OBGYNDoc
Minneapolis, MN
Female, 36
I am a practicing Obstetrician and Gynecologist, providing care for women in all stages of life. Approximately half of my practice consists of pregnancy-related care, including routine prenatal care, high risk obstetrics, and delivering babies at all hours of the day. The other half consists of gynecologic care, which ranges from routine annual check-ups to contraception and menopause. I perform many surgeries, including laparoscopies and hysterectomies.
These results depend on what type of symptoms you are having. If you are having hot flashes, night sweats and vaginal dryness, it could mean that you are menopausal and your ovaries are no longer functioning at the level they were when you were premenopausal. If you are not having those symptoms, it could mean that you were near your ovulation time when the bloodwork was drawn. It is difficult to interpret the results without a clinical history. You should discuss it further with your physician.

You should speak to your physician about this. Sex can trigger mild cramps, but if they are severe or persisting, then you should discuss this with your doctor.

The answer depends on how your due date was calculated. If it was based on an early ultrasound, then the dating is accurate up to +/- 5 days. With irregular periods and PCOS, timing of ovulation can be erratic, but will typically still fall within the 5 day window of ultrasound dating.

Only time will tell. It is difficult to be patient at a time like this, but there is no way to know what the ultrasound will show in a week.

Soy products, when taken in moderation, are safe in pregnancy. Theoretically, however, soy products can have hormonal-like effects and have the potential to cause harmful effects to the fetus if taken in very high quantities. The difficulty with assessing vitamins and supplements is that the actual amounts of each substance is hard to interpret, and are often not regulated by the FDA. There is no recommendation to take soy supplements in pregnancy.

The due date is calculated 40 weeks after your last menstrual period, so the time of conception is approximately 14 days after that date, depending on your cycles.
