How many pads per day is normal?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Periods have heavy flow volume and less flow volume days and may usually last for 4 to 6 days. It is hard to define normalcy of number of pads per day. On total, one to seven normal sized pads or tampons per period are normal.

View allI'm a bit worried about something going on with my wife. She's 18 weeks pregnant, and for the past month, she's been experiencing these shivers in the middle of the night, like once a week. They only last a short time, maybe 30 seconds to a couple of minutes. She feels really cold when it happens, but then shes back to normal pretty quickly. Is this something we should be concerned about? Its only happened twice, but I just want to make sure everything's okay. What do you think?

I'm really worried because my husband has mentioned that he's not as interested in our intimacy anymore. I think my vagina might have become looser over time. Can you please give me some advice or suggest ways to help me tighten it? I'm looking for something effective, as I want to improve our relationship.
To tighten your vagina, try Kegel exercises (squeeze and release pelvic muscles for 10-15 reps, 3-4 times a day), pelvic floor physical therapy, or vaginal cones; also, consider incorporating estrogen-boosting foods, like soybeans and flaxseeds, into your diet, and maintain a healthy weight; however, it's essential to remember that vaginal looseness is a common issue, especially after childbirth or aging, and open communication with your partner about your concerns and feelings can also help address the emotional aspect of this issue.

I'm noticing that on the third day of my period, there's either no flow or it's really light, and this has been happening for the past couple of months. Is this something I should be concerned about, or is it just a normal variation?
Gynaecologist opinion is advised to the patient.
