Health Query

I am a 20 years old female. I have pcos. 5 months ago I stopped taking krimson (the birth control my gynaecologist had prescribed me) to see if I get normal periods. And I so happened that my periods were back and regular (32 day cycles) and I had no acne or weight gain. And my discharge would get slippery and stringy near the time of supposed ovulation and after that it would dry up and be negligible until periods. I take supplements like inositol, folate, vitamin d, etc. However, in my menstrual cycle in august, the discharge was quite unpredictable. I had stringy discharge throughout the cycle and it didn't dry up which made me think it was an anovulatory cycle. And period occurred on the 28th day. After that for two consecutive months I had good and healthy menstrual cycles where my discharge was predictable (it would get wet and slippery leading up to ovulation and would be dry and negligible after the 17th day) and the cycles would be 32 days long. This month my discharge has been irregular again. It has been slippery and wet and stringy all throughout, and it's only now (around the 23rd day) when i'm experiencing some decrease in my discharge. Is this cycle anovulatory? If yes, what could be the possible reason behind it? And what should I do to avoid it in future?

Asked for male, 34 years old from Delhi

1. What are the long term side effects of Statins. I read on multiple sites like Pubmed Citations, WebMD, Drugs.com and other journals that it can cause Muscle Pain (which I am going through now - left shoulder and arm). 2. Does it causes Hair Loss. I am losing hair and at pretty high speed. I am feeling burning scalp and hair loss both. I consulted dermatologists as well as hair specialists but nobody could resolve the issue (or find the cause). 3. I am taking atorlip f (10 mg atorvastatin+160 fenofibrate). It helped reduce my triglycerides to 89 from 399 within a month and total cholesterol from 210 to 164 within one month. My HDL is good and LDL is within range. 4. After the report I moved to 5 Mg atorlip (statin) it again brought back triglycerides to 299 and total cholesterol to 207. HDL fine, LDL high. One more thing I noticed is (Vitamin B12 very low, vitamin D very low, prediabetes - No family history). 5. I am not back on Statin 10 MG Fenofibrate 160 mg (Atorlip F). My Question is - Can I just take Fenofibrate only to reduce triglycerides and will it help me reduce my triglycerides level? Will that cause any issue? - Can I take Niacin (nicotinic acid) only with combination to Multivitamin - Daily Cardio exercise (6 Km cycling 3 KM walk). And Strict diet. My Background: Very sedentary, with pedometer I take 500-600 steps a day in total. Couch potato, 5.7 feet, 58 KG (THIN) - lost 6 KG through swimming only. No history of Familial Hypertriglyceridemia. What would you recommend as alternative treatment for me, based on the observation above.

The myoinositol only helps to restart periods lost in pcod and in our case, the delay may be unrelated to medicine.

Asked for female, 30 years old from Tirupur

Hello Doctor. Actually I have been detected with Pcod back in 2015 and whenever I skipped periods I visited my gain and she prescribed me to take regestrone tabs. And a pcod obis. And asked me to lose weight But the last time I visited her. She prescribed me some tabs to lose weight. After consuming which it felt like I had gastric. And was unable to eat anything. If I ate. My stomach burned. So I gave up on the tabs and tried to discuss with her. But she did not pay any heed. So I gave up going to her. And now I am regulating my periods on my own by consuming 6 regestrone tabs before 10 days of periods. I did lost weight. But now I thought of giving it up. And tried not taking regestrone for a month. And I gained weight. And finally I took it again. Waiting for periods this month. Doctor can you please suggest me some treatment. How do I cure it. Heard from somewhere regestrone stops ovulation. Does it really happen. I am unmarried 28 years. If I get married. Will I ever be able to conceive and deliver.
