Is it possible to have your period 3 times a month?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Stress, usage of birth control pills, PCOS , are few reasons for menstrual disturbances. Imbalances in the hormonal secretion may result in period disorders as well. The primary hormones contributing to having a period three times a month include female sex hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, Luteinizing Hormone (LH), and Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH). Other than these, higher testosterone levels can also result in period 3 times in one month. Furthermore, anomalies in Thyroid levels may result in irregular periods as well.

I've recently been diagnosed with chlamydia and they prescribed me 500 mg of Azithromycin. I'm 51 years old and weigh 105 lbs. I've been reading that most people are given 1000 mg for treatment. Should I be concerned that I wasn't given the right dosage to cure it? Is this normal or should I reach back out to my doctor?
Be rest assured, your doctor prescribed you the dose that you require. Do not see internet threads. Your doctor knows better. AZYTHROMYCIN is typically given at 500 mg for adults over 18 yrs... So it's appropriate dose for you.

I've been dealing with a cyst on my left ovary, and initially, it was 4cm but now it's shrunk to 3cm. Occasionally, I get these sharp abdominal pains, which are pretty concerning. I also have my periods every 20 to 22 days, but they bring on intense pain in my legs, thighs, and lower left back. My doctor hasn't prescribed any meds for the cyst yet, and I'm wondering if that's something I should be worried about. Is it crucial to get this cyst treated, or will it just resolve on its own? Could it cause issues down the road?
A 3cm ovarian cyst might resolve on its own, especially if it's functional, but the sharp pains and irregular, painful periods suggest it should be monitored closely. If symptoms worsen or persist, treatment may be needed to prevent complications like rupture or fertility issues. Discuss further with your doctor.
