View allI'm dealing with something that's been bugging me and could really use some advice. I was diagnosed with minor PCOD back in July 2015. My periods were delayed back then, but they eventually started happening naturally without any medication. To be on the safe side, I went ahead with PCOD treatment, and that's when my anxiety kicked in, which I find a bit confusing. So, after about three months, my ultrasound reports came back normal, and my PCOD seems to be cured. But there's this one thingmy periods are now really scanty, only bleeding for about a day. I used to bleed for around 3 days before all this started. Some people tell me it's all in my head, probably because of high stress and my anxiety disorder. It's confusing because I feel like PCOD might be the root cause of my anxiety, but now that it's supposedly cured, I'm wondering why my periods aren't normal. Any thoughts on what's going on with me?
reduce your stress. Maintain the regular diet and start doing exercises

How many pads a day is normal?
A very rough estimate would be four or five pads, assuming that you're getting at least the recommended 7 hours of sleep at night.

I'm in my 7th month of pregnancy and started having this cough since last night. Could you suggest any remedies? I'm really concerned if this could be harmful to my baby.
As a pregnant woman in your 7th month, it's essential to manage your cough safely; consider trying warm liquids like tea or broth, honey, and saline drops; avoid cough medicines containing alcohol, caffeine, or codeine; instead, opt for pregnancy-safe cough medications like dextromethorphan or guaifenesin, after consulting your obstetrician; in general, a cough itself doesn't harm the baby, but underlying conditions like pneumonia or bronchitis can, so monitor your symptoms and seek medical attention if they worsen or persist.
