Hormonal Imbalance and D&C:
- Dilation and Curettage (D&C) generally does not cause hormonal imbalances. It involves the uterus lining, not hormone-producing glands.
-
Post-Procedure Effects:
- Temporary menstrual changes or spotting may occur but are usually short-lived.
-
When to Consult a Doctor:
- If persistent menstrual irregularities or symptoms suggestive of hormonal imbalance occur, consult your gynecologist.
Key Points:
- D&C typically does not cause lasting hormonal imbalance.
- Temporary changes post-procedure are common.
- Persistent symptoms should be evaluated by a healthcare professional.

View allI've been trying to get pregnant for the last 5 months and even saw a doctor back in April. All my blood tests came back normal, and I've been taking folic acid cor3 and amycordial syrup for a couple of months now. My period was 3 days late this time, and I really thought I might be pregnant, but then I noticed a brown discharge in the morning with some white clots. The blood flow seems really thick. I'm just wondering what could be going on and if there's anything I should be doing differently?
Sometimes even in normal individuals due to action of anticoagulants in the body during heavy menstrual bleeding clots can be seen.....apart from this clots and discharge can be seen in certain uterine abnormality like fibroids in uterus,adenomyosis, endometriosis or hormonal imbalance like thyroid hormone imbalance or oestrogen-progestrone imbalance might also be a cause.this things need investigations like transvaginal ultrasound to ruleout the uterine abnormality. Hormone profile to ruleout any imbalance and most of the times the condition is treatable. So kindly consult a gynecologist for further management to ruleout this things.

I'm having a bit of a situation where two fingers can enter the vagina quite easily, but a penis doesn't seem to go in. Is it possible for a non-erected penis to enter the vagina? I'm feeling a bit concerned about this and would really appreciate some advice.
Yes, it is possible for two fingers to enter the vagina more easily than a non-erected penis. This is because the vagina is a flexible organ that can expand and contract. If the penis is not erect, it may not be able to reach the same depth or width of penetration as an erect penis. If you have concerns or discomfort, its important to consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice.

I had unprotected sex on the 15th of May, the day after my period ended. I took an Unwanted 72 pill afterward, but then my period returned on the 19th of May and hasn't stopped since. I'm 19 years old and really worried about this. What should I do?
It seems like the unwanted 72 pill may have caused a hormonal imbalance leading to prolonged bleeding. I recommend you to take Tranexamic acid 500mg thrice a day for 3-5 days to help stop the excessive bleeding. If the bleeding persists or becomes heavy, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.
