PCO (Polycystic
ovaries) |
|
Question
hi, doctor i m unmarried and abt to married in 3
months i am suffering from polycystic ovarian syndrome. Wht shd i do?
|
|
|
Answer:If you have regular periods and are ovulating, you do not
need to do anything further. If your periods are irregular , have your
FSH and LH blood tests done on the 2nd day of your period. If these are
normal, you should ovulate and be able to conceive. All the best ! |

Question
i just found out i have poly ovarian. i am 19 and
married. will it be easier to try to get pregnant know (with treatment)
or will i have the same chances in a couple of years?
|
|
|
Answer:I presume you mean you have polycystic ovaries. If your
periods are normal have an ultrasound done on day 11 tom check whether
you are ovulating or not. If you are, and your husband's semen is
normal, you can wait for some time if you wish. if, however, you are not
ovulating, you should start treatment within 3-4 months as one does not
know how long you might take to conceive. |

Answer: Your questions go to the omanaccess website and then are
sent to me. Due to the overload of questions, all the questions are not
sent to me. If you have PCOS , you need to check whether you are
ovulating or not. This can be done by doing a scan on day 11 of the
period. If you are not ovulating, you would need to take tablets like
clomid from the third day of your next period. Irregular periods
associated with PCOS may remain lifelong,and you do not have to worry
about that. Treatment may help to regularise the periods temporarily or
to help you conceive. If you have not conceived after Krimson 35, I
think you should start clomid tablets. |

Question
Had an hsg teston 7th of november 2008 which was
normal.will I concieve am desperate
|
|
|
Answer:You have only mentioned about your tubes. If you are
ovulating and your husband's semen is normal, you should conceive. If
you are not monitoring your ovulation, have a scan done on day 11 of the
period, which will indicate whether you are ovulating or not and what
your fertile period would be. All the best ! |

Question
Dear Doc, I got married nearly 3 years back. Age
is 37 and husband's age is 38. His mortility is low though sperm count
is 58Mill. My hormone and other tests are normal. Docter has prescribed
him Fetryl-M ,HeyForte and Neurobion Forte. But he is having a past
record of Lever problem like Gilbert's Syndrome and severe acidity
problem. Do you advise him to start the Fertyl-M as it is written in the
medicine Precaution page? Please advise as I am very worried about his
health and as well as a kid. Thank you very much.
|
|
|
Answer: Let him take the medication after food to reduce the
problem of acidity because of the drugs. Check the liver function about
one month after taking the medication and if normal, continue the
medication. You have not mentioned the motility, but if it is above 20 %
, you can also try IUI ( intra- uterine insemination) to increase the
chances of conception. All the best! |

Answer:I presume have done ultrasound to determine that you are
ovulating and which would be your fertile period. Also, are your tubes
normal? Send me the comolete semen report, so I can advice whether you
may need IUI ( intra- uterine insemination ). |

Hi Doc,Am 25yrs in SA.Been trying for a bby for
the last 2yrs ,My Gp gave me clomid 50g for 5 days after my period
..Started taking it from the 13-17/09/2008 but i didn't get my period in
October and I bought a pregnancy test and the results were negative.I
went to my gyny no the 1/11/2008 and the doc said its too early to say
if its a pregnancy,My womb its still empty and I should come back the
end of the month.I have irregular periods alwys after 35days.Wht could
be wrong? Don't know if i should wait for the monthend.
|
|
|
Answer: You can do a blood test - beta hcg. This will confirm
whether you are pregnant or not.If that is negative, take duphaston- one
tablet twice a day for 5 days to get a period. |

Question
Dear Doc, I am very distressed, please help me. I
am married and trying to start a family. My last menses were on 16th Of
September. I missed them in month of October and got pregnancy test done
on 8th November which was negative. Hormone progesterone was found to be
11.41 ng/mL and proclatin was above normal at 34.03ng/ML where refernce
value was 1.39 - 24.2. The Doc prescribed me Duphatan for 5 days and
prolcatin till she asks me to discontinue it. I want to start a family.
will i be able to concieve? Is the treatment appropriate
|
|
|
Answer: You have mentioned "and prolcatin till she asks me to
discontinue it"- did you mean you have stopped medication for high
prolactin? Since your prolactin is high you would require some
medication for that.You need to check whether you are ovulating or not
by doing an ultrasound on day 11 of the period. This would also
determine your fertile period. Let me know the result of your scan and
your husband's semen examination , so I can advice you further. |

Question
Hi i am 26. I had my D&C on 31st of july, 2008.
after that i have the problem of bleeding on and off. my doctor
prescribed me famila but afer stopping the use of famila i got my
periods with 5 days which are very heavy and does not seem to stop. i
revisited my doctor and she gave me duphaston 10 mg 3x for 7 days then
2x for 15 days continously. bleeding is stopped but its 17th days today
and i dont have my periods. Please advice.
|
|
|
Answer: You should have got a period within 5-10 days of stopping
the tablets. Since you have not yet got a period, do a urine test for
pregnancy .If that is negative, have a scan done to ensure that you do
not have an ovarian cyst.. |

Question
I have been having an affair for the past year and
am still having sex with my husband. I have developed a tenderness
inside my vigina (rash like and it comes and goes) and it hurts to have
sex with them. Do you think that my lover who I an having unprotected
sex with could cause me to have this rash. Maybe because I only had sex
with my husband for 30 years and now I am having sex with this other man
could this be the cause?
|
|
|
Answer:You could be having the infection without any of your
partners having it. Have a vaginal smear done to determine the type of
infection you have and take appropriate treatment. Check with your
doctor whether your partners would also require treatment, and treat
accordingly. |

Question
hi. i am 23 and i am pregnant. i had sex with a
different guy early morning(3am) on the 19th of october. wednesday i had
sex with my boyfriend and had sex 2 times thursday (morning and night)
friday the 24th i took a opk and it was positive. we didnt have sex. but
saturday morning the 26th my boyfriend and i had sex. wel i took another
opk and it was negative. but later on that day i felt bloated and also
the next day (sunday). wel i took a hpt on the 4th of november and it
was positive. is it possible that the baby could be the other guys child
also. it has been almost 6 days since him and i had sex? i mean, i had
sex with my boyfriend while i was ovulating.
|
|
|
Answer:It is very difficult to answer your question, as one of
your tests maybe wrong. If the opk ( i presume it is ovulation predictor
kit ) was positive on 24th, you would ovulate on 25th October. If you
have conceived on 25th November , the urine test would be positive only
15 days after that on 8th November. As per your urine test being
positive on 4th November, you should have conceived on 21st October. So,
either your opk is wrong or the hpt is wrong or is a very sensitive test
detecting pregnancy before 15 days of conception.Check the sensitivity
of the hpt to help you . |

Question
I hadnt had my peroid for 2 months en nu im
spotting blood plz help i realy need a baby
|
|
|
Answer: I presume you have done a pregnancy test and it is
negative. You have to check whether you are ovulating or not. This can
be done by an LH surge kit or ovulation detection kit . Or , have an
ultrasound done on day 12 of the period to check the size of the
follicle and that would indicate your fertile period. Also, let me know
your husband's semen report, so I can advice you further. |

Question
i am 21 year old girl who gets severe pain during
my periods.now am been asked by my doctor to have Cycloset tonic for
period of 3 months and Trapic M F,during the pain thrice a day.i would
like to know if there would be any future side effects of this medicine.
|
|
|
Answer:I do not have any experience with these medicines,so I
cannot advice you regarding that. I can advice you to take cataflam
tablets- one tablet twice a day for 3 days during the period. Also, have
a scan done on the 5th day of your period to rule out the presence of a
fibroid or an ovarian cyst , which may also increase the pain. |
|
|
|
Question
i am ten days plus late on my period and 8 yrs.
Ago i had a tubaliagtion, my stomach is extremely bloated and i am
discharging water like. What do you think is going on? Could i be
pregnant?
|
|
|
Answer:It is unlikely that you are pregnant, but failures can
occur after tubal ligation. Do a urine test for pregnancy. if negative,
have an ultrasound done to rule out the presence of an ovarian cyst
which can delay the period. Stress or any illness could have also caused
the irregularity. have a pelvic examination done to determine the cause
of the discharge and take appropriate treatment. |

Question
Hellow
dc. i've have spoting that looks like implation for three month now and
the urine and blood test are negative.blood test result:Beta Hcg <1
mul/ml.pls advice me on wat to do
|
|
|
Answer:If the beta hcg is < 1, you are not pregnant. if your
periods a re scanty, have an ultrasound done to rule out the presence of
an ovarian cyst. Also, have your thyroid hormones checked, as an
abnormality in these can also cause scanty periods. |
