I've been experiencing spotting after my periods for the past year. My doctor mentioned it might be an infection or a polyp in the uterus. Can you help me understand what's going on? I'm worried and just want to know the right reason behind this.

Spotting after periods for 1 year could be due to various reasons, including hormonal imbalances, uterine polyps, or infections like endometritis or pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), and while your doctor suspects an infection and polyp, other possible causes like adenomyosis, fibroids, or cervical lesions should also be considered, so further diagnostic tests like ultrasound, hysteroscopy, or endometrial biopsy may be necessary to determine the underlying cause.

View allI had unprotected sex with my fiance and took the ipill about 14 hours later. A couple of days after taking it, I experienced some vaginal bleeding. Should I be concerned about this, or is it a normal side effect of the ipill?
It's normal to experience vaginal bleeding a few days after taking the i-Pill, as it's a common side effect due to hormonal changes. This is usually not a cause for concern. However, if the bleeding is heavy or prolonged, or if you miss your next period, consider consulting a doctor to rule out other issues.

I've been trying to figure out what's going on. I had a miscarriage back in December 2014, and my doctor mentioned it was due to a viral infection with terms like cytomegalovirus and Rubella igG coming up, and something about HSV 12 igG too. After a TORCH profile test, my gyno told me to wait six months before trying again, but it's been eight months now, and I still can't get pregnant despite following all the doctor's instructions. I'm feeling pretty worried and wondering what steps I should take next. Any advice on what I might be missing?
Consider a follow-up appointment with your gynecologist to reassess your fertility and discuss further testing, such as ovulation tracking, semen analysis, and hormonal evaluations, to identify potential underlying causes for delayed conception; also, ask about additional blood tests to check for immunity to cytomegalovirus and other infections, and explore options like fertility supplements, lifestyle modifications, or fertility treatments like IUI or IVF.

I'm planning for a baby and have some questions about health checks before we start trying. What tests should my husband and I get done to make sure everything is okay for pregnancy? I'm also scheduled for LASIK eye surgery soon will that affect my baby plans? What general health and fitness steps should we focus on before conceiving?
Please do basic tests like CBC, TSH, RBS, RUBELLA IGG, HPLC, VIRAL MARKERS to be sure that all her parameters are normal and we do not need any medication or vaccine. If you do not conceive naturally for 3 months then do a semen analysis also. Best time to have relation is day 10 to day 17
