Hi..i have irregular menses..the doctor prescribed me with sunolut 5mg (2 tablets per day for 5 days). I also want to get pregnant. Since my menses were delayed by 20 days, i decided to take the sunolut. I took my first tablet this morning and after 2 hours, i got my menses but my menses was not the usual flow. Just a bit of blood. q1: Should i continue taking the sunolut? q2: The doctor gave me clomid (to conceive). The tablet is to be taken from the day 2 of my menses. Should i take the clomid? ## The Primolut contains Norethisterone, which is a type of hormone, so it is normal for it to cause your menstrual cycle to be different than it usually is. Learn more Norethisterone details here. Thus, you should follow your doctors instructions for taking both it and the Clomid. Learn more C...

Hi I Am A 40 Years Lady Living In Los Angeles Ca. After My Last Period, Two Weeks Later, my period Came Early Now Like Almost 3 Week I am in period. Which Medicine do I have to take it, or what shoud I do? ## Hi, Farivita! I'm sorry you're having such an issue, I'm very close to your age, so I do understand how annoying that can be. Since you are 40 now, there's a very good chance that you've entered into perimenopause, which is when your reproductive cycle starts to wind down in preparation for full menopause. Perimenopause can start as early as 35 and may last as long as 10 or 11 years. We usually follow the same pattern as our mother's, so if you can you may want to ask your mom when she went into full menopause, because that means your perimenopause should st...

Hi last month I took medroxprogesterone 40mg for 4 days because I wanted to shorten my period instead of shortdn my period it lasted for 10 days I was off my period for 3 weeks and I got my period on the. 3rd of may and it lasted.for 6 days I was off for 1 day and now I have been spotting for the past 3 days ## Hello, Barbara! How are you? I'm sorry about the problem that you're having. This is a hormone, so it is very likely that is has thrown off your natural balance and it may take a few months for things to get back to normal. Have you consulted your OB Gyn? You should also have things checked out to be safe.

It is normal for there to be some discharge, that's expected and doesn't mean there is anything wrong. You are still absorbing the amount of the progesterone that you are expected to. Are you currently pregnant, or trying to get pregnant?

I ordered nolvadex and recieved white round pill that says biochem on one side and a line on the other. ## Hi John, Tamodex (also known as Nolvadex or Tamoxifen) is actually the brand name that is associated with Biochem. And it looks like they come in either 10 or 20mg dosage forms. I can't say for sure if what you have is real or fake, since you may have ordered over the internet from another source. However, Biochem does appear to be a reputable manufacturer based out of Mumbai, India. Unfortunately I can't seem to locate any more specific details on these pills, but I hope this helps to answer your question.

iam using cu-t since 2013january. I used regestron 5mg to postpon my periods for 3-5days b4 marriage. But now i think regstron tablet is not effective now for me. I got my periods while using tablets. Do cu-t is the problem? ## I had undergone d.n.c.on 26march there was no menses on 26april.so doctor advised to take tab regesteron. I have taken tab regesteron for 3 days.when i expect my period ## @rhkb, Based on your description, it sounds like either medication could be the cause for having your periods. Generally with contraceptives there are two or three different colored pills that you're supposed to take on specific days to alter the timing of your cycle. However in this particular case, you may have to speak with a gynecologist for more information on why it didn't work in...

I have a high genetic risk of breast cancer and undergo diagnostics every year. I was recommended for a preventative mastectomy in a yr but my most recent scan showed a few cysts and a lesion with internal echoes. My Dr put me on tamoxifen as a preventative measure. I had a fna done which showed papillary architecture in the lesion and was recommended for a lumpectomy and mri which I am having the mri today and the surgery will depend on the results of this as to how soon they do it. Since I have started the tamoxifen I had nausea at the start which has stopped and very severe bone pain especially in my legs hips and hands it'. Worse through the night and first thing in the morning and I struggle to walk some mornings over the last few days I have also had a few nose bleeds which I ...

Received a methergine shot after delivery for hemorrhaging, never got much breast milk. Is it because of this? ## Hello, Kate! How are you? Congrats on the baby! And yes, it can cause that in some women, generally it is advised to avoid breast feeding for at least 12 hours after the last dose. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Thank you he is a joy! Did you have the methergine yourself? Most lactation consultants seem to know little about it. I struggled to breastfeed, and I was always just told that the methergine would be out of my system by now. I don't know if it had long term effects on me bc it was introduced before my milk even “came in".

Anyone in the know whether or not progesterone creme can be helpful in men with prostate maladies? ## I climax early and my sperms are not strong/powerful and they are eaching as if they"ve got an acid, so my partner doesn't fill anything. what can I use to stop that? ## @Bob, From what I've been reading, Progesterone is actually vital for maintaining good health in men. But when we get older we don't produce as much, which may be linked to various prostate problems... depending on the underlying cause of it. Diet plays an important role too. Because we don't know the underlying cause of your prostate maladies, I think deciding on whether or not to supplement with Progesterone would be probably better determined by a combination of you and your doctor or urologist...

HI im taking FLUCONAZOLE TABLET ZONCON 200 since last month, and i haven't gotten my period since then. does taking this medication delay in menstrual cycle. ## Hello, Guidya! How are you? It may be the combination of the infection being treated and the medication. However, have you been actively engaging in intercourse? If so, then you should consult your doctor and have a pregnancy test done.

just would like to know what this pill is for ## Hello, Heather! How are you? Does it also a have a box around the M? If so, the tablet contains 300mgs of Acetaminophen and 30mgs of Codeine. This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

I have been taking this TAB for 4-5 years-I understand from my OBGYN that it is a low dosage but my boobs have gotten bigger and I have gained weight- the pluses are it keeps me on an even keel- not anxious and more focused. How can I keep taking it for the positive effects but offset the weight gain and big boobs? ## Hi Alison, Unfortunately weight gain, and enlarged breasts are common side effects of this drug. If I were to suggest anything that would help counteract this, my first thought would be to stay on top of your eating habits. Incorporating a low fat diet would be ideal in my opinion. To put this into perspective, this would ideally be under 20 grams of fat per day. Which also means that you would need to increase either your carb and/or protein intake to help satiate you aft...

Are the prenatal G12 pills suitable for vegetarians? ## Hi Jack, Because it's not listed on the product packaging, it would be difficult to know where the ingredients were sourced from without contacting the manufacturer directly. However, being primarily vegan myself... I would probably try to steer clear of products that don't state their sources on the box. Have you heard of a company called Garden of Life (Vitamin Code)? They also have a Raw Prenatal multivitamin w/ iron, except theirs is verifiably raw, vegetarian, gluten-free & dairy-free. It's about $40 for a two month supply. Definitely worth checking out! I hope this helps!

I have been taking Tamoxifen for 2 months for breast cancer prevention due to atypical cells in a biopsy. I'm 49 and have not gone through menopause. I'm not able to find much information on Tamoxifen for pre menopausal women. For example, will the Tamoxifen stop my periods? I have also been experiencing bloating, gas and a "sour" stomach since starting the medicine but can't find any info as to if this is normal and what may help. I also have experienced weight gain and wondered if there were any suggestions for this. I eat a balanced diet and exercise regularly. ## Hi LL, According to the Tamoxifen Drug Details page, this medication is considered to be a common therapy for breast cancer in both "pre and post" menopausal women. I don't know what it's...
