<s>[INST]<<SYS>>You are a Bot identify the response from Patient and give medication as a Doctor <</SYS>> Description: Q. Can Yasmin birth control pill be used as an emergency contraceptive pill? Patient:Hello doctor, My fiancee and I had unprotected sex a few days back, but I did not ejaculate inside her. Just to be on the safer side, we wanted to use the emergency contraceptive pill. But due to some restriction in the country where we live, Plan B or emergency contraceptive pills are not available. I read that Yasmin, which is used as a regular contraceptive pill can be used as an emergency contraceptive pill at a higher dosage. Can Yasmin be used as an emergency contraceptive pill? And at what dosage? [/INST] Doctor:Hi. How are you doing? Yes, as you have heard, Yasmin can be used as an emergency pill. Even if you have not ejaculated into her, she stands a chance of pregnancy if the pre-seminal fluid, the clear fluid that comes out before semen, which is rich in young healthy sperms, comes in contact with her genitals. As soon as possible, earlier the better, I suggest taking four tablets of Yasmin (combination of Ethinyl Estradiol and Drospirenone) at the time, repeat four more tablets after 12 hours. This being a high dose of hormones, it will suddenly increase the inner lining of the uterus. Then as it is a single dose, the inner lining will fall off. This makes it unfavorable for the possible embryo or baby to settle into the uterus. She will get her periods within 7 to 10 days of the last pill. But do not keep repeating this frequently, it can disturb the hormonal balance and can reduce the effectiveness of the pill. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her and start taking the medicines after their consent. This is an old method, but it is an effective emergency method. Just do not delay the pills. As time passes by, the effectiveness reduces. Hope I have clarified your query, do write back. All the best.

Unless the kid's having low urine output or very dull or excessively sleepy or blood in motion or green bilious vomiting...you need not worry. There is no need to use antibiotics unless there is blood in the motion. Antibiotics might worsen if unnecessarily used causing antibiotic associated diarrhoea.I suggest you use zinc supplements (Z&D drops 1ml once daily for 14 days) & ORS (Each small packet mixed in 200ml of potable water and keep giving sip by sip) as hydration is very important and crucial part of treatment. If there is vomiting you can use Syrup Ondansetron (as prescribed by your paediatrician).Regarding diet - You can use cerelac...any flavour will do. Avoid fruit juices as they might aggravate diarrhea. You can give zinc supplements & ORS apart from normal vegetarian porridges & soups.Hope my answer was helpful for you.

Forom what you ve described, it seems like your child has GERD (reflux). they tend to vomit when going to bed or after a heavy meal.My advice would be to give smaller meals, a little more frequently, avoid chocolate/tea/coffee which increase reflux. To make her walk around a bit after her meals, not immediately lie down. keep her bed reclining at a 30 degree angle (you could put some blocks under her head-end side of the bed).Ask your doctor about starting domperidone which helps reflux. ondansetron half hour before food will help the vomiting.Hope this helps you, take care.Regards,Dr. Vaishnavi </s>

Runny eyes, runny nose, very bad chest cough, hot and cold flushes, slight temperature elevation. Saw my GP who said it was a reaction to pollen due to area I live in. Gave me Telfast 180mg. I have had this for more than 3months. Very tired, lack of sleep at night due to coughing fits etc. Also take a Multi Vitamin as well. I m 56 yrs and not getting any younger. Starting affect my daily routines, work, and external activities. Any suggestions please. Tony [/INST] Doctor:Allergic rhinitis is not a rare disease and can effect a people of differernt ages. All the symptoms that you are having are more or less classical for this condition. There are three major ways to go about in treating Allergic Rhinitis1. Prevention - Taking medications to avoid having the symptoms2. Symptomatic - Taking medication to alleviate the symptoms you are experiencing.3. Immunotherapy - Make you immune to the allergens causing the symptoms in the first place.In your case as your symptoms have already started. We need to get your symptoms in control first. You are unfortunately having the full package of symptoms i.e., your eyes, your nose and your chest, all three things are involved. If your symptoms have failed to settle with an anti allergic medication like telfast and are experiencing fatigue and lack of sleep then its better you see your physician sooner than later. I would suggest that you should be on the following drugs initially and then the drugs can be slowly tapered off.1. Steroid nasal spray2. Anti allergic eye drops3. Anti Allergic oral medication4. A Steroid + Beta Agonist inhaler (If the chest on examination reveals narrowing of airways)5. In extreme types of allergic Rhinitis your physician can even give you a few days of oral steroids to get your symptoms under control quickly.Once your symptoms are under control then he can concentrate on referring you to an allergy specialist for immunotherapy which can take weeks to months to get the adequate relief required. Till then your drugs will help keep your symptoms at bay and help you go about your daily work with little or no problems. I hope this helps. </s>

As the hematoma was large enough initially, it might take more time for the blood to get absorbed gradually. You can apply a pressure bandage over it if need be.

[/INST] Doctor:Hi, sorry about the MC. Irregular menstural cycles & inability to conceive are the common problems for women with PCOS. Improper ovulation & excess amount of androgen are the main reasons. Ovarian drilling (ovarian diathermy) is done in women with PCOS to improve the fertility rate. Destroying part of the ovarian tissue restores regular ovulatory cycles in around 80% of women. It is a surgical procedure that triggers ovulation. It is an option only when other measures like weight reduction & fertility drugs fail. It is a safe procedure in expert hands. The aim of this laproscopy procedure is to destroy testosterone producing tissue in the ovary. A combination of Letrazole & Clomiphene Citrate has been found to be useful in improving ovulation. Your BMI is in normal range but the endometrial thickness is high (normal 6.7mm). Since Letrazole has not helped you, you can undergo ovarian drilling. Good Luck. </s>

<s>[INST]<<SYS>>You are a Bot identify the response from Patient and give medication as a Doctor <</SYS>> Description: Is it safe to take Paxil during pregnancy Patient:Hey my name is Amber Mamerow, I am 19 years old and I am having a really difficult time. I guess the only way that i can really explain how i feel is to start at the very beginning so i hope you all have time. I have no one else to ask and no one else is taking me seriously. So i decided that i would try one more time to talk to someone. Since around the age of 13 i was on paxil, it helped A LOT with anxiety, i never found a need to get off of it until i accidentally found myself pregnant at age 18. When i was at the OBGYN the nurse told me that i could not be on paxil while i was pregnant and that i needed to try Zoloft. I never saw the Dr, i never talked to them or anything, i just discontinued my paxil and i began zoloft. The first few days i didn’t feel too bad, i didn’t feel quite right, but i didn’t feel terrible. Than for the next month almost (give or take) after that i had every bad side effect that i could have imagined. I read the side effects for the zoloft and i had 90% of what was listed. I told the Drs several times that i didn’t feel good and that i didn’t want to try any other pill i just wanted to stop taking all of them. After i stopped taking everything all together i felt like i was having withdrawal. I have not felt good since. I am no longer pregnant... i did have an abortion.. but that is a touchy subject.. but i figured that’s also involved with health so i needed to not leave out any details. It has been about 8 months since i have stopped all together and i still to this day do not feel good, every single day i have this odd headache. It feels like pressure in my head. I still have some of the issues that i developed while taking zoloft, which i was told would go away once i stopped and 8 months later i am still dealing with, such as my ears ringing, constantly. I never had that problem before this. I have had countless problems since zoloft and i have been trying to feel better without resulting back to paxil, i like being able to know that i can live without it, i no longer have panic attacks, and if i do on a rare occasion i can control it. I feel i have no need to go back on to paxil, but my dr pretty much insists that i go back on it because he is convinced the way that i feel now is all because of that. The way that i feel right now is a pressure in my head, mainly in my forehead and in the back of my head. If i press on certain parts of my head its sore as if its a soft spot. I have a chronic sinus infection that i have had to treat on and off the allergy seasons with antibiotics, which make that clear up, and strangely enough make my head feel completely better. Many of the Dr s thought that it was the sinus infections that was making my head feel weird. But i asked them why than would i feel pressure in the back of my head when i have no sinus s there? So that blew that theory out. I have also had bacterial and yeast infections every once in a while that also had to be treated with antibiotics, and again, (no sinus infection issues at the time) my head would feel better. Another example of this was when i had another bacterial or yeast infection of some kind and while i was taking my antibiotic it began to make my head feel better, but before i was done taking them it started to feel weird again... So talking with my nose dr he decided that it would be a bad idea to take anymore antibiotics because he thought that they were treating SOMETHING in my head, but no one knew for sure what that SOMETHING was. But he said that if we kept miss treating it with antibiotics than it would soon become immune to them. So since then i have refused to take another antibiotic because i do not want to make anything any worse, but the problem is we have made ZERO progress on what is actually wrong, i have spent over 500 dollars trying to find out what exactly is wrong and we have gotten no where. I began to get worried and i asked for an MRI, and a CT scan, apparently they both came back normal, but i had no one read them to me or go over what exactly there was... but they did assure me that i had no tumor or anything. So that helped reassure me for the time being. I have had multiple blood tests for many different things and they assure me that i have no infections or anything, (which confuses me, because if i have a chronic sinus infection.. shouldn’t that show up?..) but either way they assure me that there is no infection. So i am feeling like i am on my own. I have done research trying to find something, anything that could give the same kind of symptoms of what i am feeling, and i stumbled across meningitis. Now i understand that meningitis is usually severe and can do damage in as little as one day... but i have also found and i will quote it exactly as i found it Occasionally, if someone has been on antibiotics for another infection, the symptoms can take longer to develop or may be less intense my source is from WEBMD. Meningitis can also be caused by the spread of an infection occurring near the brain, such as from the ears or the sinuses. It is also an occasional complication of brain, head, or neck surgery. which i was thinking could have something to do with my sinus infection ( which i now have AGAIN, but cant treat because i cant take antibiotics until we find out what is wrong with my head and why it feels better with antibiotics). I have tried talking to 3 different doctors. My primary, My ear nose and throat doctor, and they both ended up sending me to another doctor... which i cant quite remember who or what he is suppose to do.. but all i remember is him being extremely rude and ignored anything and everything that i had to say.. so i got absolutely no where with him. I left his office in tears and had to pay 80 or more dollars just to be in the same exact spot I’ve been in for months. I have had blood work done and many other things done, i asked my primary doctor out of desperation and last measures to see if i could get a spinal tap to make absolutely sure that it was not meningitis. I am exhausting every option, i am running out of money and i am desperately searching for an answer. I am 19 years old and i have no idea what is wrong with me, it is effecting my everyday life and i have spent so much time, energy and money into figuring out the possible cause of what is going on. I feel like no one is taking me seriously now because my primary doctor has just suggested that i try taking my paxil again. Its very frustrating because i feel like no one takes me seriously once they learn that i have anxiety and they assume that it is all in my head or just taking a simple pill with help make everything better. It just seems like whatever it is, is getting worse, and i would really appreciate help from anyone that is willing to help. I have not taken antibiotics in many months and i feel like my head just keeps getting worse. I don’t know how to explain it... i have been told that it could be cluster headaches... but i have had headaches, i have had migraines.. they are nothing like this. It is a constant, all day everyday, from the second that i wake up to the minute before i fall asleep the same feeling. Lately i have felt extremely tired, my eyes have started to hurt.. i had to go to the eye dr because my vision has been doing weird things, but they said that i have perfect vision and the only problem i have is i have hard corneas.. or whatever that is that causes you to have higher pressure in your eyes without having glaucoma. I have been noticing trails, i see halos around objects mostly people, i see something that i would consider visual static.. and this has all started just recently.. about maybe a month its been happening and getting worse. At first i could see visual static and maybe every once in a while i would see trails, than i started to see halos. I try to ignore it, because i don’t have enough money to go in for a check up any more, i don’t know whets wrong so i don’t know how to have anyone fix it. The reason that i decided to write to you today and not try to ignore it like i do every other day is because i was in the shower today and out of no where i felt like i was going to pass out, i felt this weird sensation that the room was just getting dark and i was just going to pass out, so i jumped out of the shower and sat on the floor for a minute. I had this stabbing pain in my back and my stomach and i felt like i was going to puke, when i felt as if i could stand i did so, and i left the room to get some fresh air, immediately i felt as if i was going to puke again and i ran into the bathroom and i had one dry heave... and felt completely normal again. That is the first time anything like that has ever happened to me before. So please, i am completely lost on what to do. All i want to know is how do i find out what could be wrong with how my head feels. What could be causing it, why does it feel better with antibiotics and what can i do. Please if you have any words of advice please let me know. I am sorry for such a long note but i am running out of people to talk to. Please and thank you. Amber Mamerow [/INST] Doctor:Hello Amber. I completely understand how it feels not to be taken seriously. While I was going through your answer, diagnoses like chronic sinusitis, cerebral venous sinus thrombosis and also vascular headaches did occur to me, but they are difficult to prove with a normal MRI or CT (not vascular headaches though, they appear normal on imaging). The paxil you were taking earlier is not only an anti-anxiety drug but also is used in certain intractable pains, hence I feel your doctor had asked you to restart it hoping for some positive results. However, since you are firm that you donot want to restart it, and I appreciate the decision of trying to manage without the anxiety pills, I feel we have to move on to other possibilities - Benign Intracranial Hypertension is one of them. I would suggest you to get Vitamin A levels too. A spinal tap would certainly help in this case to reach a diagnosis. Hope this helps.Regards,Dr Geeta </s>

[/INST] Doctor:Hi, Angiomyolipomas of kidneys are known to be associated with an entity called Tuberous sclerosis which can manifest with skin lesions. These are usually seen as crops on face and the angiomyolipomas also are seen in both the kidneys in such patients. Without actually having had a look at the lesion on your back it will be difficult to predict what it could be, but it does not sound like a tuberous sclerosis lesion at present. Your being an RN makes it easy for you to understand medical literature, and thus if at next USG, your doctor picks up an enlargement of the angiolipoma or if there are fresh ones, you should be concerned and discus with your urologist as to the next step. If there is no growth of the lesion, and it is less than 2cm, i suggest you can wait and watch if you have no symptoms. </s>

Common causes for having dark pigmentation under the eye are: -Iron deficiency anemia -Stress, anxiety or depression -Lack of sleep, poor sleep hygiene -Poor water intake -Smoking and alcohol -Chronic illness -Unknown causes (idiopathic). So, it is important to identify specific and treatable cause for best result. In most of the cases reasons for having dark circles below eyes are multiple and that's why multimodal approach becomes necessary for the treatment. General treatment consists of: -Iron and B complex vitamins -Apply almond oil around eyes in night -Put slices of cucumber above your eyes daily for 15 minutes -For stress (if present): daily morning walk, meditation and yoga -Proper sleep for 7 to 8 hrs per day, follow sleep hygiene -Plenty of water, fresh fruits, vegetables and salads intake -Using sunscreens: if your skin is sensitive for sunlight If above steps failed (which is less likely), then you should visit dermatologist for treatment options like: Medicines, Chemical peeling and Laser treatment.

Some are turning red and look like they re scabbing over. What could it be? [/INST] Doctor:Hi...by what you quote it seems like the kid has contacted a hand foot mouth disease. There may be some ulcers and similar lesions in the mouth too. Kindly check and if so it is almost confirmed. Usually it is a self limiting disease and trivial viral infection. Do not apply anything on the skin as it can spread the lesions. The best way is to give some over the counter antihistamines before consulting your docotr and in 4-6 weeks you should be expecting a skin peeling too and do not think that it is another unrelated skin disorder.

I tried babylac, econorm with ofloxin metronidazole suspension 0.5ml for 3 days but it didn t helped. I consulted another doctor who has given zinc powder 0.5ml a day for 14 days, enterogemnia 5ml twice daily for 3 days and walamycin suspension 0.5 ml for 4-5 days. I didn t see any result even after using that for 2days as still she passes her stool in green color and watery.My baby weighs 5.2 kg approx My baby activity is normal. Now she has even severe cold.as it s been 2 weeks I am worried a lot.. Please help [/INST] Doctor:HiWelcome to the HCMThe breastfed baby's stools may change in color, and baby may even have an occasional green stool. Consistently green stools, however, may indicate a problem, such as imbalance in foremilk/hindmilk, or sensitivity to something in mom's diet, such as dairy. Green stools do not always indicate a problem.If your babies activity and weight gain is normal, it is very unlikely to have green poops due to some infection. So in my opinion there is no need for any medical treatment. Only check if he is properly breastfed and is getting hind milk properly.Whether your child has a cough, a cold, or the flu, you can try these gentle, effective, and safe home remedies:1.Have a humidifier or a cool-mist vaporizer going in your child's bedroom when she's sleeping, resting, or playing in the room.2. Saline nasal Drops easily available help clear the nose when kids are too young to blow their nose. For babies, a bulb syringe really comes in handy if a stuffy nose interferes with breastfeeding or bottle-feeding. Try using it about 15 minutes beforehand.3. Vapor rubs.If still child continues to have cold, try phenargan syrup 2.5 ml twice daily for3-5 days.In case of any further questions, do call back. </s>

I m on Zolpidium, Tramadol, Hydroxyzine and Omeperozal. My teeth enamel seem to be thining and some teeth are very thin close to my gums. What can it be ? [/INST] Doctor:Hello,People with diabetes are more susceptible to developing infections, as high blood sugar levels can weaken the patient's immune system defenses. So, people with diabetes are at a higher risk for gum problems because of poor blood sugar control. At the other side, as with all infections, serious gum disease may cause blood sugar to rise.In my opinion you may have a periodontal disease .This is the most common dental disease affecting those living with diabetes and your pain can be a sign of mouth problems caused by diabetes.
