What causes excessive bleeding during menstruation?

Excessive menstrual bleeding may occur due to hormonal imbalance, uterine fibroids or polyps, thyroid disorders, endometriosis, or problems with blood clotting. It may also happen due to pelvic infections or recent changes in contraceptive methods. It is best to see your doctor for a thorough medical assessment, including blood tests and pelvic imaging, to identify the exact cause and plan appropriate treatment.

I experience prolonged bleeding and feel weak during menstruation. Can I take Dydrosure 10 Tablet to manage my condition?

Prolonged menstrual bleeding and weakness may indicate anaemia or an underlying hormonal imbalance. Dydrosure 10 Tablet (Dydrogesterone) is a synthetic progesterone that can help regulate menstrual cycles and reduce excessive bleeding in some cases. However, its suitability depends on the underlying cause of your bleeding. You should consult a gynaecologist for a proper evaluation before taking this medication.

I am two months pregnant and experiencing stomach pain. Can you please advise me on this?

Mild abdominal pain can be normal in early pregnancy due to stretching of the uterus, gas, or constipation. However, severe, persistent, one-sided, or cramping pain may indicate complications such as a miscarriage, a urinary tract infection, or an ectopic pregnancy (where the foetus grows outside the womb). It is important to consult your obstetrician promptly for proper evaluation. Avoid taking any medication without your doctor?s guidance.

I have had mild bleeding without menstruation for a week, along with mild pain. A gynaecologist said it is due to weakness. What could be the reason, and what should I do?

Mild bleeding between periods may occur due to hormonal imbalance, stress, infections, or anaemia. Since it has lasted for a week and is accompanied by pain, you should consult a gynaecologist for a pelvic examination, an ultrasound, and blood tests to identify the underlying cause. Avoid self-medication, get adequate rest, and follow your doctor?s recommendations for appropriate treatment.

I have been diagnosed with cystitis and a simple cyst in my right ovary for the past two years. What should I do about this ongoing issue?

Persistent cystitis should be reassessed by your doctor to rule out any ongoing infection, bladder inflammation, or other underlying causes. Simple ovarian cysts are usually harmless, but long-standing or symptomatic cysts may require repeat scans to monitor their size. It is advisable to see your doctor for a complete gynaecological and urinary assessment to determine whether you need treatment, lifestyle changes, or regular monitoring to manage both conditions safely.

I have a 5.6 mm intramural uterine fibroid. What further management do you suggest?

A uterine fibroid of 5.6 mm is very small and usually does not require any active treatment unless it causes symptoms such as heavy bleeding, pelvic pain, or discomfort. Regular ultrasound monitoring is generally advised to check for any increase in size. If you develop symptoms or the fibroid grows, consult your gynaecologist for further assessment and treatment.
