I’m 27 year old female who has for the past 3months during urine dipping for various reasons has had blood (sometimes protein) in my urine, it isn’t visible to the naked eye. I had a urine test again today and they have now told me they will be referring me to urology, of course I googled symptoms and now i have convinced my self it could be cancer. I have had period like aches in right side of abdomen on and off for months hence the visit to the doctors. And was treated for possible kidney infection back in August.
I’m really worried and stressing about this now as I don’t know how long I will have to wait.
Had bloods done last week that all came back negative and urine test show no sign of infection, please help.
Thank you
My 12th week scan showed everything is o.k during pregnancy. Things were the way round when the radiologist suggested that there is caudal regression syndrome.
I was refereed to maternity doctor for termination option?
Should I rely one scan report or do i Need to do further investigation?
Hello .
I don’t know if you can help me. I have a bit of a strange question I was hoping to receive some advice about.
I apologize if it seems a bit random.
I have a disposable camera which I have kept in my bedside drawer for years and years and never got it developed. I noticed today that inside the flash compartment it looks wet and on the outer casing where it joins I think there are wet small patches.i just feel concerned as I’m not sure if it is leaked from an old battery inside or another substance that might be toxic.i read online that battery acid is carcinogenic and it just concerns me that with it being in my drawer for years this substance could have been repeatedly getting on my clothes. My worry is that I breastfeed my baby so I’m more concerned for her if she has come into contact with this on her mouth or anything as my bras are in this drawer and that it could be a repeated exposure.
Is there any advice you can give me on this as my big fear is something like this causing cancer ,
Many thanks.
I’m 20 years old and I am married to the man I have been with for 6 years.
We have been trying to have a baby for over 2 years now and nothing is happening, beforehand we have never used protection and still never any pregnancies. He has been tested by his gp and he is clear, my periods have not been normal ever since I started my periods. I have no other medical requirements, and I have had blood tests and I am fine apart from my bones was still growing but nothing to worry about as I’m still young.
I need answers, i am not exactly happy with the thought of going to hospital to actually get tested as I’ve already heard what happens. Please please help me, we want to have our own family.

Good day. I need help i have really bad pain in both of my ovary sides… I went to the doctor he pushed on my right and it hurt. But then he pushed on my left side and i screamed with pain. I had a full bladder so when he pushed on my bladder it hurted but he said that’s normal for a overfull bladder. And then i peed in a cup. He then pushed it again i had no pain. He moved from the right side to the left and when he pushed i screamed again. He said i might be pregnant.. Then i told him i had sex unprotected with my bf on the 3 sept and i had my period on the 16 sept… I had a really bad period. And then October came i had my period on the 14th… Barely a period… Had no symptoms. Just ate a lot. But my next period is due on the 14 Nov. The doctor then said i wont be pregnant so he said i had bladder infection just by looking at my pee… He did not test it.. He gave me meficine which is not taking away my side pains but giving me nausea for a little while… Can i be pregnant unknowingly … I did take test.. Negative. Is this a case of ectopic pregnancy… My sister said it might be…. Or is the doctor right …do i have infection. I had bladder infection before that is why i know the feeling. Its not the same. I also had ovary infection about 5-6 months ago. The doctors did give me meds. I have not had any pain since then… But two months ago when i had sex with my bf … I had a really really bad period. Is there anything else that might cause this pain i am having in both my ovary sides or is it bladder infection?? I am only 19 years and completely freaked out now. Please help.
Thank you
I’m 27 year old female, generally fit, I’m 12 weeks pregnant and have been unwell for the last 3 days taking paracetamol which does not seem to help at all. I went to the Drs Monday after being up every hour in pain ached all over kept drinking water hoping to flush my system through, got to the Drs sat in the waiting room and had to leave As I came over very hot and felt funny so I got myself and my 3 daughters back in the car and drove home. Tuesday I had an appointment first thing so made sure I went I told the dr I was certain I had tonsillitis as had seen white at the sides of my throat he told me it was laryngitis and that he didn’t feel antibiotics was necessary to take paracetamol and go get some dissoluble aspirin from the pharmacy to gurgle and that it would go within a couple of days. The pharmacist refused to sell me aspirin as I’m pregnant she said I either needed prescription or I could buy it off the shelf but she put me off the idea so I stuck to paracetamol and nurofen. Today I woke up still have a headache I was up from 2-4 in the night sweating that much I had to take my top of as it was sticking to me. I woke up with a headache and ears that feel as though I have an earache on its way. I’ve been having hot and cold flushes all day slept for 2 hours why the children were at school, my body keeps shaking and it hurts, my neck hurts the most turning it to the side up or down. I now have a cough on its way and keep being sick bile I have managed to eat but only a little all day I don’t want to keep taking tablets as this is unlike me and I’m pregnant. My hands and feet keep going really cold why the rest of my body is warm. Any advise would be greatly received.

Hi. I’m a 36-year old male. Around April this year, I had three episodes of hematuria. Scared, I went to a nephrologist & then another urologist. They conducted a number of tests on me including urinalysis, urine culture, X-ray and USG of KUB, phase contrast microscopy, lever and kidney function tests and a range of other blood tests. Almost everything came normal and the phase contrast microscopy found that the blood was coming from lower urinary tract. The doctors did not find any stones, lesions or tumors during the USG.
One morning in August, I passed a nearly 2mm stone through my urine. The urologist says I do not need to be scared anymore.
But I have a few issues of concern:
1) Ever since, right after the hematuria episodes, at times, when I strain to pass a stool, drops of whitish semen-like substance comes out of my penis. In order to tackle this situation, I stopped straining at least a week back and it had nearly stopped. But over the past two days, I have noticed on two occasions, a small jelly-like transparent substance come out after I finish peeing. It usually sticks to the bowl and when I drop water on it, it rolls off into the water and sinks. Is this something to worry about?
FYI: My wife is pregnant. And I haven’t had sex or masturbated since September this year.
2) Often when I am sitting down, I feel a slight burning sensation near the head of my penis. Also, at times, when I finish urinating, I walk a few steps and then sit on the commode for the last few drops to come out. Over the last few months, frequently, the last few drops have been light yellow. Is this something to worry about?
I had asked about these things to my urologist. But he seems rather indifferent.
I had some bumps on my penis at the bottom where my pubic hairs would start at first I thought they were just in grown hairs from me shaving but now I don’t know . I’m confused as to what they are because when I read on herpes it said they would be painful if it were but it’s not painful I haven’t had any discharges so please can I get your help
21, Female, only medications are headache medication, over the counter, etc. I’ve been experiencing a nonstop period for several months. I do have a daughter, but she’s 9 months. I talked to my OB/GYN and he said it could be where my body is still pushing out all the held periods during my pregnancy, but I don’t think it’s that considering she’s 9 months already. I have an extreme loss of appetite, as well as when I was pregnant. I can go hours without a meal, and when I do get hungry, I either eat very little or a lot.
I’m just looking for answers as to what it could be. I’ve done research and it sounds like I have endometriosis, or it could be my fibroids. I would just like a medical professional’s opinion as to what’s wrong with me.
(…), on mirtazapine, quetiapine, zopiclone, citalopram.
I had unprotected sex three weeks ago, when my period was already 3 days overdue. Is it at all possible that I could have been ovulating then? I have heard that women can ovulate at any time, and some women, twice in a month. I completely missed my period after that, and I have had other pregnancy symptoms such as severe menstrual cramps, pink blood spotting and extra vaginal discharge.
Is there any chance I could be pregnant?
I hope so.
Thanks
