Question
I'm really stressed out because I was supposed to get my period around the time of my surgery, but it hasn't happened. I've been worried about the extraction for about a week. Then, I picked up a cough and cold, along with some digestive issues, and had to take a few antibiotics and steroids. I've never missed a period before, and I'm still a virgin, so this is freaking me out a bit. The last time I had my period was around May 15th. Should I be concerned about this delay? What could be causing it?

Elevated Total Bilirubin Level (2.9)
Interpretation and Recommendations
- Mild elevation: A total bilirubin level of 2.9 is slightly elevated, but still within a relatively mild range.
- Possible causes: Elevated bilirubin can be caused by various factors, such as:
- Liver dysfunction or inflammation
- Hemolysis (red blood cell breakdown)
- Bile duct obstruction
- Medication side effects
- Next steps:
- Repeat the test: To confirm the elevated bilirubin level and rule out laboratory errors.
- Liver function tests (LFTs): Schedule a follow-up test to assess liver function and identify potential underlying causes.
- Medical evaluation: Consult your doctor to discuss the results and determine the best course of action.
