Stormyweather:
Good morning all, this is somewhat urgent. I have a friend who has some medical issues. Her menstruation is usually very painful, takes about 5 days. She has clot whitish discharge which she says flows very well. It's thick. Her lower abdomen hurts and she was recently treated for PID. After taking some drugs which name I can't lay my hands on currently, the pain during mensuration reduced but it returned again. There was a time she was rushed to the hospital because of frequent stomach ache. That was when she was treated for PID and STI. She is experiencing lower abdominal pain when she pees and sex is now painful. Please who can help out here? It's urgent please. She was told to do culture test but doctors are currently on strike. What's the way forward please? Any professional would do. Thanks in advance.

She need not have to see a medical doctor to have a culture done on her urine and vaginal discharges. Vaginal and urethral swabs are carefully done in most diagnostic health centres she should make an appointment to have one visited.

Dysuria( discomfort during urination) and dyspareunia(coital discomfort) are associative symptoms of lower urinary tract infection/lower reproductive infection with both sides of the cervix involved.

She is advice to stick to sensitivity as written on the swab result sheet. No se.x during this period and that her se.x partner should have her/himself screened.

Stormyweather:
thank you so much. In the meantime what do you propose for partial comfort? Please do you have an idea how much she will do tge test in other test centres? Where she is, is very underdeveloped.

LuckyG1:

For the now she should adopt the following measures to ease her discomfort:

1) Avoidance of intromission (of the vagina) of any kind.
2) Sitz bathing using warm water-izal mixture or just warm water.
3)Avoidance of wearing tight fitted short panties. The use of light pants to allow ventilation is advised.
4) Avoid giving in to itching pull.

Stormyweather:
she said there are no itches. Any painkiller you can recommend for the period pain

LuckyG1:


Okay. She may get to use any of those [/b]NSAIDs OTC of acetaminophen[b] derivative,better still discuss her cramping with a local drug dispenser with an initiative to both receive the drug and prescription. Provided all things being normal.

2: my breast always feels heavier like 5days prior to the blood showing please is this normal? Thanks

LuckyG1:


My friend you have done no well in the misuse of levonorgestrel derivative drugs. Individually,symptoms are lasting and could provoke other sleepy complication(s). Active sexual females using these drugs often for granted overlook some loop sided functions associating with use. And when the root function is achieved it only ends in the wake of other subclinical problems.


Levonorgestrel derivative drugs are mainly taken to cause cess to ovulation. When ovulation is hindered, it will lead to a failure of a body called corpus luteum. This could have sustained the cycle a bit longer before menstruation but on the use of this drug it shortened it leaving the yet-to-mature uterine lining prone to shedding out quite early.Most females may experience it as an ordinarily spotting which might appear long enough as a fluctuations in cyclic periods. In other words if this medication is used during an interval closer to the beginning of a new cycle then the bleeding may not come as appealing as necessary.

So,you are advised to watch some days more. Perhaps it could be cyclical. You may tell us if you have had this kind of bleeding before. Wait a cycle more, reach out to us if you find it disturbing and if this present flow last beyond 7days,write us.

Hello doctors in the house......

Please I would like to know what causes a fetus heart to stop beating!

I was pregnant and started my ANC at 9wks and had my first scan, everything was fine then....

@12wks I decided to go for scan again on my own to check how my baby was doing, only to find out that the heartbeat had stopped 2wks before then (that's at 10wks)

Was told to go for second opinion even third opinion which all came back same (missed abortion). My dr adviced me to come in for evacuation which was done last week Thursday!

My questions now is....

1. What could have caused the baby to stop developing without any bleeding or spotting?
2. Please when is my period likely to start after the evacuation?
3. When is the right time to resume sex after the evacuation?


Please Note.....
I'm not in any kind of pains and I'm not bleeding either since 3days ago!


Thanks in anticipation!

Morning Doctor,
I will like to know what could make my mestration to be coming for 2days while it used to be for 4days before but for the past 2months(the last one and the one I just finished yesterday)it has been 2days.I have used home test(accurate) but it shows one stripe.

LuckyG1:


Good morning. We pray you bear with the loss of your pregnancy.
I can't help but ask why fetal heartbeat cessation comes mostly between 9-12weeks of gestation.
The following are assumed causes/risk factors:

1) Idiopathic-causes are yet to be identified.

2) immunological- heartbeat cessation might have resulted from the interplay of in-built system immunity that could have lead to increase fetal stress factors.

3)placental circulation- a fail on the part of blood circulation between the growing fetus and pregnant subject may stand as a risk to causing a cess beating of the heart. Infact most placental conditions leads to pregnancy loss as a result of intruding into the normal growing functioning heart. This initiates as;
i) Falling off of the placenta body.
ii) placenta bleeding( minute or largely macroscopic)
iii) clotting clogs of placental vessels.
iv) malformations of the placental body
v) wrongly situated placental body.
v) umbilical torsion.

4) Abnormal growing of the heart organ/ malformation.

5) lineage predisposition.

6)infections and other limiting factors.



Soon enough has the body is preparing to cause an abortion,simultaneously it is in-preparation to have a cyclic period kick start. It is not expected to be too soon.
Atleast within a 2-week droop of hCG and prolactin,one should expect changes that comes with having an ovulation for the fact that the pregnancy hasn't aged into term.

With no discomforts at hindsight neither any psychological trauma still in check, carry on! Enjoy!
