I've been dealing with some irregular periods lately, and I'm trying to figure out why this might be happening. I'm 22 years old, and this has only started happening in the past few months. What could be the causes for these changes in my menstrual cycle?

Common reasons include hormonal imbalances, stress, excessive exercise, thyroid disorders, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and certain medications. I would recommend consulting with a gynecologist for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. If hormonal imbalance is suspected, birth control pills like "Yaz" can be prescribed to regulate the menstrual cycle.

How effective is M2-Tone syrup for ovarian cysts and fibroids?

It can prevent fibroids

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

I had an ultrasound that showed an enlarged uterus with a large subserosal fibroid measuring 148.8 cm in the right lateral wall and areas of early degeneration, plus another subserosal fibroid in the anterior wall measuring 1.72.2 cm. My ET is 8mm. One doctor recommended surgery, but two others suggested trying to conceive first. I don't have children yet and I'm really confused about what to do should I prioritize surgery or try to get pregnant with these fibroids?

I'm Hema, and I'm 29 years old. I've been feeling really uncomfortable with a lot of itching and burning in my private area. I'm pregnant, currently in my 14th week, so I'm really worried about what's safe for me to use. Could you please suggest some meds or remedies that could help with this?
