I've been dealing with this issue for a while and I'm pretty confused about it. I'm 23 and my periods are either super light or almost nonexistent at times. Sometimes I'll just see a tiny bit of blood, and then nothing for the first few days, but then it starts up from the 4th day. It gets me pretty worried. Could you help me understand why this is happening?

Your irregular menstrual bleeding patterns, including delayed onset, reduced flow, or prolonged spotting, could be due to various factors such as hormonal imbalances, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), thyroid disorders, stress, or weight fluctuations; consult a gynecologist for a thorough evaluation, pelvic exam, and potential ultrasound or blood tests to determine the underlying cause and develop a personalized treatment plan.

How does a fibroid of 80mm affect my pregnancy?

I'm feeling really concerned because my husband mentioned he's not satisfied during our intimate moments. He says my vagina feels loose, and it's too wet and sticky, which seems to be putting him off. I'm a mom of two kids, and I'm just not sure what to do about this. Can you give me some advice?
