in stomach, have tried 5
pregnancy test( all come out negative), have not started my menstrall
cycle in 3mths. I have irregular periods though. Can you give me
insight, physcians are making me feel peranoid in re: to my symptoms
being nothing. I do not feel well. Please help
|
|
|
Answer: Do a blood test - beta hcg. This will confirm whether you
are pregnant or not. If not, the " movement " you feel maybe because of
"gas". . Also , do the H Pylori test. have you done an ultrasound ? What
is the result of that ? In the meantime , take an antacid like Maalox
and disflatyl tablets. This will help reduce your symptoms. If you have
not yet got a period, take duphaston tablets- one tablet twice a day for
5 days. |

Question
My mother is 49, having high periods problem, dr
adviced for ultra sound in 1st report of ultra sound the endo thickness
was 9.5 mm but now after 1 month it becomes increases now its 12mm, is
there is any kind of risk, plz suggest what to do/
|
|
|
Answer: I need some more information, before I can advice you. is
she menopausal? If not, was the scan done just after a period. If she is
still menstruating, the thickness of the endometrium changes during the
cycle and is thinnest just after a period. So, any comparison should be
done on scans done on the same day of the cycle. |

Question
Hi Doctor, I was on Minulet for several years now.
I got married in June 2007. This is when I decided to go off the pill. I
stop without finishing the pack. About 3-4 days off the pill, I started
to bleed. I know it's not my period as I was having it earlier. So, I
guess this is something like withdrawal. But the bleeding went for a
week and it doesn't appear want to stop. So, I decided to continue the
Minulet again using the pill where I left off. Probably it's not the
right thing to do but being newlyweds, I hope you understand. On 2nd
July, I started to have my period back and it was normal. I'm expecting
another withdrawal bleed now, but nothing happen yet. My period is 3
days late and I'm not sure what to expect. Am I pregnant? I have done 3
pregnancy tests (never with the first morning urine) but all tests are
negative. What's wrong with me, doctor? Is this normal? By the way, I'm
32 years old now and would like to have a baby before the risks get
higher. Thanks.
|
|
|
Answer: Do a blood test - beta hcg . This will confirm whether
you are pregnant or not. You cannot take minulet as and when you want !
Since you have had minulet irregularly, you maybe pregnant. If you wish
to conceive now, start folic acid tablets. |

I am 26yrs old, I have a case of PCOD. For last 2
months, I ve been on siphene(for 5 days) and metformin twice daily
(which i hav been taking for more than 4 months since i discovered PCOD).
What are the chances of coneciving with this treatment and my gynae has
suggested that in a lifetime we shud not take siphene for more that a
year'r time, is that true? For how long do u su=ggest we should give it
a try. I have been doing follicular monitoring also for last two months
and my husband's semen counts are also fine. Do you have any other
suggestions which can increase the chances of conceiving. Waiting for
yoyr reply. Thanks |
|
|
Answer: Siphene can be taken as long as the ovaries are not
getting enlarged.What was the size of the follicles on day 14 ? If you
are not ovulating with the dose given, you need to increase the dose.
Also, have your tubes been checked? Let me know, so I can advice you

Question
Hello doc. I m from mumbai and wanted to clear my
doubts that i m married for last 3 years and trying for a baby but all
in veins my doc has told me to do certain investigation and i have done
it my HSG reports are normal my sonography is normal (only possibilities
of PCO), and my thyroid is undercontrol ( by eltroxin 1 in the morning)
and i have done folliclar study for 3 timess ( 1st doc gave me SIPHENE
for 2 mths that time i was ovulating but nothing was there and 2nd time
LETROZ that time i dint ovulate) and my husbands reports are normal (60
million/ml and quantity is 3ml) now i went to another doc now the doc
has suggested me for IUI should i go for it??? normally i cant get
perganant???? and she told me to do iui for 2 or 3 times and if not
successfull she would do LAPROSCOPY AND OVARIAN DRILLING for PCO, so i
wanted to know LAPROSCOPY will cure pco? And with IUI i can get
pregnant? Pls doc. advice me i m in great confusion plss reply as soon
as possible as i have too decide, plsssss
|
|
|
Answer: IUI is fine and should help you. I do not think you need
ovarian drilling as this is known to cause certain complications and the
beneficial effect of it is only temporary. if you are ovulating , you do
not need ovarian drilling. What is your testosterone level ? Just relax
mentally, and you should conceive with IUI. All the best ! |

Pls what can i use if i am having irregular
menses. Black and scanty.

Answer: Is this only now or from the beginning ? Sometimes you
could be pregnant and there could be bleeding. Do a urine test for
pregnancy. Also, have an ultrasound done to rule out an ovarian cyst or
PCO ( polycystic ovaries ) ..If the problem recurs, have your thyroid
hormones checked. Let me know the results, so I can advice you further. |

Question
I had a normal papsmear, but I am having pain on
the lower right side of my pelvic area. I had an ultrasound done, and
the technician said my ovaries,tubes.. etc looked fine. She indicated
that she did see a lot of gas, however. I laughed because i have been
having trouble in with gas and bloating. After speaking with my DR about
the ultrasound, i was referred to a gynecologist because she could not
provide more answers for me and said the ultra sound looked ok. she said
it mentioned an irregularity of some sort, possibly related to
endometriosis and something about a regional fungas? Also she mentioned
a tilted uterus? DO you know what may be causing this pain., and what
this ultrasound is or is not telling me? Again, This pain affects my
lower right abdomen/pelvic area, and goes to my lower back and
side..leading to my buttocks area. It is not bent over pain...but it is
nagging type pain. No heavy bleeding for menstrual..etc..just this
nagging pain..on and off. Any input will help to ease my min |
|
|
Answer: Do you have constipation ? This could give rise to :gas "
and pain. You can take disflatyl tablets for the : gas ". Also, have a H
Pylori blood test done. let me know , how you feel after the medication
and the result of the test, so I can advice you further. Minimal
endometriosis will only be seen on laparoscopy and not on ultrasound. |
