A cystocele occurs when the bladder drops and pushes against the vaginal wall due to weakened pelvic floor muscles and tissues.

This can cause discomfort, pressure, urinary leakage or difficulty emptying the bladder fully. While it may sound alarming, cystoceles are treatable.

Options range from lifestyle changes and pelvic floor exercises to medical procedures or surgery, depending on severity.

Recognizing symptoms early helps women seek the right care and prevent complications.

Do you experience pain during in*******se?

This could be dyspareunia, a condition causing persistent or recurring discomfort during s*xual activity.

It can affect women of all ages and arises from multiple factors: hormonal changes, vaginal dryness, infections, pelvic conditions or psychological stress and anxiety.

Symptoms include burning, stinging or deep pelvic pain during or after s*x. Early recognition is key to protecting both physical and emotional well-being.

Consult a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis, use lubrication if needed, manage underlying conditions, communicate openly with your partner and consider pelvic floor therapy or counseling to improve comfort and s*xual health.

September marks PCOS Awareness Month, a reminder of the impact this condition has on millions of women worldwide.

PCOS is more than irregular periods or weight gain, it’s linked to hormonal imbalance, fertility challenges, insulin resistance and long-term risks like diabetes and heart disease.

Early diagnosis and lifestyle management play a critical role in reducing complications.

Awareness helps break myths, encourage timely medical support, and empower women to take control of their health.

Talk openly, get checked

Between 18 and 22 weeks of pregnancy, your baby’s organs are developed enough for detailed imaging, making it the ideal time for an anomaly scan.

This scan checks for structural issues like heart defects, spinal abnormalities and limb development problems.

Catching these early gives you and your doctor time to plan the next steps with clarity and confidence.

This scan isn’t just a routine check, it’s a vital part of safeguarding your baby’s health and your peace of mind during pregnancy.

Cervical ectropion occurs when the softer, glandular cells from inside the cervical canal (endocervix) are present on the outer surface of the cervix.

These cells are more delicate and may produce noticeable symptoms.

Common symptoms are light bleeding after s*x (postcoital bleeding), increased clear or yellowish vaginal discharge, and occasional spotting between periods.

It’s especially common in younger women, those taking estrogen-containing birth control pills and during pregnancy, all times when hormone levels fluctuate.

Cervical ectropion is harmless and not pre-cancerous. It is not related to cervical cancer.

If symptoms persist or are bothersome, or if bleeding is unexplained, a gynaecological check-up is important to rule out other possible causes (like infection or cervical polyps).

How long is too long to wait before seeing a gynaecologist?

If you're dealing with irregular periods, unusual discharge, pelvic pain, or postmenopausal bleeding, don't brush it off.

These symptoms might be signs of conditions like endometriosis, fibroids, infections or early-stage cancers.

Early attention can prevent long-term complications and reduce the need for more invasive treatments later.

Don't self-diagnose. Don't delay.

Book a consult when your body says something's not right.

What happens when your fallopian tube swells with trapped fluid?

Hydrosalpinx is a condition where one or both fallopian tubes become blocked and filled with fluid, usually after an infection or surgery.

It often goes unnoticed until fertility issues surface, making it a hidden cause of delayed conception.

The condition can lower IVF success rates and increase the risk of miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy.

Symptoms like pelvic pain or unusual discharge may occur, but not always. Early detection commonly relies on ultrasound imaging or sometimes an HSG (hysterosalpingogram)

Surgical intervention (like removal or clipping of the tube) or draining the fluid can improve fertility outcomes, especially before IVF.

Why do some smells suddenly feel unbearable during pregnancy?

It’s not just a mood swing. Changes in taste and smell sensitivity are your body’s early defence, often triggered by rising hormone levels like hCG and estrogen.

These food aversions can feel frustrating, but they play a protective role, especially in the first trimester.

If you're dealing with this, you're not alone, and you don’t have to guess your way through it.

Talk to your OB-GYN about safe alternatives and personalised nutrition tips.

* Emotional security through bonding

This week, let’s focus on providing real support instead of pressure.

Endometriosis and Adenomyosis aren’t just “bad periods”, they impact daily life, fertility and long-term health.

Some stories still make me pause, like the couple who came after five miscarriages and walked out with twins.

Or the woman who whispered “thank you” after her fourth transfer finally worked.

Science gave us the tools, yes. But hope...

hope is what walks in every morning and sits across from me with quiet eyes and trembling hands.

Today, I don’t celebrate medicine alone. I celebrate every tear, every try, every heartbeat we’ve fought for together.

Because hope isn’t just an idea. It’s someone’s future. And I’ve seen it born.
