Recent Answers
Is it safe for PCOS patients to get a hormonal contraceptive device (IUD)?
Hormonal contraceptive is as safe as the hormone is for any individual with or without PCOD . Requires exclusion from contraindications and continued surveillance when on.
Is there a way to check IUD (Intrauterine device) regularly to prevent embedded IUD/perforation?
Yes, the location of the IUCD can be imaged by ultrasound conveniently by an ultrasonographing gynaecologist.
Why am I experiencing pregnancy symptoms when I have a period and my pregnancy test is negative?
It depends what symptoms you have that are associated with pregnancy. Without further information, my best guess is that it is probably due to hormonal effects on the body & mind .
