Do you lose weight after your period?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It's normal to have some weight gain before or during your period due to hormonal fluctuations, water retention and food cravings. Generally, it will go away a few days after your period starts which seems like you lost weight after period.

View allWhat does ovarian cyst pain feel like?
Cysts in the ovary often don't cause any symptoms. If they're large, you may feel either a dull or sharp pain on one side of your pelvis or abdomen. You may also feel bloated, or a heaviness in your lower abdomen. If the cyst ruptures, you'll feel a sudden, sharp pain.

I'm a bit worried about my wife who's in her 7th week of pregnancy. She's been having a really tough time with vomiting and just can't seem to keep anything down. The doctor suggested she try Emeset 4mg, but after taking it, she's been feeling uncomfortable with some stomach pain and constipation. I looked it up online, and now I'm confused because there are mixed opinions about using it during pregnancy. Do you think it's safe for her to continue with this medication, or should we consider switching to something else?
Emeset (Ondansetron) can be used in pregnancy but should be done so under careful medical supervision. If she continues to experience discomfort, it's essential to contact her healthcare provider for possible medication adjustment or a safer alternative.

I'm a 32-year-old married woman who had an ovarian cyst removed 5 years ago along with my left ovary, so now only my right ovary is left. Recently my doctor suggested an MRI pelvis and S.AMH test my S.AMH result was 2.33, and the current ovarian cyst size is 4.5x4.3 cm. Is this cyst really dangerous enough to require surgery, or can it be treated with medicines? I'm really worried and need advice
With an ovarian cyst of 4.5 cm, if it’s benign, medications like birth control pills or hormone therapy can sometimes manage it. Surgery may be necessary if it causes pain or grows. The S.AMH level of 2.33 suggests ovarian reserve is still reasonable, but discuss options with your gynecologist.
