Hello! Can anyone recommend an OB-GYN on NowServing who accepts OFWs? I have thyroid issues, so my doctor advised me to consult an OB-GYN with a subspecialty in endocrinology. I also struggle with PTSD and GAD. I'm not sure if it affects my period, but I would love to find someone patient, kind, and easy to talk to, as I get quite anxious around doctors. Thank you so much!

How much did the surgery cost in total, including the hospital bill, professional fees, laboratory tests, and other expenses? How much was covered by Intellicare, and how much did you have to pay out of pocket? I’m trying to get an estimate and prepare financially. Any experiences or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi! Is it okay to test even if I’m only 9DPO? My period is not late yet. I need help Thank you

Hello! Looking po ako ng recommendation ng OB-Gyne sa St. Luke’s QC that accepts Intellicare, preferably po sana yung meron na rin machine for ultrasound sa clinic nya para in case needed.

I have PCOS and planning to get pregnant in the next few years kaya gusto ko na po magpaalaga sa OB. Yung approachable po sana and hindi nagmamadali during consultations.

Thank you po!

I was diagnosed with PCOS/PMOS and was prescribed Yaz pills. the first pack was good, nothing really changed but nung second pack, naglabasan lahat ng pimples ko and mind you, theyre big, cystic, and hurts like hell. consulted an OB because of recurring acne pero di ko inexpect to breakout like this, as in super lala.

have any of you girls experienced this? totoo ba na it will get better on the third pack? i’m also on tret + azelaic for years and parang hindi na siya nag work this time. lowkey regret taking it kasi graduation ko na in 2 weeks and i don’t have the confidence to go na 😔

Any recommendations na OB sa St. Luke's BGC po specialized on PCOs and endometriosis. As advised ng present OB ko since Ob sono sya. He wants me to have a second opinion dahil gusto nya ma confirm ang diagnosis ko. Nag normal po kasi 2nd transV ko pero yong symptoms ng endometriosis still persist for almost a year. Thank you in advance!

So me M (26) and my GF (24) are both working and we just had done PIV. Very brief, very short, I would say about maybe 15 seconds or less. I made sure to wipe any precum before putting it in. But she has PCOS, and is saying that it's a very low risk, but I am panicking, based on what happened.

- I wiped any precum before putting it in

- Very brief PIV

- pulled out afterwards. few minutes time and ejaculated outside.

She told me it's a very low risk and that it was safe. Plus, it had been 3 weeks after her period. She stopped taking pills around May 28th. Should we consider buying pills already or just to wait it out till her period comes. Her period usually comes around 2nd week of every month, between day 8 - 15.

hello! nagkaron po kami ng sexual intercourse ng partner ko yesterday (aug 29) and nakalimutan ko po i-ask sa obgyne ko today (online consultation) if pwede magtake ng BCP starting today. Pwede po kaya? or need mag emergency pill muna bago ako magstart sa BCP?

May nakatry na po ba magpa Serum Pregnancy sa Hi-Precision Alabang? And how much po binayaran niyo? It's for employment kasi.

Edit: That's supposed to be HCG, not HGB. Dunno what happened 😂

Hindi pa po ako nakakablik sa OB ko kasi holiday today. Is this a case for concern po? Should I recommend laparoscopy/hysteroscopy to my OB po if ever di po sya mag reco nun procedure? I have recurring symptoms of abnormal bleeding and also diagnosed with adenomyosis.

Hello, naraspa po ako a month ako dahil sa thick endo lining and abnormal uterine bleeding.
2 weeks after nakuha ko yung results and mataas yung estrogen lo but benign naman. After nun pinagprogesterone na agad ako for 14 days kaso grabe yung bleeding para sa kin (medium flow, na maraming clots). Sabi ni Doc possible yun na yung mens ko so now to lessen it naka Althea pills ako. Kaso para akong umiihi ng clots.

Normal po ba ito? Natatakot ako kasi simula procedure 2 days lang ako nawalan ng “mens” tapos meron agad ako nung nagprogesterone.

Nakamagnacarta leave ako and 60 days naman yun, kaso pinag iisipan pa ni Doc kung extend niya yung 30 days kong bed rest.

Need tour thoughts. May naka experience na po ba ng ganitong case?

I came from a family reunion, and my uncle was shaming me the entire time, like why haven't I lost the weight and I explained that I am a student and barely have any time for exercises like running and no money for the supplements needed for managing my PCOS, but he just said I am lazy and I should wake up earlier to be able to get some running. I understand that but I really am busy, I wake up at 3 am to do my chores and prepare to head to school l, then I have an hour and 30 minute commute to school then I have classes til 6:30 pm then another hour and 30 minute commute back home, then I study for a bit then head to bed. And that is my everyday routine, I already ate less, changed my diet and saved up for the MYPICOS powder and I haven't changed at all. I understand I don't fit the beauty standards and I hate it myself but I really am not able to fit exercise into my current schedule and I feel so pressured from people to lose the weight, I guess I have to sacrifice school so I can start exercising

My uncle kept telling me I'm lazy because his wife was able to lose weight, but she had the support needed like an actual treadmill and complete supplements.

Im curious kasi im trying to conceive. Meron na ba dito? Any feedback and idea please. Thank you!!

Hello everyone.

Posting kasi di ko na alam huhu. May OB said to remove asap my cyst. Its been a year 4cm lang to, non cancerous. hindi na ako nakabalik since nawalan din ako work. Now, lang ulit nakabalik, 8cm na daw sya

Nasa hiring process pa kami for my permanent position at government. I cant lose this opportunity.

Nagpacheck talaga me coz ang bloated ng puson ko pag nakaupo. Ayoko na din abalahin si mama kasi si papa stroke na at sya nag aalaga sakanya.

Should i get 2nd opinion? Hoping for your inputs. Im so anxious. Also ano po ba ang best HMO for this, im in bicol

hi! im 24 sexually active one partner, and i just finished my ape for my new work and nagappear results ko sa urinalysis that my pus cells are above 30 (ang normal is 0-5) so it means may uti ako. but recurring ang uti ko even if i drink a lot of water + normal naman daw iba kong results.

also i think i have bv because of the white smelly discharge i have and unusual na siya since andami and hindi naman ganoon before. nacacause ba ng bv ang uti?

should i buy metronidazole?

(p.s thats my convo w my mom after i sent her my results)

Hello, we're having a thesis paper about PCOS and we want to ask here whether you know any PCOS pages or organization here in the philippines. We're looking for an expert in their field of social media postings, contents, and other social media management. (Branding manager, soocmed manager e.g.)

Thankyou so much po!

Good day po, wanna ask lang po sana if mas worth it ba na mag avail ng Maxicare Prima Consult+ if want po magpa consult + prescribe medication regarding my pcos?

I've been searching clinics and doctors po kasi and parang mas worth it na mag avail nalang nitong Maxicare Prima Consult+ because of unli consultation and follow up check ups na po?

I'm still a student po kasi and di ko kaya na magbayad ng 500+ or 1k for initial consultation then another bayad nanaman if mag follow up check up.

So naisip ko po na baka mas worth it pag nag avail ako nito?

Please share your thoughts and experiences po. Thank you so much!

For context, I did lab tests and TVUS last June 26. I haven’t gotten back to my OB since. I’m planning on rescheduling this Sept. Will my OB make me re-do my tests or not? Thanks.

Dont know how to feel when doctor told me I have PCOS. Regular naman period ko and all. I was prescribed pills for this. But parang gusto ko magpa second opinion, after a few months. Any advice?

Also, Binabasa ko kasi yung TVS results ko and noticed na "Anteverted" yung findings sa uterus ko. I searched kung ano meaning nun and yung pwesto pala sya ng uterus.

Pero curious lang ako, sa final diagnosis nakalagay na "normal sized retroverted uterus" could it be a typo since anteverted naka-indicate sa taas? Hindi naman din ako marunong magbasa nung tvs mismo so im quite confused.

f22 here, planning to have a checkup sa nearest obgyn. my cycle length for the past years were 30-37 days (is that normal?) pero last month was like 47 days. what im worrying about is the cycle length, acne, mood changes, and very very painful menstruation like there are times that i cannot move due to cramps and infuriating back pain.

question, what are some tests na iaask ng ob on my first checkup? i really need to know to prepare financially. gusto ko kasi malaman para alam ko ang sasabihin ko sa GP since i am about to work na.

Pleaseeee i need your suggestions po!!!

Hello po, normal pa ba tong nagsusuka?

Been using Althea since 2022 for PCOS, nireseta ng OB ko noon. Nung nagkapandemic, nagstart mag irregular ang mens ko tas umabot sa point na 1 year mahigit na kong di niregla kaya nag pa check na ko sa OB, tapos althea ang nireseta para daw reglahin ako. Di ko naman naexperience ang vomiting noon. Actually, wala akong nafeel na side effects noon maliban sa sobrang bilis ko tumaba from 62kg to 78kg real quick sa loob lng ilang months pero nag regulate regla ko kaya tinigil ko sya. After nun, nagdiet ako ng malala. OMAD and take ng Inositol, after a month nakabawas ako ng 5kg.

Ngayon, nagtake ako ulit ng Althea kasi mag almost 1 year na ulit akong walang menstruation. Pero grabe naman ang pagsusuka ko. As in every kain talaga ako nagsusuka. Di naman ako pwedeng buntis kasi di nga ako dinadatnan. Kaya hindi ko mainom ng dire-diretso yung pills ngayon, like every other day ang inom ko kasi nagsusuka talaga ako.

Hi girlies! 🫶 Just saw this on Kindred’s Instagram and thought I’d share in case anyone’s interested!

I tried applying. There’s a ₱300 payment, but it’s refundable naman daw. 👀

(Although may nakita rin akong horror stories about Kindred 😭 but fingers crossed 🤞 Sana okay naman ’to!)
