AM BACK

Hi folks. At the outset I must apologise for the disappearing act. The blog was started in earnest but I guess I had not accounted for the time taken by my regular professional work. I must admit that once the initial excitement died down, I would keep putting off the writing on one pretext or the other although the guilt would haunt me every now and then. Even armed with a new year resolution, it took me a good 25 days to get back to writing. I hope I shall be more regular with my writings. Please help by making the site more interactive and write in with as many questions and comments as possible.

Hello Dr.Agrawal,

I wanted to thank you for your blog - I find it to be very informative. I had a thyroidectomy due to papillary carcinoma in 2001. Thus, my endocrinologist keeps me chemically "hyperthyroid" to prevent thyroid / cancerous tissue from growing back. There is a lot of info on the internet about how naturally ocurring hyperthyroidism affects fertility, but virtually no info on how being synthetically hyperthyroid (after full thyroidectomy) affects fertility. I suspect that my chemical hyperthyroidism may be causing me to have a short (defective) luteal phase. Or maybe it's just because now I'm over 33... Either way, I had a baby 18 months ago but I am now having trouble getting pregnant again and my body/cycles seem to have compeltely changed since my first child - short cycles / luteal phase. I would like to have your thoughts.

Hello Doc,

Currently, I am your patient. I have been to other docs as well. But had always failed to get the proper guidance and the answers to my innumerable questions. Thanks a ton for your patience and for being humble!
Please do give information in your blog about pcos and ways to reduce it.... ( apart from taking medicines)like exercise, food habits etc. It would be really informative.

Hello Doctor, I am 24 years old female. We were trying to conceive from 2008 august. we met a doctor around mar 2009. she asked us to try for 3 months. I didn't coneceive. I took FSH,LH and prolactin etc. Hormone test. Doctor said my FSH is low. she asked me to take FSH hormone injection and a follicular study was done. In that my dominant follicle size is 13mm(below normal) means I am not ovulating(or) egg is not release. Then I undergone a laproscopy. Doctor said i have very very early stage of endometriosis and one follicular cysts.she added that because of cysts my follicle didn't grow. So i didn't conceive.
I did lot of surfing in Net. It says if i didn't ovulate i will not get my periods on time.. But not even a single month from last year I had a irregular period. my cycle is 27 to 28 days. If i am not ovulating why did i have a regular period?
