Hello! I have been unable to take my Xulane BC patch for nearly one month. Ive been on it for nearly 10 years. Its unavailable for purchase near me. Once I fly back home I can restart. What can I expect in terms of side effects of not having it? Please keep in mind that Im not using it for preventing pregnancy. I'm using it to manage my hormonal issues with PCOS, Endometriosis, Adenomyosis, etc. What can I do to navigate the moodiness, irritability, etc until I can put the patch back on? How long will it take for my cycle to balance again?
I have endometriosis and chocolate cyst since last 1 year. Doctors gave Dienogest 2mg. Have missed periods for that since October. But cyst size have not reduced since that. Before that if was reducing slightly. Now stopped. Don't know what's the solution to this. Will I have to continue Dienogest lifelong?
Hi Doctor
My normal LMP was on 27 Nov 2025
Sexually active in december
Light bleeding on 26 dec 2025
Mid-Jan to mid-Feb nausea, vomiting, fatigue, breast tenderness, constipation/diarrhea, constant pain on one side of lower abdomen
UPTs were faint-positive to negative(recently taken yesterday)
Beta hcg on 1st Feb- <2.3miu/ml
4th Feb <0.2miu/ml
8th March 0.5miu/ml
I feel like twitching in lower abdomen on one side, swollen but no tenderness in breast and a bit of tummy
Is any type of pregnancy possible with these beta hcg readings?
Cryptic, ectopic or molar pregnancy?
is beta hcg undetectable due to hook effect or variant hook effect?
I have been reading online where people dont notice they are pregnant up until Labour cause of lack of Symptoms, undetectable hcg due to hormonal imbalance, got periods throughout pregnancy or unrecognizable fetal movements and tummy growth due to retroverted uterus/anterior placenta.
Is it possible that I have undetected pregnancy in my case?
My wife is 16 weeks pregnant. Since this morning, she has been experiencing mild heaviness and a pulling sensation in the lower vaginal area.
Could you please advise what we should do? Is this something normal during pregnancy, or should we consult a doctor immediately?
