Memunah:
Hello doctors in the house
I need your help.. Started having this pain at the lower right hand side of my tummy in July last year.It stopped later on.Then by October 2018 the pain was severe..went in for a pelvic scan and a cyst was seen on my right ovary.
The size(25*30.77)mm
I was given some antibiotics and pain relief drugs.I got relieved.
Then I notice this pain comes when I am ovulating.
Went in for a scan today again and it's still same size. Right now I am feeling that pain again though milder than before.
My doctor keeps saying it will go itself and really I am tired.
I am getting married in few months time.Does this in anyway affect giving birth?
What can I use please?
I am tired already.

House please has anyone used anything that worked for ovarian cyst?..Help me o

It does not in anyway affect child birth. If it's only a functional cyst it will definitely go on it own. However, if it's long enough without a fall in size or if it is found to be increasing in size, a removal(as in the cyst) may be necessary.
By management, it is to be on a pain relieving medication to ease your pain especially during your mid-cycle. This will combat exacerbation coming from the mid-cycle symptoms as you watch for size changes.
Usually, the need for a removal becomes pivotal if after 3-4 cycles and the cyst is yet to reduce in size or if at all it is discern to be something far from normal.
You are advise to watch further but due to pain severity you may discus the option of a removal or use of helping hormone-regulating pills to help with its morbidity and as well for a preventive measure.

Odunbless:
Thanks so much
Am 27 years, still single. The pain in my legs has been there for years since when I was still in school but only feel it once in a while at night then and it goes when I rest. This pain became intense in 2016 and since then have been living for the pain.

The doctor said I have pcos because he was saying the ratio of the two of the hormone was 2 ratio 1, I don't know what he was talking about.

I once had pid, I was passing urine. I used almost all known antibiotics, it didn't stop. Only rocephin (not sure of the spelling) injection on the vein for 5 days cured it

I never done abortion nor gotten pregnant, never had s*x before, more reason the gynecologist am seeing now doesn't want to do laparoscopy for me. He said he wouldn't want to tamper with me. I said he should do it but he is hesitant.

The pain runs from lower abdomen, my tights, legs even to my feet and toes. The only time I feel a little bit better is when I'm just waking up in the morning, walking round the house for mins, the pain starts again

I don't vomit, no fever, no fainting. Sometimes I have blur vision, brain fog, fatigue but I think it's caused by either the drugs am using or been anemic(though I take astyfer and multivitamin every day)

The doctor is not ready to tamper what exactly?
If this is all about you and all that is enough to necessitate a Laparoscopy then he should have it done. In fact, what I think should be a problem here should be the pain due to cramping which may be a little done away with since on not having done sex(or if sex is avoided some weeks before it was planned), and then your normal pain discomfort.

Should he has no other complaint other than this and still reluctant to, kindly seek help from another doctor or specialist.

Let this one be a starting point. You may also discus the likelihood of conditions such as Ovarian torsion, pelvic congestion syndrome, PCOS, Cancer, IBS or even Sciatica in association or complicating with this problem of yours.

Good luck.

Azaebere:
For where? I'm doing great. I did myomectomy last two weeks.

That's cool. This newyear is great,just don't mind that thing. But how are you doing now?

Odunbless:
Thanks, think have done like five different ultrasound. Everything seems normal except 1.7cm uterine fibroid which the doctor said it's too small to be removed and can't be the cause of the pain.

The first hormone profile I did last year, the doctor said it was normal. I repeated it some days back after I saw another doctor, he said I have pcos though I don't have the physical features of someone having it

Have taken different drugs from pregabalin, amitripriline, dolometa b, naproxen, diclofenac and many more I don't want to mention. Even did mri of the spine when the pain first started, when they thought I had problem with the spine but the result came out okay

I just want some relieve from this pain

To diagnose endometriosis, ultrasound may not be good enough. The idea of a laparoscopy is quite okay. And I think if this endometriosis is recently diagnosed, you really have to properly managed it to avoid other serious consequences in addition to your pain.
What were the result of the profiling like that led to the doctor implicating a PCOS?

Age range?

When do you start having this problem?
Worsened during menstruation or not?
Worsened during urination or not?
Worsened during using the toilet or not?

History of abortion?
History of STDs/PID?
Given to children?

Does this pain subsides with rest or not?
When does it normally come on it own?

How does it affect your daily output?
What other abdominal complaint associate with it?

Does this pain continues from the pelvis, your thigh and runs to your leg?
What about your arms?

Dizziness?
Lightheadedness?
Increase urge to pass urine?
Vomiting?
Nausea?
Fainting?

Azaebere:
My run away friend. Happy New year.

... see this woman and reverse psychology � Is this another way to say, the rice and chicken has finished? Lol.
...same to you, friend. How are you doing?

Odunbless:
Doctors in the house or if there is anybody going through this, I need help

I have been in pains for almost two years now, a pain from my middle abdomen down to my legs that doesn't go no matter the pain relieving drug used, burning feeling in my ovaries, even all my lower abdomen. Have done several ultrasound that reveals nothing, carried out hormone profile test too but my doctor suspect endometriosis. I was placed on combination 3 for months with no improvement, the pain didn't go and the constant bleeding with clots still persist.

The drug was changed to primolut, it helped with bleeding but not with this killing pain

Please, I want to know if lapaproscopy to determine the presence of endometriosis and excision surgery can be done the same day. Hospital in Nigeria where it can be done and the cost?

Have been living for this pain day in day out, been a burden to alot of people because of no work and illness. I want to know if I still have the chance to be free from this pain. Tired of living this life

You must have really gone through a lot and most time in our troubles we almost wish ease in death than being such an irk to others and ourselves. That's is life, dear. However, nothing seems to make our problems last long than the spirit we put on it. It always get worse with a bad energy in display, it always appear endless with futile complaints and it keeps on persisting with a low spirit.
No matter what your pain now may be never be tired of living life. Be strong! Talk and appear positive always.

You have a good chance of ending or reducing this pain if the cause of it is well diagnosed and treated.
First of all, I need you to know that pain relievers reduces pain. Perhaps, to a degree to which you think they helps in stopping it but not good enough to treat the cause of pain. This is only for management.

What have been the results of the ultrasound done your on pelvis(uterus and adnexa) and abdomen(vermiforme appendix and colon) ?

What are also the result of the various hormone profiling you have covered?

What blood work on labs have you done to relate to your condition?

I think a surgery done to remove the endometriosis on that same day after a Laparoscopic confirmation only depends on the site where it is seen. Another reason for delay is the choice to know your blood works before a surgery can be done.

This procedure can be done in most university teaching hospitals and in several specialist clinic. Cost of surgery largely depends on place of choice and the specialist.

miracletoday:
I v stopped clomid since.these symptoms started after clomid.and it s been four months now

It's okay by me.

miracletoday:
I was placed on clomid by my gynae. but after 3months of usage, my flow became scanty and no of menstral days reduced to 2 days from 5.and cycle length reduced to 22.is there cause for alarm.the doc is not within reach now.

From my point of consideration you may need to put the clomid use to a hold...

Sportwin:
ok sir

how do i go about weight gain at the moment?

If I were you I would this:
1. Attend to my depression and anxiety. I will seek ways to improve in my personality and the best of everything about me. I will make myself worry less of things not really under my control and fix my being in things I can make better at my means. In a nutshell, a sound peace of life and character is worth needed to accumulate body weight.

2. Take time to rest. A good hours of sleep promote a sound mind and body growth. Please don't keep deprived yourself of it.

3. Less of exercise or strenuous activities. This is no excuse you should not indulge in helpful activities whether stressful or not.

4. Food:
a. Eat nicely prepared food that promote a normal appetite.
b. Eat food of your likes.
c. You need not consume too much fatty food especially the ones containing transfat or PUFAs. Just take eat as much as your fill can take.
d. Avoid food bingeing and unnecessary gluttony just to gain weight.

5. Know that weight gaining is gradual process. For the now and so you likely have to :
a. Put off any smoking habit.
b. Sew fitting clothe that matched with your present body size
c. seek a medical help for any health condition that can cause you to ill.
d. No use of hard drugs

jendoslim:
Well, I am not really pressing hard faeces, but whenever I go to toilet, I see blood in the faeces, maybe that explains the injury part.. even afraid of going to toilet. occasionally itching which has stopped now, no boils, no discharge and no surgery done... thanks

Blood-stain faeces or haematochezia coming with anal pain may be a serious problem or could just be a telling omen to something serious.
Causes to having a blood stained faeces coming with anal pain could be;
Infective diverticular disease
inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn etc)
worm infestations
haemorrhoid
gastrointestinal ulcer diseases
and the likes of colonic cancer.

I will advise you seek a doctor's advice now,don't treat on your own or just don't overlook it even if all these symptoms stop. Stool blood analysis may be necessary and due to severity,viewing your colon and small intestine may be appreciated.

kayvine4u:
Its been on for long plus very scanty flow but no other health complaints following it. I have 2 kids already so I'm not looking to have more babies. i suppose i'll take ur word and no worry much about it then. Cheers.

Perhaps, I permit you to worry over this. I will guide you not to bother much about this until a ultrasound has confirm changes to the uterine lining or bodies in association.
You may try to discuss this out with a doctor to see if there is any need to have your reproductive hormones profiled.

Moreover,you are yet to tell how dirty this period of yours is. Just be in the right mind,eat well and be happy. Things happen faster and better this way.

Sportwin:
hello sir

i need drugs that could help boost my self confidence

help reduce my overthinking and aanxiety

i also wanna get fat, gain muscle mass

i eat pretty well buh my face aint that fresh

thanks in advance

Ethics doesn't require prescribing such drugs as you requested through this medium.
It will do you good to have a talk with a medical doctor or clinical psychologist than trying to pass solace in those drugs. They may at first help but in trying to cause a rebound dependence that may exacerbate this problem of yours.
They may be helpful in this regard concerning your loss in personal confidence,your anxiety problem, and psyche-stress that have been responsible for your loss in body weight. Also,I would advise you stay around people as loneliness can reinforce most of these problems.

Be active! indulge in activities you love doing. This will improve the better feeling of yourself.

You may have to stay away from peeps body-shaming you.

Please learn to open up to love ones(wife,girlfriend,boyfriend, siblings etc) about any problem you are passing through right now.

Stop being too attached to this social media.

Study helpful texts and books with tips to ending anxiety problems ( Using "WikiHow" ) can be a great deal.

Avoid comparing yourself with others.

....etc.

kayvine4u:
Hello Doc,
What can be wrong and how do i treat having a dirty brown menstrual flow.

A normal menstruation should cover red-brown with dark fading. However, it still varies with every female in a normal health condition.
The term,"dirty",should be the problem here. Can you explain what you see that makes you think it is not normal?

However, if the above carries with uterine remains that comes with its shedding, then it is nothing to bother much about. This is normal and should be expected to some degree. If this experience is new,I will kindly advise you don't bother about it but if has been on for a long time followed by any health complaint of any sort,kindly reach out to a doctor for help.

abat4real37:
yes

Alright. It is too early still to diagnosed a cause to it even though it might have happened consecutively.I will advice you watch your menstrual cycle abit further to see if it can go back to what it was. During this period,carefully try to improve in yourself by reducing stress(psychological,exercises, studies,job etc) exacerbation. You may also watch out if this has happened due to some diet exposure too or being anorexic.
Don't also forget that some medications can alter menstrual cycle,some individually and others by effect.
Should it remain this way with no secondary complaint, you may have to accept the new cycle count which may not be seen as a case of premature menstruation.

At 24,still this young to put off habits that will reinforce your getting plumpy overdose. Getting your body trimmed is all about patient and working out. That's the drill. No pills,no medications, no surgery and no supplements. Just go out there and kick the bits off and mind your eating habit.

Bankyshinani:
Hello doctor, I need help......
My wife hav bin having difficulties in getting pregnant... D issues started since around June, Wen we went to d hospital n a scan was carried out on her n it shows dat she is having an infection. Pelvis inflammatory disease to be precise... So since den we have bin treating dat infection... So,recently she was feeling some kind of symptoms which we were told dat d symptoms are early signs of pregnancy.. We were very much much relieved dat God have finally answered our prayers.. To our greatest surprise, we ran a pregnancy test dis morning n it came out negative.. We nid help n suggestions on way forward on wat to do..

Just PID?! And I am sure this hasn't led to the occlusion of her uterine tubes. If not a check for patency is necessary.
Profiling of her reproductive hormones may be helpful to confirm any issue with ovulation such as may lead to fertility insufficiency.
She might just be doing well,and here it falls back to you to have an analysis of your semen.
And if all is well, be patient and never bother too much about pregnancy. It will just show up!

Olibboy:
bulging eyes

Exophthalmos?! Have you seen a doctor regarding this problem of yours,what said he then?

sharaff6:
plsease doctor , help me out am having chest pain at the right side of my chest is thier any drug presciption for me. Thanks

You may need pain relievers to ease your pain as side management. If symptoms continue after some moment of subsiding,please see doctor.

Olibboy:
Can chymoral reduce fat in the muscle under the eyes ball (bulging eyes)

I have tried cabrimazole and the TSH is normal.

Can I know the reason you are asking this question of yours?

Bograd83:
Hello here. I don't know what's going on with my period it came 6 days early. It has never happen to me. It came on day 20 instead of day 26 my cycle day. Any advice.

You really may not have any problem,a little shake off is necessary. Changes could be idiopathic or stressors or organic or probably from any medications once used within your ovulation or of period expectation. If it is functional it will certainly go back to your normal rhythm. Fluctuations will always follow slowly progressive menstrual problems, it is only a matter of time. Be at a watch,whatever comes seek help from a physical doctor should it get worse.

joliefille:
Doctors please help me out. I am trying to conceive and my scan shows calcified endometritis, the fertility doctor prescribed antibiotics for it and I took it. About 4 months later I went for foliculometary and the endometritis was still there, I went to another doctor who did a curettage.
Two months after the curettage, I went for a scan and it is still there.

What else can be done? Is it that there is no cure for this condition?

I just started doing a fertility massage, but I don't know if it will work.

Endometritis is merely an inflammation of the uterine lining. Usually, inflammatory condition of the uterine lining is brought about by pelvic microbes. This may require going for a lab work plus some blood work too.
Your not having to catch pregnancy may just be linked to it too.
If all you just mentioned were the number one steps in finding out the solution to this problem of yours then your really on a long thing.

joliefille:
. not endometriosis but endometritis
The two are quite different.

Apology!
I thought I saw Endometriosis...

eolowu1:
gud moni doc, pls wen is it safe to start having sex with my hubby after CS

Enjoy bed after 4-6weeks. It is not a rule of thumb anyway. Just enjoy yourself when you're most comfortable doing it.

Constance20:
Doctor,
I had unprotected sex a day after my period ended. I didn't see my period in November at all. I did series of home pregnancy test, it was negative. Out of curiosity, I also had a pregnancy blood test and the result was also negative..
What shud I do??

I don't think your are pregnant. What are you worried about?

dbaeous:
Good evening doc, my fiancé and I had unprotected sex sometime last month and she took postinor 2 afterwards, she saw her period 6days early after that. Now this month she's been expecting her period since Saturday but instead has been having stomach cramps and backache but no bleeding. Please what could be wrong?

Ps:we had unprotected sex after the last period,say around day 16 of her cycle and she's a 25day cycle. Thank you in anticipation

There is no magic to knowing what could be wrong. These are obvious signs of a female expecting her pull in anytime soon. When she finally have her flow the discomfort may just have to come low. But if this continues, she may need to seek the help of doctor for guidance on what to do.

cutebarbie23:
Egbeda101 is completely right. This dude 2ballz (formerly LuckyG1) is nothing but a scam, he was busted on TTC thread, he is not a doctor. This is someone who wanted to be a MOD on the romance section. Abeg which doctor has time to be a moderator? You all need to be careful of the advice you get from him. Remember, health is priority.


BTW, he ask for private consultation fee of 1000 naira for one hour....

My 2cent.

Acute lie! I still can't fathom how asking someone to run a moderator in his new social network was your headache besides I wasn't asking him to get myself a moderator on his channel,I am only interested in what it takes to stand as one. Mind you,it is also possible to run a moderator and keep to your job too. Those doctors and specialist in Reddit being moderators in health subreddits,are they not human or just human existing in your mind plane?
I haven't been busted and I am happy where I am now whether I see it needful to help here or not.
What I do with my time is none of your business.

Prescribing antibiotics for Endometriosis, quite a pity.
Treatment plan:
Contraceptive measures
Progestin therapy
Aromatase inhibitors


Discus these treatment plans with your gynaecologist.

Katier00:
not so severe
He has been coughing for four months now
Occasionally
Sometimes it gives him shortness of breath
When he talks for too long

Okay. Not so serious as one should bother much about. Kindly get any of those antitussive drugs to ease the coughing reflex.Before that,he discuss with his doctor taking one. If symptoms continue please see doctor.
