Re: Menstrual irregularity

most of the time irregular periods leads to PCO's, talk to ur gyn abt this. some of ur symptoms like worry, weight gain & irregualr periods indicate u have PCO's. Do a full checkup, including ultrasound.

Dear Vivbass,

Did u talk to ur gyn abt this??? How old are U??? If ure married & have no kids then better to go for full chk-up, most of the time irregular periods leads to PCO's. I'm telling u from my experience, when first time i went to gyn & she told me abt pco's i didn't take it seriously, but now i realized how big mistake i made, becoz of pcos i had 2 miscarriages.

Dear Vivbass,

Did u ever heard about the treatment calledGYNECARE THERMACHOICE ???
I haven't any personal experience though I heard about it from my frns....

GYNECARE THERMACHOICE is a minimally invasive, non-hormonal treatment developed to reduce excessive menstrual bleeding in pre-menopausal women who are having heavy periods due to benign (non-cancerous) causes...

It is an 8-minute treatment that is minimally-invasive and requires no hospital stay. It uses heat to treat the endometrium the lining of the uterus, can be performed under local anesthesia and requires no incision. GYNECARE THERMACHOICE may be performed in your gynecologist's office, eliminating the need to go to the hospital. Unlike a hysterectomy, GYNECARE THERMACHOICE allows you to preserve your uterus. Recovery is fast - most women return to their normal activities the next day.

Re: Help Me Pls

Dear Vivbass,

From my personal experience I too had a heavy periods before that I some times had the periods once a year or for every 4 or 5 months like that... I too felt very tired n uncomfortible....

I managed those heavy days by using super tampoon along with two long overnight pads (Always ultra thin to avoid the bulk) with wings ( they tend too be longer). Wings take care of any oops on the sides of the period panties. I would over lap the pads so it was long in the front and black. Then no leak throughs...

At night also same thing but I just sleep on some plastic lined bed sheets so I wudn't worry about the mattresses n I cud some sleep...

I'm not sure if that is wat u r looking for.. donnow too many tricks...
May be use more tampoons for more comfortible ....

Consider these tips for successful self-care of heavy periods:

Your doctor may recommend rest if bleeding is excessive and disruptive to your normal schedule or lifestyle.

Keep a record. Record the number of pads and tampons you use so that your doctor can determine the amount of bleeding. Change tampons regularly, at least every four to six hours.

Avoid aspirin. Because aspirin may promote bleeding, avoid it. Ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, others) often is more effective than aspirin in relieving menstrual discomforts.

Coping skills

For some women, menorrhagia is manageable. Follow these tips:

Work closely with your doctor. Stay informed of all aspects of your condition, including controllable causes and new treatment options. Have your blood count and iron level measured at least once a year.
Consider iron supplements. With your doctor's approval, consider taking an iron supplement to prevent a lack of iron in your blood (iron deficiency anemia).

Take good care of yourself. Eat a healthy diet, get enough rest and exercise, and keep your stress under check.

Seek the support of family and friends. This can help lessen the effects of the condition and make dealing with difficult times more bearable.

 

Re: Help Me Pls

Dear Vivbass,

if ure having first time period since D&C then it is fine, even it's better to have heavy periods, it happened to me too. I had to change my pads 3-4 times in a day. So don't worry.

For strength take Iron tablets+multi vitamins. Iron is must for couple of mths.
