Question 1

can menstruation trigger shingles?

Accepted Answer

Triggers: Menstruation itself is not known to be a single contributor to the triggering of shingles.

Question 2

i had shingles last month and i don't feel an onset of my menstrual cycle trying to start. can shingles cause me to miss a period?

Accepted Answer

No: Shingles itself won't impact the onset of a period; however stress may be a common thread.  Stress is known to trigger a shingles outbreak and stress can delay a cycle starting.

Question 3

how to skip one month of menstruation? is it possible?

Accepted Answer

With contraception: A woman can be decycled if she is on some type of hormonal contraception- including pills, patch or the ring.  The cycle is skipped if the woman uses the med continuously& skips the non active hormone time. If the patch or the ring is used- then you wouldn't take the week break that you normally would to see your cycle. So you would immediately replace the ring & place another patch. Discuss w dr.

Question 4

is it normal to skip 1 or 2 months of menstruation some times ?

Accepted Answer

Amenorrhea: Yes. Of course. Especially in your teens. There are probably several reasons foremost among them are: 1. Some months teens do not ovulate (this is not predictable) 2. Some teens do not eat enough calories to support regular menstruation 3. Some teens exercise so strenuously as to not have enough energy for menstruation 4. Some teens diet so strictly  that they do not ovulate at times.

Question 5

if i miss some days on my birth control will that make my menstruation cycle even more irregular?  like will it come later than its suppose to?

Accepted Answer

Could be either: Missing doses of hormones which have been very carefully thought out to give you the best protection and least side effects can certainly throw off your period. It could come early, it could be late and you could be pregnant. If late, I suggest you do at least one pregnancy test to make sure this is not the cause. Then find an app or alarm on your cell phone that can remind you to take your pill.

Question 6

my last menses was on 16/7. my expected period is on 13/8. but till today i don't hv any pms. can i tk a test nw or wait till i miss my period?

Accepted Answer

Best to wait: There is no real benefit to testing early, and some harm involved. Early testing has a higher false negative rate, which just means the test has to be done again anyhow. Recommend not testing until after a period is missed.

Question 7

we are trying for a baby. my menses came 6 days late and 2-3 days short as normal days are 7. i tested once on 1st miss period resulted (n). pregnent?

Accepted Answer

Not if negative : Home pregnancy tests are very accurate. They are the same tests used in a doctors office. They can detect a pregnancy 7-10 days after conception.   If you doubt the result you can repeat it in 1-2 days. If you were pregnant the hormone level would rise enough for detection.

Question 8

i have very irregular menses cycle. sometime may skip few month. i am 23 this year. wat should i do?

Accepted Answer

The pill: Going on the birth control pill can normalize your menstrual period.  Talk to your doctor about pros and cons.

Question 9

hi

i need some help,

i have been menstruating for more than 24 days , i usually have irregular periods but it would never be as long as 24 days its usually 3/4 days or skip a month

please help ?

Accepted Answer

One-time symptom?: A doctor can check to see if there is a medical issue, if a woman has mild menstrual-related symptoms. Many women have some variation of mucus discharge, of periods, or a missed period on occasion. Some women feel normal after a few days, but others have bothersome symptoms and call up their doctors. That said, a 24-day period is too long, so one's doctor will be happy to discuss it and help.

Question 10

Accepted Answer

See below: Nc does not have endemic malaria at this time. Suggest a simple pregnancy test to rule out the obvious, and then consider alternatives.
