Please Doc. I got this result on widal test:
salm typhi(d) A0 1/160: TH 1/160
salm paratyphi(A) AO 1/80: TH 1/160
Salm ptyphi (B) AO 1/80 : TH 1/20
Salm ptyphi (C) AO 1/20 : TH 1/80

please i need interpretations. Thank you.
Titres of 1/160 and above are significant (suggestive) for typhoid fever, but that does not always mean someone who got 1/160 or more has typhoid fever.

Refer to the last 2 pages for a little explanation I gave about Widal test and tyohoid fever

So sorry dear for your loss. I'm just seeing this.

It is riskier to wait for the products to expel by themselves. It is unecessary too.

If you havent already done so, the advice is to evacuate it via suction curretage.

If the bleeding is not so heavy too, you may do another scan at another centre to crosscheck. If the report is same, evacuate.

All the best
Good day Doc, my doc did the evacuation via suction curretage on the 30th of July and I was given some drugs to take. I finished the drugs on the 5th of August and I want to run a urine mcs, hvs and a scan just to check if all is okay. When is the best time for me to run these tests? I was thinking of doing them this week but I don't know if the drugs I took would give a false result. Thanks.

Ok.

You can do the scan anytime.

The Urine MCS and HVS are unnecessary if you do not have related symptoms.

Is a follicle size of 23x16mm and 19x10mm ok? Although the follicles are compressing each other and n it giving room for one to expand downwards and the other to expand upward. I though a follicle is round.

Please is it ok for ovulation to take place. Endo thickness is 11mm

Well, this report suggests that most sections of the tubes are patent ('open', not blocked), hence the spillage, but there seems to be some adhesions are the fimbrial ends of the tubes, hence the loculation. The fimbriae are the brush-like parts of the tubes whose main job is to collect released eggs into the tubes for fertilisation.

It means that the fimbrial ends are not patent to allow free passage of the 'HSG Fluid'.

The implication is that eggs from the ovaries cannot enter the tubes easily (if at all), meaning that conception is just as hard (if at all possible for now).

It is, however, probably an improvement from the former report.


So what is the best way to conceive. What Treatment should I undergo to get pregnant

Sorry, I don't where you are coming from...

A follicle is round, but on scan it may not appear a perfect round, and it's a human who takes the measurement.

I do not get your question though

Hi,

Both are possible.

But it is pregnancy until proven otherwise esp if there was unprotected sex within the past few weeks. Do a pregnancy test to comfirm.

Alabukin is not a contraceptive, and could have unknown harmful effects on your health.

There are many safe and effective contraceptives to choose from. Your doctor/qualified nurse can guide you.

All the best.

Well, I couldn't say. If you are doing follicular tracking, you will know if and when they ovulate in time.

If this is a one-off scan, it is hard to suggest what could happen to those eggs.

Hi,

Your roomate's condition needs medical attention.

It is highly abnormal, and dangerous.

It could be a possible miscarriage if she is sexually active. It could also be due to hormonal imbalance, or something else. Whatever it is, it requires urgent medical attention as the bleeding could become profuse suddenly esp if it was a miscarriage.

Doctor-patient consultation is confidential and your history should not be divulged, hence no need to be ashamed.

All the best

Hi,

Your hormone profile is within normal range. What cycle day was the Progesterone test?

The HSG showed evidence of perifimbrial adhesion. Picture this abnormality as a band of tissue that has gummed various structures around the fimbrial part of the tubes together.

Commonest causes of this are chronic PID or aftermath of surgery.

Treatment options include laparoscopy, hydrointubation, surgery and IVF.

Discuss your options with your gynaecologist.

All the best.

Hi,

There is slight irregularity between the cycles. This could be due to many reasons both "normal" and abnormal.

None of the cycle lengths fell outside of the normal range.

Alone, one cannot infer much from this information.

The right andexium harbours an ovoid cystic mass lesion measuring 4.0x3.8cm with low level echoes seen within it.The left adnexium is within normal limits.
Other pelvic organs are normal sonographically.
Conclusion Subserosal Fibroid

Hi,

It depends on the specific reasons for the tests.

However, for general fertility work-up, Day 3 is used for all except progesterone.

Progesterone is done at the midluteal phase of the cycle, to comfirm ovulation. This varies between women, but Day 21 is usually taken for the average cycle length of 28 days. So, progesterone is day 21.

However, if your cycle has been regular, your personal midluteal phase can be more precisely worked out.

Ok.

Then your progesterone level is low for Day 21, suggesting a lack of ovulation for that cycle.

PID is mainly a clinical diagnosis. Lab tests are supportive. Cardinal symtoms of chronic PID are pelvic pain (waist and lower abdomen), vaginal discharge, menstrual irregularities and subfertility. And the doctor can, on examination, elicit many other signs.

Supportive laboratory tests include Endocervical swab, ECS (Not High Vaginal Swab, HVS!), pelvic scan and HSG (if subfertile)


Treatment is with at least a 2-week duration of effective antibiotics, as well as management of any complications
