Question 1

I'm really worried because after getting a steroid injection in my shoulder for nerve damage, I've been having severe stomach pain. Is this normal? What should I do about it?

Accepted Answer

Steroid injections can sometimes lead to stomach pain due to irritation of the stomach lining or acid reflux. While mild discomfort may resolve with over-the-counter remedies, severe stomach pain should not be ignored. You should reach out to your doctor to evaluate the cause of the pain and ensure proper treatment.

Question 2

I heard that the WHO has changed their guidelines for the rabies vaccine. It used to need 5 doses, but now I'm not sure what the current recommendation is. Can you shed some light on how many doses are needed now? I'm a bit worried about making sure ...

Accepted Answer

Duphaston (Dydrogesterone) is a progesterone medication that can affect menstrual cycles.

_Possible Causes of Delayed Periods_

1. _Hormonal imbalance_: Duphaston can alter hormonal balances, potentially delaying periods.
2. _Progesterone's effect_: Progesterone can prolong the luteal phase, leading to delayed periods.
3. _Individual response_: Everyone's body reacts differently to medications, and some women may experience delayed periods due to Duphaston.

_What to Expect_

1. _Wait a few more days_: If you've taken Duphaston for 10 days, wait a few more days to see if your period starts.
2. _Consult your doctor_: If your period doesn't start within the next 7-10 days, consult your doctor to discuss further management.

_Remember_

1. _Duphaston is not a contraceptive_: It's essential to use contraception to prevent unintended pregnancy.
2. _Monitor your body_: Pay attention to any changes in your body, such as spotting, cramping, or breast tenderness.

I'm really worried because I took the unwanted kit but I'm not bleeding. Should I try taking another one? If so, how many days should I wait? I'm 4 weeks pregnant and not considering surgical abortion. What should I do?

If there is still no bleeding after a few days, you should have an ultrasound. If you still do not bleed within a few days (and you are positive that you were pregnant), then you may have either an ectopic pregnancy or a continuing pregnancy and you should have an ultrasound
