Can period be delayed by 10 days?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Periods can get delayed by any number of days. If next cycle starts from 28 +/- 7 days from the first date of last menstrual cycle then it is considered a normal cycle. A delay of 10 days is not normal and may need evaluation.

View allI'm really worried and looking for some guidance. If a miscarriage happens around the 4th week, what should the HCG levels typically look like at that point, and how do they change after a miscarriage? Also, I'm curious about what the HCG levels are when someone isn't pregnant. How long does it usually take for the HCG levels to return to normal after a miscarriage?
The normal hCG levels at 5 weeks LMP is 18 7,340 mIUml. The hCG level in your blood doubles every two to three days when you're pregnant. If your hCG doubling time is slower than expected, or if it decreases over time, this may be a sign of a miscarriage or an ectopic pregnancy. An hCG level of less than 5 mIUmL is considered negative for pregnancy, and anything above 25 mIUmL is considered positive for pregnancy. It can take a variable amount of time for hCG levels to come to normal after miscarriage but it usually comes to normal within 2 weeks after miscarriage.

I have a 6 cm ovarian cyst on my left side and my cycle length is 40 days but I don't have any abdominal or pelvic pain. Do I really need surgery or can it be managed with contraceptives?
Excision of the cyst is advised to the patient.

I had my period like usual starting on June 16th and it lasted for six days until the 21st. But it's been 67 days now, and since the 26th, I've been experiencing this whitish vaginal discharge along with really bad pain in my legs. It's been going on for two to three days now, and I'm not sure what to do. Could you help me figure out what's happening? It's kind of worrying me.
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms related to an infection or hormonal imbalance. The whitish discharge and leg pain could be a sign of a yeast infection, bacterial vaginosis, or something else, so its important to see a gynecologist for a proper diagnosis and treatment. In the meantime, try to keep the area clean and avoid irritants.
