Question 1

my endometrium lining is 4.2mm at 5 days after period, is this normal?

Accepted Answer

Yes : In postmenopausal women an endometrial thickness less than 5 is normal. At your age of 29 an endometrial thickness is not particularly relevant. It will thicken as you go through the month and then thin out after the menstrual cycle. Unless you are going through ivf treatments or it is being measured for some other specific reason it is not clinically relevant.

Question 2

i have tender breasts two weeks after period. is this normal?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Yes is common and normal for most women.  This is due to fibrocystic changes that occur due to natural hormonal changes that occur.  You can see other posts on fibrocystic breasts.

Question 3

sore tender breasts after period, is this normal?

Accepted Answer

Fibrocystic changes: You could have fibrocystic changes. This is the most common cause of breast pain.  It can be aggravated by caffeine, stress, menstrual cycle and hormonal supplements. If you are over 40, then you should have a mammogram and ultrasound.  Please get evaluated by a breast specialist.

Question 4

took plan b 2 days before period. i spotted the 2 days and then got my period. is this normal? now having slight cramping after period?

Accepted Answer

Very normal: Most plan B users have some irregular spotting or bleeding with it.  I still always recommend checking a pregnancy test in 2 weeks and also consider getting on a regular birth control pill as the daily pill is 97% effective.  Plan B at best is 75% effective.

Question 5

is it normal to spot 7 days after period?

Accepted Answer

: Usually not. It's especially not normal if it hasn't previously happened to you. Any new, unexplained or abnormal vaginal bleeding should be professionally evaluated, even if small in amount ("spotting"). Some causes are serious. At age 18, STIs like chlamydia and gonorrhea are among the common possibilities. See a doctor soon. Good luck.

Question 6

increased appetite after period. is that normal?

Accepted Answer

Can be: Women describe lots of appetite and cravings associated with their period.  Yours is also normal.

Question 7

is it normal to ovulate 3 to 4 days after period?

Accepted Answer

Not typical: For most women, ovulation is mid-cycle (e.g. Day 13/14).  Try one of those otc (over the counter) ovulation kits to test our observation/theory.

Question 8

is it normal to spot brownish four days after period ends?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Some women have brownish discharge after menses. This is usually old blood. This can often be prevoked by intercourse.

Question 9

food cravings before, during and after period, is it normal?

Accepted Answer

Some females: due experience cravings around &amp; at time of menses - especially for junk carbohydrates. Take care.

Question 10

i get brown spottings week after period ends. is this normal?

Accepted Answer

Probably but...: It might be a normal thing.
However, if it comes after having sex, this needs to be checked out soon, and it might indicate sinister cause like cancer of the cervix (lower part of the womb).
Other causes might be infection, pregnancy or use of medications
