Dermoid Cyst sa O***y

Alam mo ba na may isang uri ng cyst sa o***y na pwedeng maglaman ng buhok, sebum (laman ng pimple), at kahit ngipin? Ito ay tinatawag na dermoid cyst!

Ang dermoid cyst ay isang uri ng tumor na nabubuo sa o***y ng mga kababaihan na karaniwang benign, ngunit pwedeng magdulot ng mga problema kung hindi ito matukoy nang maaga.

Minsan walang sintomas pero maaaring kabilang ang:
- Sakit o may bigat na nararamdaman sa puson
- Pagpintig sa puson
- Paglaki ng tiyan
- Problema o hirap mabuntis
- Irregularidad sa pagreregla

Importante na mag-konsulta sa inyong doktor kung nakakararanas ng ganitong sintomas. Ang dermoid cyst ay maaaring matukoy sa pamamagitan ng ultrasound o iba pang imaging test.

Kaya huwag mag-atubiling magtanong sa iyong doktor tungkol sa dermoid cyst sa o***y!

Anong kwentong Magnesium Sulfate nyo? Sobrang init na’to!!! 😭

Why Magnesium sulfate?

Magnesium sulfate (given intravenously) is the treatment of choice for severe preeclampsia to prevent eclampsia, or after eclampsia develops to prevent more seizures. Many, but not all, providers will also treat every preeclamptic patient with magnesium sulfate during labor, even when the disease may only have mild features. Eclampsia can occur even without the presence of severe preeclampsia symptoms. Magnesium treatment is generally continued for 24-48 hours after the last seizure or beyond delivery. Patients may receive magnesium sulfate in an intensive care unit or a labor and delivery unit. While magnesium is given patients should be observed closely, receive intravenous fluids, and may have a catheter placed in their bladder to measure urine output.

Magnesium sulfate can be used by a skilled healthcare provider with appropriate support facilities. Overdoses can occur and lead to harm to the kidneys, so patients should be closely monitored.

Magnesium sulfate can make most patients feel yucky, while some report they feel better on it. Side effects of magnesium sulfate may include drowsiness, redness, flushing or overheating, muscle fatigue or weakness, dizziness, and trouble concentrating. Symptoms typically go away shortly after the medication is stopped. Its use can be very uncomfortable, providers included it in treatments to prevent a worse outcome - seizures.
