I'm really worried because it feels like there's a water ball in my stomach. I don't know what the exact medical term is for it. Should I be seeing a gynecologist or a gastroenterologist to get this checked out?

The presence of a "water ball" in the stomach could refer to fluid accumulation, possibly indicating a cyst, ascites, or another condition. It's best to consult a gastroenterologist first, as they specialize in digestive system issues, including the stomach. If it's related to gynecological causes, the gastroenterologist may refer you to a gynecologist for further evaluation.

I'm curious if it's normal for someone to feel more sexual or have a stronger urge to watch porn during their period. My sister experiences this, and I'm wondering if there's something behind it hormonally or psychologically. Is this something that you've come across before?

It's not uncommon for some people to experience heightened sexual urges during their periods due to hormonal changes. However, it's important to ensure that she feels comfortable with her desires and makes choices that align with her values and well-being.

I've been dealing with PCOD and I'm a bit worried. My doctor initially put me on Diane 35, and while I was on it, my periods were regular. After stopping, I had one more regular cycle, but now I've missed two months. My doctor has prescribed duphaston 10mg for five days to try and trigger a period, and then Im supposed to go back on Diane 35 for another three months. Is this a normal plan? Should I be concerned about the missing periods or the medication? Just trying to figure out if this makes sense.

My left ovary has something called an enlarged cyst that measures about 27x21mm, and I've been having really heavy stomach pains and bleeding during my periods. The pain's been so bad that I feel like throwing up sometimes. My periods are also delayed. Should I be worried about the cyst or all these symptoms, or is there something particular this might be indicating?

Your symptoms could be related to an ovarian cyst. The delay in periods, heavy stomach pain, and bleeding during periods, along with vomiting, are concerning symptoms. I recommend you consult with a gynecologist for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can take pain relief medication such as ibuprofen (e.g., Advil) to help with the stomach pain. The usual dosage for ibuprofen is 200-400mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
