My mother has been dealing with recurring bleeding for the past 5 years, and it keeps happening every year. Each time, medications like Pause MF or Sevista stop the bleeding, but now the doctor prescribed Pause MF and Deviry 10mg. The doctor is suggesting open surgery to remove her uterus instead of laparoscopy. I've attached the reports what would you recommend in this situation? Is open surgery the only option or could laparoscopy still be considered?

It's understandable to be concerned about your mother's recurring bleeding and the potential for surgery. While an open hysterectomy (removing the uterus) is a definitive solution, laparoscopy (a minimally invasive procedure) should also be considered. If the underlying cause of the bleeding is not completely resolved, open surgery might be necessary, but it's crucial to explore other options first, especially if your mother isn't yet ready for menopause.

I'm 23 and I've taken the ipill three times this year. I'm worried about whether I should consult a doctor about it. Could there be severe side effects from using it so often? How often is it safe to use the ipill?

I-pills are emergency contraceptive pills and there is no problem in taking 3 pills in a year.

I'm feeling really nauseous and getting vertigo after taking the ipill. I'm also feeling really weak. Is there anything specific I should avoid eating? Maybe there's a diet plan you can suggest to help with these symptoms?

Your liver function test results show slightly elevated SGPT (49) and bilirubin levels. The bilirubin indirect level (1.47) is close to the upper limit of normal. Fibrosis value (liver stiffness) of 6.3 kPa indicates mild fibrosis. Consult your doctor or a gastroenterologist to discuss these results. They may recommend further tests, such as an ultrasound or liver biopsy, to assess liver health. In the meantime, maintain a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet, regular exercise, and avoiding excessive alcohol consumption.
