Can periods just stop at 49?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Menopause is the time that marks the end of your menstrual cycles. It's diagnosed after you've gone 12 months without a menstrual period. Menopause can happen in your 40s or 50s, but the average age is 51 in India.

I'm about 6 weeks pregnant and I've been having this light green vaginal discharge every day since week 4. There's no itching, but I'm really worried about why it's happening. I'm on thyroxine, progesterone, and folic acid tablets. Could this be related, or should I be concerned about something else?

It can cause problems during pregnancy, such as preterm birth. Trichomoniasis: A sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by the parasite trichomonas vaginalis. It can cause a green discharge. Gonorrhea or chlamydia: Other STIs that can cause green discharge. Yeast infection: Also known as candidiasis, this is one of the most common vaginal infections during pregnancy. Urinary tract infection (UTI): Can cause discharge during pregnancy and may need to be treated.So consult gynaecologist for the same
