Can periods just stop at 49?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Menopause is the time that marks the end of your menstrual cycles. It's diagnosed after you've gone 12 months without a menstrual period. Menopause can happen in your 40s or 50s, but the average age is 51 in India.

View allMy mom needs open abdominal surgery to remove fibroids but our insurance only covers a general 6-bed ward in a well-known Mumbai hospital. Would she be better off staying there or going for a twin-sharing room in a smaller hospital? I'm worried about her comfort and recovery.
I can understand your concern. With your health policy documents comes a document in which all the affiliated hospital names are listed. Whichever you find the best, you can go there and get it operated. Any gynecologist would be able to perform this surgery. Therefore you have to consult a gynecologist of your choice and a hospital of your choice as per your insurance and then consult there.

I'm currently in my 35th week of pregnancy and just did a growth scan today. They said my placenta is at grade 1 maturity. Plus, my baby is positioned in the anterior upper segment. Should I be concerned about the placenta maturity grade at this stage? And is the baby's position in the anterior upper segment considered normal?
