Doctor In The House:Obstetrics And Gynecology

@ Doc Kath
It can be done.  I would see another gynecologist.  Word of caution, it can be very bloody surgery and the shape of the vulva changes with age and childbirth.

Thanks so much for your response.

Honestly, i would suggest she trim it off as she has lost two relationships because of her condition. Her last fiance complained he might get infected if he continues with her.

for how long do u think it can get healed after the surgery ( d last operation was carried out March 2007)

She will be  most greatfull if u can help and thanks in advance

Dear Doc Katty,

Compliments of the season! May God in His Glory bless you and your family.  May He reward you abundantly for all you selfless work and advice to mankind with open and cheerful heart and without collecting penny.  Informations some doctors charged thousands to give out.  You're a blessing to mothers at large. May you live long in Jesus Name, Amen.

Doc, please i want to ask you to know when am likely to ovulate this month.  My three months period was on:

March 9th
April 12th
and May 9th.  When am i likely to ovulate or better still,  my fertility dates or days.

Sorry for the inconveniences.

Remain blessed,


EVY

Thanks Doctor for your reply. May the Almighty Lord continues to bless you, Amen.

hello katty ,

thank God i finally saw my period on the 10th May, 2009. I suspect the period regulated it self. i assumed the last one of March 24th 2009 was the actually period but the light flow that i saw on the 10th of April was equally my period. counting my usual 30 MC it fall between the 10th of May, 2009.
please when am i likely to ovulate using my usual 30 MC.

thanks in advance katty for your response.

She doesn't have to be on bed rest and she should get cervical length u/s every two weeks

Dear Dr Kathy,

Been reading past posts to see anything,i mean anything at all similar to what happened to my preg of 20wks.and i did find one which was 22wks with sudden burst of the membrane and all.above is a response u gave in one of your replies.Cervical lenght u/s?does that u/s mean ultra sound?

To be honest with you,i know i should dwelling more on the solution rather than the problem. But how do i know the solution when i dont seem to know the problem? I saw another Dr yesterday in another clinic and he said he would not conclude on saying i had a weakness of the Cervix because of how the miccarriage occured. He said a miscarriage would be more sudden with the condition rather than the process of going into labour that happened in my case.But that if i felt okay with the Cerclage all well and good which of course i will certainly go for to be on the safe side. And again he's running all sorts of tests to eliminate infections,High Bp and the rest.

My fear again is this issue of infections after the cerclage has been put into place.Is there anything that can be done or given to avoid such infections?it used to be fear of Labour,now have seen that.i think anyone can bear it if one looks at the outcome but now it's fear of getting preg and a reoccurence!

Thanks so much4 your much anticipated response and time!

@shadegirl
It is person dependent.  Good luck

@arambambi
It is 14days before the menses not from the menses

@mypeace
I think you should go to your gyn for a check

@jody
Ovulation occurs 14days before menses

@ant01
I think you are doing great!!  The pessaries are just fine.  Keep me posted

hello doctor,

Pls am still waiting for my reply sir and some days to my period my nipples are pains me alot dat i find it diffcult to wear bra but immediately i start mesrating it stop but during dat time is had sex hope it means no harm.

Pls tell me when am to av sex i start my period on 18th of may -22nd of may pls when is my ovlation day and is it 1day or five days as in the ovlation

I am among those that have not been able to effectively calculate their ovulation period. I have been married for 2½  years without any fruit of the wmb
I have my February menstruation on 25th, march on 25th & April on 22nd. Each of these was normally for 5 days. But I saw my menses again on Monday may 18th and slightly on 19th but had not seen it since the. I have sex with my husband on Sunday may 17th. Can I be pregnant?
A week before that I had some pain on the lower part of my abdomen and I went to the clinic but after taking my blood sample for test, the Dr says she didn’t see any sign of pregnancy & gave me some drugs but also referred me to do a scan.

Can you advise based on this

hi doctor kathy,pls enlighten me further,i tried having sex with my boyfriend for the first time(was a virgin@26)it was so bloody and painful. the second time i tried it with him(about a month later) i didnt allow him to penetrate further cos i was still uncomfortable and there was still bloodshed but not as much as before. is this normal or should i be concerned? i havent allowed him to touch me since then.

Dear doc, here is my story! My LMPwas 13/04/2009. On the second day my doc placed me on clomid for 5days and timed my intercourse. It did work, on 16 may i took a home test which came out +ve. but on the 18th i started spoting(dirty brown) but no cramps. I had a blood test at my doc's and it was +ve. I have bn placed on progesterone supplement(duphaston and primolut inj. weekly) my u/s result showed dat my endometrial plate was thickened,my uterus enlarged but no sac seen yet. My concern is that i spotted for abt 5days though not heavy. What do you think pls? Thank you for your kindness.

@ mypeace
I don't think you had a miscarriage.  I think your cycle changed because of the D&C.

@oluwawunmi
It is normal for you to have breast tenderness before your period.  Once again, you ovulate ~ 14 days before the start of menses.  Good luck

@curios cat
This is normal.  You might want to use a lubricant.  I would also suggest that you make sure he has been tested for stds before having unprotected sex.

@uchebuakpa
After looking at these figures, it looks like you have a low volume of sperm and poor motility.  however, it is hard to draw conclusions from just one sample.  If a repeat sample is the same or similar, I think invitro fertilization would be the way to go for you if finances are not an issue. A cheaper alternative could be intrauterine insemination where your sperm is collected, I would suggest several times, and inserted via cannula into the uterus on the day your wife ovulates.

Dear Doc,
i have gone for another test in the same hospital and i ve been confirmed pregnant.  The problem i have now is i always feel very dizzy and tired, wen i complained to the doc, she gave me some blood tablets and folic acid tablets to last 4 5 days, after the exhauston of those tablets, wat else can i take because i was told i cant register for ante-natal until d 3rd month, n i wldnt want to be feelin like dis til wen i can start d ante-natal care, tanx
