I did an IUI on February 15th, and my last period started on February 1st. I havent gotten my period yet, and the pregnancy test is negative. Im getting period-like cramps on and off, which is confusing because I'm usually pretty regular. Could you help me understand what's going on?

It is possible that the delay in your period and the presence of cramping could be due to various reasons such as hormonal imbalances, stress, changes in diet or exercise, or even the aftermath of the IUI procedure. It is important to monitor your symptoms and consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and guidance. In the meantime, you can consider taking medications like Medroxyprogesterone to help induce a period if deemed appropriate by your doctor.

View allI've been dealing with hypothyroidism for about two years now, and my TSH level is currently 17. I'm really concerned and wondering how I can get it back to a normal range. I'm taking 100mg of Electrocin every day. Could you give me some advice on what else I might be able to do?
With a TSH level of 17, your hypothyroidism treatment needs adjustment. Here's a step-by-step plan: *Medication Adjustment* 1. *Consult your doctor*: Inform your doctor about your current TSH level and medication (100mg Electrocin). 2. *Dose increase*: Your doctor may increase your levothyroxine (T4) dosage to achieve normal TSH levels. *Lifestyle Changes* 1. *Diet*: Ensure adequate iodine intake through foods like seafood, dairy, and iodized salt. 2. *Selenium-rich foods*: Include selenium-rich foods like nuts, seeds, and fish to support thyroid function. 3. *Regular exercise*: Engage in moderate-intensity exercise, like brisk walking, to improve overall health. 4. *Stress management*: Practice stress-reducing techniques like yoga, meditation, or deep breathing exercises. *Monitoring and Follow-up* 1. *Regular TSH tests*: Schedule follow-up TSH tests every 6-8 weeks to monitor treatment progress. 2. *Adjust medication as needed*: Work with your doctor to adjust your medication dosage based on TSH test
