Interesting Scenarios

Can you or someone you know relate to any one of the scenarios below at some point in time?

• The question ‘How long is your menstrual cycle?’, though simple, is daunting and embarrassing to some women. A common answer I get is 'it usually comes every 13th or 14th or ..!' However, menses do not follow calendar dates!

• I had an unusual office visit one day by a young couple for infertility problems. However, it turned to be a problem of mislabeling the period of menses as the fertile period. One of them had learned that the period of menstrual flow is the fertile period and arguments and tensions were already mounting up!

• I have met women who just get carried away by whatever is "shown" to be an effective home remedy for cramps, PMS, PCOS, menopause etc.

• Many middle age women approaching menopause do not know what to expect and how to handle the changes. I have met just a few who sought medical care for menopause symptoms with the fear of some "terrible" disease going on.
• There are still parents who need help with educating their girls on menstruation issues. They get "paralyzed" either because of embarrassment or a feeling of having inadequate knowledge besides talking to her about menstrual pads.
• The lists continues...

A Doctor’s Office?

As a medical doctor, I find great delight in creating this website to be a condensation of what I have used over the years in educating women on menstruation-related topics.

The information it contains is what I would have presented if we were in the office! It would seem to be having a doctor's answers to your questions in your home, without waiting for your next clinic visit!

However, the website remains just a self-education tool for you and not a replacement of your Doctor's visit or medical attention when you need one.
