Specialised Women Care

In vitro fertilization or for acronym-y purposes, IVF gets its name from the fact that fertilization occurs outside of the woman’s body, in a lab dish instead of a woman’s fallopian tubes. Typically, a woman will use ovulation stimulating drugs to produce an excess number of eggs. These eggs or “follicles”, are surgically removed from the woman and fertilized in a dish with sperm. If fertilization takes place, the physician transfers the embryo(s) into the woman’s uterus.

I HAVEN’T HAD A PERIOD FOR SOME TIME, AND I KNOW I’M NOT PREGNANT. WHAT COULD BE THE CAUSE?

It’s quite normal to have some delay before the return of your periods if you have recently stopped taking the contraceptive pill. However, if you have not been taking the contraceptive pill, usually have regular periods but have not had one for six consecutive months or more, several factors may be considered. Some of the more common reasons are:

  • Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS).
  • Disorders such as hyperthyroidism.
  • Disorders of the pituitary gland.
  • Ovarian cysts or tumours.
  • Stress.
  • Being very underweight or very overweigh.
  • Sustained, strenuous exercise – particularly common in athletes.
  • Breastfeeding.
  • Menopause, or premature ovarian failure (early menopause).

It is best to check with a doctor to find out what is causing this.

I’VE BEEN BLEEDING IN THE MIDDLE OF MY MENSTRUAL CYCLE. WHAT COULD BE CAUSING THIS?

Some women experience bleeding about 10-14 days after their period. Usually, this is caused by a temporary drop in levels of the hormone oestrogen at the time of ovulation (when an egg is released by an ovary). This is quite normal. However, if bleeding occurs at other points during the menstrual cycle, it is wise to consult your gynaecologist to rule out the possibility of other conditions.
