Question 1

I've had issues with acidity ever since I was 14, and now I'm 22. It gets really bad during my periods and a week before they start. The acidity is so severe I can't even stomach plain rice, and it causes my stomach to bloat. Plus, I get these headaches that make it hard to focus on anything. Could you please advise on what to do about this?

A movable, wobbly lump on the lower left side of your rib cage could be a lipoma (benign fatty tumor), a sebaceous cyst, or a hernia. Less commonly, it could be a sign of a more serious condition, such as a splenic tumor or cyst. Consult a primary care physician or a general surgeon for a proper evaluation and diagnosis.

Question 2

I'm really having some trouble during intercourse. When I do oral sex, my erection is strong, but when it comes to penetration, I just can't seem to find the right spot, and I start to lose my erection. I've only been married for two weeks, so this i...

Its not uncommon for men to experience difficulty maintaining an erection during vaginal intercourse, especially in the early stages of marriage. This can be due to anxiety, stress, or the pressure to perform. It may help to focus on relaxation, communicate openly with your partner, and consider consulting a healthcare provider if the issue persists.

Question 3

I'm really stressed out. I recently had my first sexual encounter with a commercial sex worker, and during ejaculation, the condom slipped and ended up hanging in her vagina. It's been 15 days since then and the anxiety has been eating at me. I'm rea...

It's understandable to feel stressed after such an experience, but the risk of HIV transmission from a condom slip is generally low if the condom was used correctly. It's advisable to get an HIV test at 3 months for conclusive results, but if you're very concerned, you can consult with a healthcare provider about the possibility of post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP).

Question 4

I've been really stressed since I had sex on July 10 and July 26 with different partners, both times using protection. The first guy finished inside the condom, and the second didnt finish at all. Im now 40 days late on my period and starting to worr...

Based on the details you shared, including the use of protection, the negative pregnancy tests, and the timing, its highly unlikely that you are pregnant. The delay in your period may be due to stress, illness, or hormonal fluctuations. If your period doesnt arrive soon, consider consulting a doctor for further evaluation. Take care!

Question 5

I'm a bit concerned right now. Over the past few months, my follicular scans showed my endometrium thickness was in good range, over 6mm or even 7.75mm. But this month, it dropped to just 4.8mm. My thyroid profile looks normal with TSH, T3, and T4 le...

Elevated anti-thyroglobulin and anti-TSH antibodies may indicate autoimmune thyroiditis, potentially affecting fertility and pregnancy; taking Thyronorm (thyroxine sodium) as prescribed by the infertility center may help regulate your thyroid function and improve fertility, despite your normal TSH, T3, and T4 levels; the medication might also contribute to the temporary thinning of your endometrium; to promote endometrial growth, your doctor's recommendation of Estradiol Valerate from Day 5 and Duphaston from Day 15 of your cycle may be beneficial, but closely monitor your endometrial thickness and adjust the treatment plan as needed.

Question 6

I'm having issues with irregular periods and I'm also dealing with a thyroid problem. Can you give me some advice on how to manage both of these together? It's been really frustrating and I'm not sure where to start.
