Answers: I think I know what you are chitchat about and I own had them also. Usually I procure them if I have skipped a length or two by running pill packets together. I put it down to a clot of extent blood or the ueterus walls not breaking down properly on the way out. I don't have a sneaking suspicion that it is anything to worry roughly speaking. Once I had a huge one which be scary and I anxious myself into thinking it was a miscarrage, but I muse they are fairly everyday. Call you Dr in the morning if you are still worried but I hope this make you sleep better!
If it's brown it could be a dried clot, which you shouldn't have any "dried" blood coming out. That could be a sign of endometriosis.

If can be yeast -- it can be the discharge from ovulation. But best to see the doctor since it's related to the pills and they can be problematic.

  • Magnesium OK - pmt nouns. does anyone know more in the region of this product and any prearranged side affects?

    I suffer from depression and insomnia about a week and a partly before my time of year is due and have be advised by a friend that 'magnesium OK' will relieve. Does anyone know anything about this or any other products that might backing? thanks.


    Answers: i'd support st. john's wort, and also the natural depression and stress busting methods including herbal teas, yoga and exercise

    magnesium ok hasn't have much positive feedback in common as a treatment, and is a wildcard for doctors, as it sometimes helps near few side effects as compared to prozac or st. johns wort.
    I haven't found taking magnesium supplements to help that much.

    I filch 50mg of 5htp each dark and 50mg each morning as soon as the pmt starts. 5htp help the depression and insomnia too.

    High doses of Calcium with vitamin D enjoy been found to give a hand too.

    I've also cut caffeine out completely.
    A deficiency contained by magnesium can affect you in frequent ways, so this product may help. I wrote a nonspecific article about magnesium that may aid with some info. check it out at:

  • I entail warning....im so worried!?

    I had term on 09/24 which is usually 30-37days. I had sex on 10/9 next to condom. I was scard and took the plan b pill on the 10th, because i hear i could be fertile. what are the chances of me man pregnant. help....I havent gotten my time from the morning after pill yet. My extent is not due until the last week of october.


    Answers: First of adjectives, take a slow, wide breath. Sounds like you are starting to freak a moment or two. If you want some serious peace of mind and don't want to wait till the second week of October for your next length, go to Wallyworld or CVS and buy a home pregnancy interview. They are accurate almost immediately immediately. And it's been at least possible 7 days since you had sex-long plenty for your hormone levels to rise satisfactory to detect in a HPT. Your have taken the morning after pill should have prevented any implantation of a fertile egg. Between your using a condom and the pill, I'd judge your chances of self pregnant are slim to none. Since I'm not an OB/GYN I can't tell you for 100% correct but advice is same-spend $8-$12 on a HPT and capture some peace of mind. I'm glad to hear you are using a condom. No birthcontrol pill can prevent STD's. As a woman, it's your responsibility to make right, healthy, informed decision regarding your reproductive robustness and your sex life. You're head in the right direction using condoms. As the mother of four daughters I can recognize your anxiety. I think knowhow is your best friend right now so if you can afford the tryout, get it, thieve it and then you can relax. I longing you the very best. Take support.

  • Urinary tract infection?

    i am experiencing a very prickly feeling when i urinate, it is so prickly that i came to unease urinating, i was once diagnosed near UTI, anybody could tell me some anitbiotics for these please, i am a feamle


    Answers: If you've have a UTI before, and this feel similar, it's probably a UTI.

    You should get some antibiotics. Go see a doctor, or call for a nurse-line (if that's available to you) to get meds you have need of. Sulfanomides are usually first line antibiotics for UTI's.

    In the meantime, drink plenty of hose down, to help dilute the microbes, and reduce irritation slightly. You can gain some over-the-counter medication (AZO or Uristat) that will help beside the painful and irritating symptoms. These medication are strictly relievers of pain surrounded by the bladder. They do not kill germs or stop bacterial growth (as someone mentioned). You could take these drugs indefinitely and not hold symptoms, but the bacteria will still be multiplying approaching crazy. They're for a temporary nouns of symptoms, only - until the antibiotics that you seize from your doctor begin to work.

    Also, drinking blueberry liquid and/or cranberry juice will aid to rinse some of the bacteria out of the bladder. Both blueberries and cranberries enjoy a surfactant (it's a tannin, not an antioxidant, as someone else mentioned) that gets to the bladder. A surfactant is approaching soap, and it will help to loosen the bond between the microbes and the bladder wall, and you can flush some (but not all) of the bacteria out - helping to relieve the symptoms.
    Make sure you drink alot of cranberry liquid. The antioxidants help a bunch.

    There are a few different antibiotics etc. For example Ural, which is a powder that is to say added to water and drunk. You may not hold a UTI, maybe a moment ago thrush, if so there is a capacity of treatments available.
    I had them until that time, too. I'm sorry but I can't remember the name of the antibiotic. It could be trimethoprim-sulfamethoxamole? BUT you can grasp Uristat over the counter. Uristat soothes the pain when urinating and stops microbes growth but your urine will be discolored (dark orange usually) and it stains your clothes and toilet bowl. So, wear a pantyliner when using it and use chorlox after every flush to hang on to your toilet clean.
    It doesn't cure your UTI but you'll be more comfortable and it won't affect your urine culture. But do see a doctor because UTI can be perilous when untreated. It can cause kidney tissue reduce to rubble which can cause kidney dud in some extreme cases.
    Along near what everyone else said you could allso get cranberry pills they are surrounded by the vitamin area at the drug store and whip about 3 of them they are a cronberry concetrate and are innate...UTIs really suck...IF you can try and pee right after you have sex if you deliberate that may be the reason why you get the UTI i was getting them for years and not a soul told me to pee after sex but as soon as i started doing that right after it worked and havnt really gotten any since GOOD LUCK!!

  • Women beside PCOS, I want to hear from you!?

Any and adjectives input is welcome, but please no negative or thumbs down. This is a sensitive subject for many women and I don't want them put down. Men, get the impression free to tell me give or take a few spouses and family beside this condition. Thank you all.


    Answers: I enjoy PCOS, and discovered thru much research that mine was cause by a medication I took as a child. I started having problems beside acne as a kid but the weight gain didn't go off til my 20s. I also started to deal next to stretch marks. PCOS does not run contained by my family but I've met other women that hold had that crop up to them. I still have some issues near my weight and I construe one of the reasons I do is because I strongly believe I hold a thyroid problem.

    I have no children but I own friends who have PCOS that have children but both needed help to do it.

    I enjoy a link to a site that may be of even more give support to to you for the info you seek. Please check out: http://www.pcosupport.org
    I own PCOS. I have 2 daughters. I have 8 miscarrages. The only times I get pregnant and stayed that way and give birth was after I have a DNC. I never waited the 6 weeks close to the Dr. told me. They said that this is probably the reason I stayed pregnant.

    I be told I had a brain tumor, 2 years after I breast feed my youngest I was still leak enough milk to nurture her. I finally went to a endocrinologist and he said "did you clean up your neck" I said " actually I scrub it with a scrub wipe for dishes" he laughed and said you will never obtain that black off your d??colletage. Then he said...Let me quess, it's also on your armpits, inner thighs and look at your eyelids. Yes, I look like I other have eyeshadow on. He after told me I had 2 weeks to seize everything done as I was going to enjoy a total hysterectomy (ovaries, uterus, tubes and cervix).
    mine is definitely genetic. my sister have pcos and I suspect that my paternal grandmother have it too, as well as some cousins on my dad's side.

    symptoms: irregular period, hirituism, and both my sister and i are slim.

    i'm 33 and am TTC for one year. only on metformin. may be tallying clomid. i ovulate about every other month.

    i would guess near are 3 causes of pcos:
    1) insulin resistance
    2) exposure to elevated levels of testosterone since puberty
    3) genetic predisposition to having high-ranking testosterone levels

    i assume the cause can be genetic or environmental. however, adjectives the women i knwo with pcos enjoy other family member with it which make me lean strongly towards a genetic link.
    Ok, I enjoy PCOS, I was diagnosed at 14 or 15 (I am in a minute 19). I had cysts adjectives the time, one to the point that it was the size of a grapefruit. I hold the other symptoms too of acne (face and back), the 'happy trail', cysts (obviously), and weight issues.

    Cysts are unpromising, and I always enjoy them, even when on the pill to help next to the symptoms. Acne, I still have some sometimes, but it is not nearly as discouraging as it was formerly I went on the pill. I enjoy a 'happy trail', which I wish I could go and get rid of, but I do have one,

    The freight issue all depends. I be placed on the pill to try to help near the symptoms of PCOS, so while on the pill I lost weight, but when I go off of it I gain 5 lbs. (which didn't hurt being that I lost 10 when I started taking it). I am rather small, I am not overweight by any means, so I wouldn't read aloud that is a symptom, but I own a hard time maintain a weight, I other seem to be losing (not sure if to be exact a symptom or not).

    My mother has PCOS as very well. She had 3 kids. The first beside no fertility drugs, the second with firtility drugs, and the third short.

    I have be studying as well almost PCOS, so I'm glad to see that others are as well. I hope this help.
