In a previous thread, concerned with the reliability of fibrosis tests like biopsy, Fibroscan, Fibrotest, FibroTC, etc., I mentioned a simple fibrosis index I recently discovered called the AST-to-Platelet Ratio Index, or APRI, that can be calculated from blood tests, and which has been shown to have a high level of reliability.
Avatar f tn I have ovarian cyst and i stopped my ocp 2 months ago. Last 2 periods were very dry with brown blood and lasted just 2 days...and this month's period started right after I had sex. By third day it was brown blood and it's very light but it won't stop. I think it's because of ocp and my last two period were very dry But I'm not sure.
1250698 tn?1371351279 if you are taking the the OCP like you are suppose to and have not been on any antibiotics then the chances of you being pregnant are slim and if you are just starting a new OCP then you can expect that your cycles and symptoms may be a little whacky to start with
Avatar n tn if you have been taking the OCP like you are suppose to on top of your boyfriend using condoms I don't think that you are pregnant you may just still be adjusting to the change in the birth control although they are both hormones they are still made differently so your cycles may be a little off until you get adjusted to the new OCP
Avatar f tn there could be a chance, or he is going deep inside of you and it's irritating the tissue.
Avatar n tn Did you tell your doc that you are a pregnant now?Pregnant women should not take OCP for migraine though it is caused by hormones.Symptoms such as auras and headache worsen if you continue to take OCP during pregnancy.As your age is very young to bear a child its better you could talk to a gynecologist about having a baby at this time(a very young age),with migraine.Its better you may take Imitrex injection or nasal spray as it seems to be very safe in classical migraine.
Avatar f tn So - changing or quitting you OCP is an option but probably something you would do if you were really desparate for help (unless you are really wanting to get off the OCP anyway.) Regarding the dwelle and dakinar drops from Dr .Holley - I've heard of them here and there but don't really see much difference from something like thera tears, refresh plus or systane. The preservative seems to not be as modern as some newer drops.
Avatar f tn 0.5 and 1.5. That is, an APRI score of less than 0.5 means no or very slight fibrosis, and an APRI score of more than 1.5 means cirrhosis. The intermediate scores approximate the intermediate fibrosis stages. I have now calculated my APRI score for the seven blood tests done between 2006 and now, and the graph of the scores shows a steady progression from early to later stage fibrosis, which is apparently what has happened. That is, I'm a fast progressor (65 years old, geno 1b, etc.).
Avatar n tn I had some really odd symptoms with Yasmin and begged my dr to take me off of it, since then I was on Apri, which is just generic desogen. Initally did much better on this one so I'm not sure how yaz/yasmin works but I can say my withdrawal bleed "period" got way longer on it- I used to only bleed for 4 days on Aleese, then gradually this increased and due to weight gain and water retention switched to Yasmin...
Avatar n tn This is my first month ever being on birth control and i'm on the 28-day pack pills called Apri. i started taking the last week the "reminder pills" 3 days ago and the way i understood it is that i'm supposed to get my period on the first day i took the reminder pills...could i be pregnant or is there something else wrong?
Avatar n tn I have one sex partner. Please help! I am also on birth control Apri and have been having extreme acne under my jawline on my neck (I read this is hormonal). Please give me your input on what you think is wrong.
Avatar f tn OK. So I was on Apri for a year when I was with my bf. My last period on Apri was July 18, 2008. After that period, I took about 4 of the pills before I decided to go off the pill for a few months, since my bf and I broke up months ago and I don't like taking medicine/hormones I don't need. Naturally, my period started again a few days after I stopped taking the pill, so maybe the beginning of August. Last week, I made a really stupid, stupid mistake and slept with my ex w/o protection.
7510956 tn?1411671417 Hi and welcome. Feeling healthy and approaching cirrhosis are not exclusive. Many people who have complete cirrhosis which is more advanced than your liver disease feel fine. It is only when cirrhosis becomes advanced that serious complications appear. Having fluid retention (ascites and edema), enlarged collateral veins (varices), etc. Others may have more recent data on Fibrosure. This is what I found...
