00:00 Welcome back to Pinoy MD!

00:02 And as I told you earlier,

00:04 we will be joined by our resident obstetrician gynecologist, Doc Q,

00:08 to answer the questions you sent us regarding our health.

00:13 So let's welcome him.

00:15 Good morning to you, Doc Q!

00:17 Good morning, Connette.

00:18 Good morning to our viewers.

00:20 Are you ready, Doc Q?

00:22 Here's our first question.

00:24 Is it normal for a woman to have a pain in her bladder and her uterus when she has menstruation?

00:31 That question is from Norisa Pio.

00:34 It's normal for other women to have pain in their bladder, uterus, and other parts of the body when they have menstruation.

00:42 And this is because of hormonal changes, fluctuations in progesterone and estrogen

00:48 that control the menstrual cycle of a woman.

00:51 And when it comes to menstruation, or even before menstruation,

00:54 about 3 to 4 days before menstruation,

00:56 other women feel pain in their bladder because their breasts swell,

01:01 and they have edema because of the fluctuations of hormones.

01:05 So it's okay to feel those concerns.

01:09 And this is another question, Doc,

01:10 will a 48-year-old woman have a pregnancy if she stops using contraceptive pills?

01:16 This is from Lei F.

01:18 If you're 48 years old and you're on pills,

01:21 and you're regularly menstruating,

01:22 if you stop using pills and you're still menstruating every month,

01:27 potentially, you're still capable of getting pregnant.

01:30 So a woman in the perimenopausal period can still have a pregnancy.

01:34 Next question for you, Doc.

01:36 Is it normal for a woman to not have a pregnancy for a year?

01:40 That question is from Annie Mee, Jaikten, and Daniel.

01:46 You're in the reproductive age, Annie Mee,

01:49 and before this problem, you were regularly menstruating,

01:52 and now, you haven't been menstruating for a year.

01:55 That's called secondary amenorrhea.

01:57 And there are many reasons why a woman has secondary amenorrhea.

02:02 First, anorexia nervosa,

02:04 or maybe a woman is obese and suddenly she lost weight,

02:08 and then she has obesity, and she has hormonal imbalances.

02:12 The main reason for that is in the endocrine system of a person,

02:17 like in the pituitary gland, hypothalamus, if there's a problem there,

02:21 if there's a problem in hormone production,

02:23 the menstrual cycle of a woman can be affected.

02:27 Or it can also be in the end organ, which we call ovary, and uterus.

02:32 In ovaries, the most common problem there is polycystic ovary syndrome.

02:36 And this is only diagnosed in ultrasound,

02:39 or in clinical presentations of a woman.

02:42 So if you have a problem that you haven't been menstruating for a year,

02:46 you should see your gynecologist

02:48 so that you can be evaluated properly and given the right medicine

02:53 so that you can menstruate again.

02:55 Thank you, Doc.

02:56 Lastly, why is it that she's been delayed for 5 months

03:00 but the result of her pregnancy test is negative?

03:04 The question is from Queenie Lyer.

03:07 If you haven't been menstruating for 5 months

03:10 and your pregnancy test is negative,

03:12 and you might have repeated your negative pregnancy test,

03:15 so two negative pregnancy tests, there are many reasons for that.

03:19 I also want to know if you're on a diet or you eat a lot

03:23 because if there's a sudden weight loss or sudden weight gain,

03:26 there can be hormonal imbalance and this can be a problem.

03:29 Or it can also be in the ovaries.

03:33 If you have polycystic ovary syndrome,

03:35 if you have tumors that cause hormonal imbalance,

03:38 you can also have this problem.

03:40 So it's important to see your doctor, especially the gynecologist,

03:45 so that you can be examined and evaluated properly.

03:48 Thank you so very much, Dr. Q,

03:50 for answering our questions and of course for guiding our patients.

03:55 Send your questions to our Facebook page

03:58 and maybe the next question that we'll read here will be from you.

04:03 See you next week!
