Why is my menstrual cycle heavy with blood clots?

My menstrual cycle was absent for six months due to avoiding sugar and carbohydrates. When it returned, it lasted for 11 days and was heavy with blood clots, making me feel like I lost a lot of blood. What should I do?

It’s great that your cycle has returned; however, heavy bleeding with clots can sometimes indicate underlying issues, such as hormonal imbalances or changes in the uterine lining. Factors like diet can influence cycles, but it's essential to ensure your body is receiving adequate nutrition. I recommend you maintain a balanced diet and monitor your symptoms. If heavy bleeding persists or if you have concerning symptoms like feeling faint or excessively fatigued, please consult a gynecologist. They can provide tailored advice and ensure your health is on track.

Hi I'm FAVOUR, I missed my period for 2 months and I wasn't pregnant. I went for test and they said I have infection ( staphylococcus erus and candida albican), after which I was given 3 days injections of antibiotics. A week after the injection and treatment, I saw my period that lasted for 5 days but it wasn't flowing as usual. A week after seeing the period, I started seeing brown discharge coming out of my vagina and now it's not longer brown discharge that's coming out, it's blood, a heavy flow of blood is pouring out of my body 24/7, and it's been flowing like this for close to 2 weeks now, please what can I do?

The infection that you had might be the reason that your menstruation has changed and thus uneven bleeding has happened. Infections can sometimes cause heavy bleeding or irregular periods. The brown discharge you saw may have been old blood mingled with the vaginal discharge. Should the heavy bleeding continue, contacting a healthcare provider is vital to get a more thorough evaluation and care.

Why do my opening vagina itch with white discharge

Female | 23

You might have a yeast infection. These are a type of infection that can be found in the vagina which begin to get itchy after a while and might emit white discharge. In some women, an imbalance of yeast can lead to an overgrowth where the vagina becomes too acidic. This is what happens when your vagina has too much yeast in it. You can purchase over-the-counter antifungal creams to help respond to yeast infections.

Hello what does it mean when the pregnancy test is one line lighter than the other?

Female | 26

It could indicate a low level of pregnancy hormone. It is recommended to visit an Obstetrician/Gynecologist for further evaluation and clarification.

i am 20 years old and since day before yesterday i am feelinh itchy down there with a certain type of bad odour which is unusual to me. all this things happened after i washed it with soap. the smell has decreased but itchiness is making me uncomfortable.

Female | 20

It's common to experience discomfort and unusual symptoms after changing your personal hygiene routine. Itching and an unusual smell can result from irritation or an imbalance in the natural flora of the area, often exacerbated by soaps or products that disrupt pH levels. To alleviate irritation, consider rinsing with water and avoiding further soap use in that area. Wearing breathable cotton underwear can also help. If symptoms persist or worsen, I highly recommend consulting a healthcare professional. They can provide a thorough evaluation and appropriate treatment to ensure your comfort and wellbeing.
