What are the signs of fibroids shrinking?

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

Acute stabbing pain and swelling in the abdomen. The pain and swelling are caused by the release of chemicals from the fibroids as the cells die. Fever is another sign of fibroid shrinking.

Hey, I've been having this weird situation with my period for the last two months. It just doesn't stop properly. It halts for like two days and then starts again with either a little spotting or suddenly, these heavy clots show up. Itll be calm for 23 days and then bam, its like were back to the beginning. To manage this, I've been taking Styplon Himalaya, and it seems to work until it doesn't because as soon as I stop, the cycle starts all over again. Could you please suggest what might be happening or what I should do?

Prolonged bleeding or irregular cycles for two months is abnormal and requires medical attention. The underlying cause could be hormonal imbalances, structural issues (like fibroids or polyps), or an infection. A gynecologist will be able to conduct tests and determine the appropriate treatment to address the cause of your irregular bleeding.

I'm a bit concerned because my recent TVS scan at 5 weeks and 5 days showed the yolk sac and fetal pole, but there wasn't a heartbeat detected yet. Should I be worried? Is it possible that the heartbeat will be detected in the next scan? Can you offer some guidance on what this might mean?

At 5 weeks and 5 days of pregnancy, it is not uncommon for the fetal heartbeat to not be detected yet. It is possible that the heartbeat may be detected in your next scan. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and monitoring.
