Question 1

what can cause vaginal burning before period + hormone imbalance?

Accepted Answer

Not certain: Not certain it could be a vaginal infection but you will not know unless you are examined by a doctor.
You can also have your hormones checked when you visit your doctor

Question 2

provera (medroxyprogesterone)? does it help you to get pregnant? i'm 27 & have regular period , hormone imbalance and pcos. been ttc 4 8mths. is this the best action to go?

Accepted Answer

Not Provera (medroxyprogesterone): If  you are having regular periods, meaning say every month between 26-32 days, Provera (medroxyprogesterone) will not help you at all (in fact taking it will likely make your regularity worse.) if you have regular cycles i also highly doubt that pcos is a correct diagnosis, since irregular periods are part of the diagnosis.

Question 3

i was 1 day late on my period and than had a few spots and now only have one spot after wiping from peeing, could this be my period or a hormone imbalance? i have been trying to get pregnant with not even a pregnancy scare. i have been pregnant 8 times, 5

Accepted Answer

Pregnancy test: If you miss your period by 4-5 days, do a home pregnancy test. What you described does not sound like a menstrual bleed. Use first morning urine and follow the instructions for the test carefully. If the result is negative, repeat the test in 3-4 days, if you do not get a period by then. Alternatively you could see your doctor for a blood test, which should be positive now if you are pregnant.

Question 4

could this be why i am not pregnant? for almost 2 years my doctor had me taking continuous birth control to stop period and help with hormone imbalance.  i have been off birth control completely for about 4 months now and am still not pregnant.  could tak

Accepted Answer

I : I don't believe that the birth control were the cause of your current situation, but I do think they were "hiding" the underlying problem that you and your doctor were treating in the first place. I think you are correct that the problem then was "hormonal imbalance". The pill is effective at controlling symptoms, but does not correct this imbalance at its root cause.
It is true that fertility varies during the month. Your most fertile days, assuming you have a regular 28-day cycle, are approximately days 10 to 14. (this assumes that you ovulate on about day 14.) when you ovulate, the egg does not last very long; in contrast, sperm can hang around in the vagina for up to a week, which is why the days before the egg is released can lead to pregnancy.
Whether to get further hormonal evaluation at this time depends on several things, including your age, whether you are overweight, and whether your cycles are regular. If your body is at a healthy weight, and another hormonal imbalance is present, i recommend treatment with bioidentical hormone therapy, which even in low doses can enhance fertility.

Question 5

everytime i have my period, i am always bound to have bumpy pimples around my face. is it due to hormonal imbalance? please advice me some vitamins to control it.

Accepted Answer

Birth control pills: Hormonal fluctuations occur every month. Vitamins do not help prevent acne; however certain birth control pills do.  It is possible you have some hormonal inbalance, but most atients normally flare with their menses.

Question 6

i havd not have my period in over a year. all i get is spotting every few months. i also have a hormone imbalance. what can i do to regulate my period?

Accepted Answer

Periods: Regrettably you can't regulate your periods based on what you wrote. You need to see a Gynecologist as soon as possible.

Question 7

i have had my period for about a month, with cramping and clots, i think i might have a hormone imbalance?

Accepted Answer

Hormone imbalance: Any time you think you have hormone imbalance you should make an appointment to see a gynecologist. Better to be informed that your hormones are OK and even better to detect correctable hormone issues before things get worse.

Question 8

i started my period yesterday but my breasts are still sore. usually as soon as my period starts they stop being sore. do i have a hormone imbalance?

Accepted Answer

No: Sometimes it takes a few days for all of the estrogen induced fluid to leave the breasts.

Question 9

the past two days my veins in both of my breasts have seemed way, way darker than usual. also have some pain around my left nipple as well. i struggle with hormone imbalancecould this be a cause? i am also on my period right now?

Accepted Answer

: I feel that these symptoms are related to hormones and your menstrual period. If they don't completely resolve after your period is over, see your MD or gynecologist for evaluation and advice.

Question 10

can a woman have a hormone imbalance even if she has regular periods?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely: The hormones estrogen and progesterone control the menstrual cycle. Too much estrogen in relation to the progesterone can allow for a regular cycle but also contribute to other symptoms. Increased PMS, moodiness, sleep disturbance, heavier periods, breast tenderness, and uterine fibroids are a few symptoms of this imbalance. Other hormones may contribute depending on symptoms experienced.
