View allI'm a bit confused and worried because it's been 19 days since my IUI, and I just got my period. I was taking Susten 200 mg after the procedure. Do you think I need to get any additional scans or take more medicine? Could you give me some advice on what to do next?
If you have gotten period on 19th day of IUI means that you could be having luteal phase deficiency and need hormonal supplementation to augment the luteal phase. You can use intafol D tablets.

I've been dealing with excessive sweating for the past couple of years, and it's to the point where it feels like I've just had a bath. I've had all the tests done and everything seems normal, but it's really bothering me. Is there something that could be causing this or something else I should be looking into? What could be going on here?
Excessive sweating, also known as hyperhidrosis, can be quite bothersome. Since your tests are normal, you may consider trying anticholinergic medications to help reduce sweating. One commonly prescribed medication is Glycopyrrolate, which can be taken orally in a dose of 1-2 mg twice daily. Another option is topical application of Aluminum chloride hexahydrate solution, which can be applied to the affected areas at night. It is important to follow up with your doctor to monitor the effectiveness and any potential side effects of these medications.
