Question 1

I have a cycle of 35 days and am not sexually active. Last year I got my USG done and it was normal and my blood report showed prolactin level of 70 so the doctor gave me Cabergoline 0.5 and then everything was okay. This month I am four days late and my vagina is dry with no secretions. I am feeling heaviness in the lower abdomen as if my period is going to come but it is late and not coming. Is dryness in the vagina at this time normal. What shall I do? I am really concerned please help asap.

What does a lipid profile test represent?

Question 3

I had a complete body checkup a few months back and found that my SGOT and LDL cholesterol levels were slightly higher than normal. My report showed SGOT 36 optimal less than 34, SGPT 47 optimal 10 to 49, and LDL cholesterol 109.5 optimal less than 100. I did the same tests again two days ago from a different lab, and the results are SGOT 33 is 15 to 37, SGPT 63 is 16 to 63, and LDL cholesterol 110 is 70 to 180. I am not sure if the biological reference ranges given in both reports are correct, as they are different, and I am unable to understand if my current levels are fine. Can you please tell me the correct levels and if the reports are normal?

Why do blood tests have to be repeated every few months?

The doctor only asks you to repeat the test every few months if the tests are boderline or very high. Then they must be checked routinely to ensure that organs are working fine.
