Question

Bleed 3 months straight and it would stop for 2 days and then come back at first it was just spotting but now its gotten heavyier I do not have health insurance and I had an IUD removed over a year ago. My periods were fine up til 3 months ago please help

Answer 1

A "non-hormonal IUD" which was removed secondary to bleeding, may not have prevented pregnancy. Obtain a serum HCG test to be certain about pregnancy, which can occur outside the uterus (ectopic). See your gyn if positive asap.

Answer 2

Not necessarily: Family history - mother's and father's, and sibling's - can suggest a predilection for ear infections, but it is only a tendency, not definite. If there is a family history, monitor closely.

Answer 3

Not necessarily: Maybe. The odds are higher. But, it isn't for certain. The family may have an anatomy that makes ear infections at a young age more likely, but other factors such as smoke exposure or allergies may also have a huge impact.

Answer 4

No: It seems your older children had recurrent ear infections, i.e., more than three infections within a year. Genetics plays some role in making a child more susceptible to develop ear infection. Besides, attending day care program and second hand smoking increase the chance as well. On the other hand, breast feeding and getting timely shots of flu and pneumococcus (prevnar) work opposite.

Answer 5

Not necessary: It may not be the same for the youngest child.

Answer 6

Yes: Rectal bleeding may be caused by hemorrhoids. Colonoscopy is the standard of care to evaluate rectal bleeding in people over 40.

Answer 7

Could: Be internal hemorrhoids as they usually are associated with painless bleeding, could also be a chronic fissure which may alos bleed painlessly. More importantly one should determine the reason for having to strain to have bm. Probably best to get checked by a GI doctor or a colorectal surgeon.

Answer 8

Can be normal: Some pain and swelling can be normal at this stage. May take close to 1 full year for complete resolution with good therapy. Signs of metal allergy include persistent pain and swelling, skin rashes, including hives , and x-ray findings of component loosening. A sample of the metal, provided by the implant company, can be taped to your arm to confirm. Ask your surgeon.

Answer 9

Probably unrelated: Abdominal pain and tongue numbness are likely unrelated. Many things can cause right sided abdominal pain, even after gallbladder removal. The most common things that cause tongue numbness is tongue swelling, most commonly due to allergies or poisonings.

Answer 10

See your Dr.: Her tongue getting numb probably has nothing to do with the pain which may be gas.

Answer 11

Neither: If it's a stone not much but medication and passing the stone will help. My condolences.

Answer 12

Kidney infection: Kidney infection (pyelonephritis) generally causes fever, chills and very significant flank pain. One generally feels "sick". Bladder infection (cystitis) rarely causes systemic symptoms. Discomfort in the pelvic area and irritative voiding symptoms are typical.
