I'm dealing with really heavy menstrual bleeding and decided to take Pause 500 on the sixth day of my period. I'm just wondering, could this affect my cycle in any way, or is there a chance that just one tablet might completely stop my period?

View allI'm a bit worried because my period is late by 4 days this month, even though they've been regular before. Last month, my period started on September 2nd, but I had dengue then and maybe because of the fever or weakness, my flow was really low. Do you think there's something wrong or should I be concerned? Could you give me some advice on what to do next?
It's not uncommon for your menstrual cycle to be slightly delayed after an illness like dengue, as it can affect your hormones and overall health. If the delay is only a few days and there are no other concerning symptoms, it should be okay, but if the delay continues or you experience unusual symptoms, it might be worth consulting your doctor for reassurance.

My sister-in-law is 38 with three kids and has been having lower abdominal pain for the past year. She just found out she has fibroids in her uterus and might need surgery to remove her uterus. Are there any medications that can shrink the fibroids so she can avoid surgery?
Yes, there are medications that can potentially shrink fibroids and may help avoid hysterectomy, but it's crucial for her to discuss all options with her doctor. Medications like gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRHAs) can reduce fibroid size and potentially make surgery less invasive.

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.
