Ok, my wife is pregnant. She noticed some blood after wiping her vagina and of course got scared. She went to her ob/gyn and he said the baby was fine and that it seemed to be coming from her urethra. He sent her to a urologist and there they claimed her urethra has a tear in it (?).
This sounds kind of strange to me (especially since we have not had even moderately rough sex). (BTW, we are in Korea, she is Korean, and I have known Korean doctors to give some pretty cockamaimy reasons for symptoms I, and other foreigners I know have had.) Anyway, she has had moderate bleeding throughout the day for a couple of days now, but she claims there is not really any pain, only she has a slight sensation where she thinks there's a tear.
The doctor did a urinalysis and says she doesn't have any infection. I'm just wondering if anyone can make heads or tails of this. Ever experienced/heard of such a thing?

I am now on day 3 of my period and still all that appears is brown pinkish spotting. I was recently told I had a UTI infection and I was wondering if it was to do with that or something else. I've never missed a period and it felt as if it was going to come with the same moodiness and tearful spells. I'm not sure what to do!

I'm 20 have had my period for 8-10 years now and my period has always been long and heavy but right now its ridiculous. my period started 2 weeks ago was extremely heavy last week end (over 3 oz in 3 hours in the evening) then lightened up this week then got really heavy again tonight (2 oz in under a 1/2 hour) (I know the oz because i use a mestrual cup now instead of tampons)

but before i would sometimes go through super plus tampons in under 15 minutes for a few hours its really iritateing

i havent had a docters visit in 2-3 years and do not have my medical recors i'm thinking about going to the doctors but don't know what type of info they would want me to have or what info would be good for me to have so i can get a clear diagnosis

I think I do anyway. It's defiantley not period, and it's only obvious when I wipe after going to the loo as the white loo roll turns a pinky colour. I'm not 100 percent certain it's blood but the residue in the toilet is yellow. Sorry I know it's a minging question but just wondering if anyone else had experieinced this

I have been having horrible heartburn and acid reflux since I've been taking birth control. It is making me feel so sick and nauseated to the point I took a pregnancy test this morning to be sure it wasn't morning sickness. The test turned out negative.

I believe the heartburn is also making it difficult for me to breathe sometimes. Has anyone else ever had this problem? Also, is this common with all birth control? If it is, I just can't take this stuff anymore. I am currently taking Loestrin, but after I finish this pack, the doctor is going to start me on Ortho Tricyclin (sp?). I had called to let her know I've been having breathing problems after taking it (I had asthma as a child and thought it was aggravating it). She wants me to try this one for a month to see if my breathing improves, but if it's the heartburn, I don't know what I'll do.

Last year, I had two sizeable and painful ovarian cysts. While being examined for the first one, I discovered that I only had one ovary and one fallopian tube. The pain from the first persisted for nearly a month. Almost immediately after the pain had finally ceased, the second cyst formed. The pain from that lasted over a month as well. The OBGYN wrote me a prescription for Percocet and told me to call her if the pain got worse (not, if the pain persisted, only if it got worse).

It's been 9 months since my last cyst. I'm now starting to get that painful feeling again and urinating slightly more than normal. Those are the only symptoms.

What's interesting is right before I had my first cyst, I had just started taking Seasonale. I've been unhappy with the effects it's had on my body (moodiness, extended bleeding during the periods to the point that I had to take iron supplements). I"m wondering if the Seasonale indirectly causes the cysts?

Hope you enjoy this story...Pls star if you like it. Thx.

A man was sick and tired of going to work every day while his wife stayed home. He wanted her to see what he went through so he prayed: "Dear Lord: I go to work every day and put in 8 hours while my wife merely stays at home. I want her to know what I go through, so please allow her body to switch with mine for a day. Amen.
God, in his infinite wisdom, granted the man's wish.

The next morning, sure enough, the man awoke as a woman. He arose, cooked breakfast for his mate, awakened the kids, set out their school clothes, fed them breakfast, packed their lunches, drove them to school, came home and picked up the dry cleaning, took it to the cleaners and stopped at the bank to make a deposit, went grocery shopping, then drove home to put away the groceries, paid the bills and balanced the cheque book. He cleaned the cat's litter box and bathed the dog.

Then it was already 1 P.M. and he hurried to make the beds, do the laundry, vacuum, dust, and sweep and mop the kitchen floor. Ran to the school to pick up the kids and got into an argument with them on the way home. Set out milk and cookies and got the kids organized to do their homework, then set up the ironing board and watched TV while he did the ironing. At 4:30 he began peeling potatoes and washing vegetables for salad, breaded the pork chops and snapped fresh beans for supper.

After supper, he cleaned the kitchen, ran the dishwasher, folded laundry, bathed the kids, and put them to bed. At 9 P.M. he was exhausted and, though his daily chores weren't finished, he went to bed where he was expected to make love, which he managed to get through without complaint.

The next morning, he awoke and immediately knelt by the bed and said: "Lord, I don't know what I was thinking. I was so wrong to envy my wife's being able to stay home all day. Please, oh please, let us trade back."

The Lord, in his infinite wisdom, replied: "My son, I feel you have learned your lesson and I will be happy to change things back to the way they were. You'll just have to wait nine months, though. You got pregnant last night."

My wife was having about a week of sadness between her periods and heavy bleeding during her cycle. She was told to take antidepressants by one Dr. We feel that would just mask symptoms and not get to the root of the problem. Another Dr. gave her an Rx for Prometrium, a progesterone like hormone. Have you or anyone you know taken this drug? What were the results? Any advice?

I had an abnormal pap around this time last year and I had to undergo two surgeries to fix what they said were pre-cancerous cells. Then a month after my last surgery I had a pap smear done and It came back abnormal. I told the doctor that it probably came back abnormal because i recently had a surgery and he said it shouldnt have. Has anyone went through this before? is it possible i might have to have a third surgery? i talked to the physician that did the surgery and he wont do a pap on me until next year. thanks for any advice.

Why is it that a regular physician, everyday doctor, can perform annual exams on women? What makes a ob/gyn different, and why would you choose to see one instead? Thanks!

I'm at a nice point in my life. I'm engaged to a wonderful man, I'm out on my own, and about to head into college. However, I'm looking into birth control, and have chosen a brand I'd like to use.

However, even back when I was with my family, I never had a 'doctor'. We were healthy and I don't even REMEMBER the last time I evn saw a doctor. Birth control pills are pescription only, I know this, but everyone says 'go to your doctor'.

There is a hospital only a few miles away, but I'm afraid of walking in and asking if someone could give me my first pescription for birth control pills, and I don't think that's where I go, anyway. At least...I don't think so.

I don't have any insurance, so I'm also afraid of cost. So...how does a doctorless girl get a perscription for birth control pills?
