Question 1

I'm on my 8th day of bleeding, and my periods usually last just 4 days. This time, I've had clots for 4 days and then light bleeding for the next 4 days. It's day 8 now, and I'm getting a bit concerned. Is there any medication I should consider taking?

Accepted Answer

Frequent Bowel Movements and TB Diagnosis

_Normal Bowel Movement Frequency_

1. 3-4 times a day is considered normal.
2. 5-6 times a day may indicate an issue, such as:
    - Gastrointestinal infection
    - Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
    - Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)

_TB Diagnosis Concerns_

1. _TB diagnosis requires confirmation_: A single symptom, like frequent bowel movements, is not enough to confirm TB.
2. _Additional tests are necessary_: Your doctor should have ordered additional tests, such as:
    - Stool tests
    - Blood tests
    - Imaging studies (e.g., X-rays, CT scans)
    - Endoscopy or colonoscopy

_Next Steps_

1. _Seek a second opinion_: Consult another doctor to confirm the diagnosis.
2. _Request additional testing_: Ensure that all necessary tests are conducted to confirm or rule out TB.
3. _Follow-up appointment_: Schedule a follow-up appointment to discuss test results and determine the best course of action.

Question 3

I'm 15 weeks pregnant and just got my NT scan and double marker tests done. I'm worried about my results and need to know if they're normal. My FBHCG is 193 ngmlis that okay? Also, my biochemical T21 risk is 1:178. Does that mean there's a significant risk? My nuchal translucency is 1.7 mm and NT MoM is 1.09. My report mentions the trisomy 21 risk is negative, as well as the trisomy 1318 screen. Can you help me understand what all this means?

Accepted Answer

Based on your report, your parameters appear normal: the free beta-hCG (193ngml) is within the typical range for 15 weeks gestation, the biochemical T21 risk (1:178) is considered low-risk, and the nuchal translucency (1.7mm) with a MoM of 1.09 is also within normal limits, and with the trisomy 21, 13, and 18 screens all reported as negative, your results indicate a low risk for these chromosomal abnormalities.
