Re: Doctor In The House:Obstetrics And Gynecology by Eumaca: 4:11pm On Aug 26, 2013
Pls doc, I started bleeding on my CD14, it started little for a whole day before it came flowing heavily for the next three days. My doctor gave me Primolut to be taken for 7 days(twice daily). On the fifth day I had serious migraine so I discontinued. Two days later on CD25, I started bleeding again.
I am really confused now. I don't even know which one to count as CD1 as this is the third time I m bleeding this month, 1st, 14th, 25th. The doctor said I don't have fibroid . What could be the cause? And I need to get pregnant.
Re: Doctor In The House:Obstetrics And Gynecology by Bcolah(f): 10:08pm On Aug 26, 2013
Hmmm, I've been ttc for a couple of months now. Did blood work, 'twas fine, hsg was fine too. Dh had zero sperm count and high fsh 33.890 and lh 16.78, total testosterone 3.08, prolactin 158.30.

Recently, I had severe cramps after my period for like 5 days and watery discharge. Did a scan and was told PID was likely.
Don't know if my PID infected dh. Could it be the reason for his no sperm count too.
Yet to do hvs though.

Would appreciate ur response

kathyekiti: Hello,
I am an ob/gyn in private practice in NY.  I will be willing to answer Ob/Gyn questions with the normal perfunctory disclaimer.  Thank you Dr. Balogun and Naijaking for this great idea.

It has been over a year since I started on this thread.  I would like to thank all of you for allowing me the opportunity to help my own with the skills I have learnt in a foreign land.  You all have been more than gracious with your blessings, thanks, and prayers.  This being said, I am not here everyday.  This is work I do pro bono on my own time.  I am in a busy private practice and I try to answer questions as soon as possible.  Please refrain from follow up posts asking why I have not responded.  Thank you so so much
7/3/09
I thoroughly enjoy helping however, although I have asked politely, several posters are still repeating their posts.  It makes the thread longer than it needs to be.  Henceforth, I will not reply any posts that are repeated within a week.  Thank you and I look forward to helping you

Causes of superficial dyspareun ia include vaginitis such as candida vulvovaginitis, vaginismus, scarring from previous surgeries such as repair of episiotomy, colporrhaphy, or simply from inadequate pre-intimacy before intercourse.
Causes of deep dyspareunia include endometriosis, pelvic masses like fibroids, pelvic inflammatory disease/ pelvic infection.
Go and see ur gynaecologist, so he can diagnose the problem and offer appropriate treatment

Julbu: Please does right ovarian mass prevent pregnancy.i ve been ttc for over a year

Not typically, except it is a hormone secreting tumor such as a virilizing ovarian tumor which is very rare. Or if it is an endometrioma. Nevertheless, its essential u have a scan done to characterize the type of mass and its dimensions, that is whether simple/complex cyst, bilateral or not, papillary excrescenses on surface or not, ascites etc whoch could suggest a malignancy. Your gynae can better advise u on the next line of action based on the type of mass it is.
Note, could be a functional, benign or malignant cyst

u think its not advisable 4 me 2 do it?tnx
As per normal delivery, its not advisable because of the risk of uterine rupture, which most times claims the life of baby, may lead to death of the mother or during the surgery, the fallopian tubes are tied (meaning u cant concieve again) or the uterus is removed altogether if the tear ia much. An elective cs at term, or at least at 36 weeks, before the onset of labour is advisable
U can start trying for another baby now I.e. as its 3 years since ur last delivery

Also u need to be screened during pregnancy for gestational diabetes mellitus with a 1 hour 50 g glucose challenge test when u are 24 to 28 weeks pregnant, in view of the weight of ur first baby

Common causes of intermenstrual bleeding include a submucous fibroid or endometrial polyp. It may also overlap with causes of post coital bleeding ( bleeding after sex) which include chronic cervicitis, cervical erosion, cervical polyp etc it could also be due to a midcycle estradiol surge (but its unlikely based on ur description). Get a transvaginal scan done and let ur gynae examine ur cervix.

SYMPTOMS AND TREATMENT OF TUBERCULOSIS.

Tuberculosis can affect anyone and anywhere. It is
estimated that approximately 1/3 of the world's
population has been infected by mycobacterium
tuberculosis. Currently, tuberculosis is the third largest
cause of death after cardiovascular disease and
respiratory disease. Tuberculosis is a disease of the
biggest causes of death in the group of infectious
diseases. Until now, tuberculosis remains a global health
problem and foremost.

How Tuberculosis is contracted

Tuberculosis is an infectious disease cause by
mycobacterium tuberculosis germ. Tuberculosis (TB) is
transmitted through the air (through the spark sputum
tuberculosis patients). When people with TB cough,
sneeze, talk or spit, they sprinkle the tuberculosis
bacteria into the air. A person can be exposed by
inhaling the bacteria,a small number of tuberculosis
germs can infect someone. In children the source of
infection is generally derived from adult patients with TB.Patients with tuberculosis with status of positive acid-fastbacilli can infect at least 10 to 15 people every year.
These bacteria when frequently entered and
accumulated in the lungs, will develop well into a lot and
can be spread through blood vessels or lymph nodes.
Therefore, infection of TB can infect virtually all body
organs like the lungs, brain, kidney, gastrointestinal
tract, bone, lymph nodes, and others. The Organs often
infected with tuberculosis bacteria is the lungs.
Someone who is infected with TB germs do not
necessarily become ill. Tuberculosis germs can become
inactive (dormant) for many years to form a cell wall in
the form of a thick layer of wax. When a person's
immune system declines, likely contracted the illness
tuberculosis becomes greater.

Tuberculosis symptoms

The main symptoms of patients with tuberculosis are
coughing up phlegm for 2 to 3 weeks or more. Cough
followed by additional symptoms of phlegm mixed with
blood, coughing up blood, shortness of breath, body
weakness, decreased appetite, weight loss, malaise,
night sweats without physical activity, fever more than 1
month. These symptoms can also be found in lung
diseases other than tuberculosis, such as bronchitis,
asthma, lung cancer and others.

How to Tuberculosis Test

In children, tuberculin test is most useful examination to
show whether the child is infected with mycobacterium
tuberculosis. But it is often done with Monteux test.
Monteux test injection site is generally on the upper half
left forearm. It is injected into the skin and in wait for 48
~ 72 hours in measuring the diameter of the swelling
that occurs.

Treatment of tuberculosis

Treatment of tuberculosis lasts long(6-9 months) even
more than that. Patients with tuberculosis can be cured
by taking drugs completely and regularly and to improve
the immune system with good nutrition and regular
exercise.

wat do i do, is it normal?

It is not normal since it had not been so from the beginning.
But you will need to see a doc.It may be an indication of sexually transmitted
infections such as Gonorrhea (condition referred to as PID) that have caused the inflation of the uterus.
And sometimes the cause is not too clear.You will have to c a doc for proper diagnoses.
