I've had these lumps in my breasts for about 3 years now. I don't usually feel pain, but maybe once or twice a month it does hurt a bit. I'm really worried if this could be breast cancer. I'm thinking of getting it checked out. Should I see a gynecologist first, or should I go straight for a cancer screening? What do you recommend?

I'm a bit confused and worried. I only took one sylate and now I've missed my period, and it turns out I'm pregnant. I don't get it because I thought all the days I was with my husband this month and last month were supposed to be safe days. Can you help me understand what might have happened?

Borderline Short PR Interval_ 1. _Definition*: A PR interval measures the time between the onset of the P wave and the start of the QRS complex. A borderline short PR interval is typically considered to be between 120-140 milliseconds. 2. _Causes*: A borderline short PR interval can be caused by various factors, including: - Enhanced atrioventricular (AV) node conduction - Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome - Lown-Ganong-Levine (LGL) syndrome - Cardiac electrolyte imbalances 3. _Treatment*: Treatment depends on the underlying cause. If the borderline short PR interval is caused by an accessory electrical pathway (WPW or LGL syndrome), treatment may involve: - Catheter ablation to destroy the accessory pathway - Medications to regulate heart rhythm - Pacemaker implantation (in some cases) 4. _Worry level*: A borderline short PR interval is generally not a cause for concern. However, it's essential to consult a cardiologist to determine the underlying cause and receive proper guidance.

I'm curious about what to expect after taking Crina NCR 15. If someone uses it once daily for 5 days, how long until they should expect their period to start? Also, could you explain how Crina NCR 15 actually works?

Crina NCR 15, containing norethisterone 15mg, is a progesterone-only pill that can help regulate menstrual cycles; when taken once daily for 5 days, it can induce withdrawal bleeding, which is often mistaken for a period; typically, withdrawal bleeding occurs 2-4 days after finishing the 5-day course, so you may expect bleeding around 7-9 days after starting Crina NCR 15.
