Question 1

I've been feeling some slight pain in my left breast, mostly on the side and upper part. It kinda feels like a bruise when I touch it, but the skin looks completely normal. I'm a bit concerned and was wondering what might be causing this. Should I be worried? My period just finished last week. Any thoughts?

Accepted Answer

There are several possible reasons for breast pain, especially around the time of menstruation. Since your period just ended, this could be related to hormonal changes. It is common for women to experience breast tenderness or pain before, during, or after their menstrual cycle. However, other possible causes of breast pain should be evaluated and ruled out. It would be advisable to visit your physician for a consult.

Question 2

my HSG test results say my uterus is normal in shape with no signs of bicornuate septate or arcuate uterus but both fallopian tubes weren't clearly seen though there was free peritoneal contrast and no hydrosalpinx. does this mean i need surgery or can i just take meds to fix this? my radiologist said it's not a big issue but i'm still worried

Accepted Answer

Your HSG results, while showing a normal uterus and free peritoneal contrast, indicate that the fallopian tubes may not be fully patent (open). This could mean they are slightly blocked, though your radiologist seems to believe it's not a significant issue. Further evaluation with a Diagnostic Laparoscopy and Tubal Patency test or a consultation with a fertility specialist is recommended to determine the best course of action

Question 3

I've been in a bit of a dilemma. So, I had unprotected sex with my husband on the third day of my period and decided to take the i-pill just to be safe. Now, my period is way overdue; it's been about 15 days late. I went to see a gynecologist, and she prescribed Meprate 10mg. But I'm unsure about what to do next. Should I just wait it out and see if my period comes naturally, even though it's delayed? Or should I go ahead and take the Meprate to kickstart my cycle? I'm also concerned if there might be any side effects if I start taking it. Will I end up having to rely on medication to get my period from now on? Could really use some advice here.

Accepted Answer

Misses periods is the common sideeffects of ipill. Don't take meprate as it would thicken ur internal lining which has already thickened by ipill causing further periods problem. Just wait u would eventually get ur periods as ipill has got a high success rate

I'm curious about having sex during pregnancy. Is it safe, and if so, up until what month? I really want to make sure my wife and our baby are safe, so are there any extra precautions we should take?
