Question 1

ive had high and soft cervix during my period last may 6, and 7, until now it is still high and soft, is this possible? or could i be pregnant?

Accepted Answer

Pregnancy Test: Position of cervix in vagina does not tell us anything in regards to whether a woman is pregnant.  Best to do home pregnancy test on first morning urine no sooner than 2 weeks after FIRST unprotected sex.  If neg, repeat in 7-10 days.  If both neg, unlikely you are pregnant.
Hope this was helpful.  Best of luck.  Dr R

Question 2

is the cervix slightly open during period or does it remain closed?

Accepted Answer

Unclear question: There is an opening in the cervix through which menstrual blood exits. The opening may be more prominent during periods.

Question 3

cervix sore during period normal?

Accepted Answer

Possibly: The cervix and vagina may become more sensitive during the menstrual cycle due to hormonal and blood flow changes.

Question 4

i am 47 and years ago i had leep done twice on cervix in the the last 3 months i've noticed old rotten extremely smelling blood during period and off a few times it's so strong others can smell it ?

Accepted Answer

Vaginal odor ?'s: Sudden emergence of vaginal discharge "so strong others can smell it" may be due to a tampon which was not removed, and with sexual intercourse pushed up in the vagina and not retrievable . See your gyn physician for an exam, as if the preceding were true, significant risk of more severe infection is possible.

Question 5

we have been trying to get pregnant for almost six months. i noticed a cervix mucus during period. is it possible to ovulate during menstrual cycle?

Accepted Answer

Not really: It is not possible to ovulate during a normal menstrual cycle, but if the bleeding is due to other causes it could possibly occur around ovulation.

Question 6

mirena (levonorgestrel) 4 2 yrs w/sore c-section area during period w/ mild lower back pain. feels like strained muscle pain. caused by swelling of cervix/uterus?

Accepted Answer

Get an OBGYN consult: It sounds like you need to visit your OB/GYN right away. You may need to have a cervical exam, pap, r/o uterine process such as fibroids or endometriosis. The Mirena (levonorgestrel) should be working better so best that your OB/GYN rules out contraindications and makes sure your symptoms are better controlled. Low back pain may or may not be unrelated. Talk to your GP doctor about it. Good luck.

Question 7

i've read many things that contradict each other & i'd like to know if sex during period(5th-6thday)provides high or limmited possibilities to conceiv?

Accepted Answer

Sex: Sex at any time can cause you to become pregnant if I'm protected I would suggest you should not rely on the days of your period as to when you are protected

Question 8

what causes bbt to stay elevated during period?

Accepted Answer

Hormones: The interplay between different hormones surging at different times in the menstrual cycle affect the temperature setting center in the brain.

Question 9

perfect blood tests except high iron 1st time ever. 28 yrs old, iron supplements only during period. 2 boxes of spinach per week. any other causes?

Accepted Answer

See below: All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Having said that, it would have been helpful to have the actual lab value. In any case, if  you are not iron deficient you can stop taking supplements but do not need to make any other change to your diet.

Question 10

rapid heart rate during period. low hemoglobin, low mch and high rdw. borderline normal mcv. also had mildly low 3.3 potassium 7 weeks ago. i see dr tues, what type of anemia and safest way to treat?

Anemia: Iron deficiency anemia is the most common cause of anemia.  It can be due to heavy periods.  It can be treated with ferrous sulfate 325 3 times daily for 6 months.  If periods are very heavy and period is very heavy endometrial ablation may  be necessary.
