I was recently diagnosed with PMOS (formerly PCOS). I was prescribed to take myo-inositol and Duphaston.

I’ve been setting the inositol aside… Yesterday I have decided to give it a shot since OB-Gyne ko na may sabi. MyPCOS, 2x a day. Found it too expensive but didn’t want to go back to TGP tabs. So I tried Pure Form.

So eto na nga, day 2 ko pa lang. And grabe gutom ko. :( IDK how to manage this lalo na sayang naman since nabawasan na ako ng 4 kilos, ayoko naman ikain. To describe it, it’s the hunger na parang nakakalata feeling. Para akong nagpi-PMS.

Can anyone share how they take theirs?

Hello!

Eto na nga, I had my bloodwork, transvaginal ultrasound. Nagpaconsult na both sa Endocrinologist and OB-Gyne, kasi nahihirapan pumayat since last year at recently, may missed periods.

Before the transvaginal ultrasound, was prescribed by OB Gyne to take Duphaston muna then pills. Ayoko sana kako, kaso sabi nya for 3 months lang naman pero we’ll talk about it after my transv.

At first, she says she assumes I have PCOS na, pero wait namin ang transvaginal ko after my bleed to check lang if may cysts. Recently, nakapagpatransvaginal ultrasound na and normal naman uterus, ovaries, but medyo thin ang lining.

Binasa na nya results, and this time, nagask na muna siya if may baby na ako. I said wala pa, so tinanong nya if gusto ko magpills. I told her ayoko sana doc kasi sayang pumapayat na ako eh… Pumayag naman siya and she just said mag Duphaston nalang ako ulit for 3 months, and Inositol. Pinatuloy nya lang din yung lifestyle changes ko and weight loss journey.

Now yung nireseta nya na Duphaston is good for 3 months (only 10 days every month). Kaso wala na po siyang sinabi if babalik pa ko ulit after 3 months.

Sa mga naka Duphaston dito, did you stop entirely na po ba after that? Thank you sa sasagot.

Missed my period for 3 months so I checked with endocrinologist and OB. Was told by endocrinologist to take Metformin 500mg just once a day (elevated FBS) then OB put me on Duphaston 2x a day just for 5 days to induce period. The rest of my lab works are normal though of course I am obese now.

Duphaston had no side effects for me while taking it, but right after going off it, I have been experiencing my usual PMS symptoms— mild sore breasts, cravings, nausea (especially first week off-Duphaston). Today is my 14th day off and still no period. On my usual cycle, the sore breasts only comes off once there is bleeding, the closer the period, the more sore my breasts until it’s off.. Now there is still no bleeding so it’s just more sore than the first week.

This was my first time taking Duphaston.
Though prior to getting missed periods… I was sick for 2 month due to an infection (upper respiratory tract infection). It lasted two months as the initial GP did not prescribed me antibiotics right away. My stress was so high in those two months as I was dealing with cough, colds, pain, and some fevers, and health anxiety caused me to seek for more specialists (like cardio) but was cleared.

Other changes in my life includes heavy lifting on gym.

I have a flight soon for a vacation, so going back to my OB Gyne might just happen after the trip. Do I ask for another set of Duphaston or wait more?

So, this business has been in my mind for a long time but really curious on how it’s done. I have read or met some people who agreed on subleasing sa property owners…

Someone offered this to us, but middleman/agent kasi and hindi property owner; won’t connect us as well directly to owners probably for his commission.

Anyone here who had to deal with an agent instead of direct sa owner? How was it?

Paano kayo nakakameet ng mga tao na papayag sa subleasing? Saan niyo sila namimeet?

What are the early steps you did for this kind of business?

Thank you po sa mga sasagot! Asking these questions kasi mukhang wala na patutunguhan cookie business ko, at until now hirap makahanap ng work since nalay-off.

How do we deal with it when we have to manage our blood sugar?

Hi! Curious lang if meron bang hair salons dito na nago-offer ng digital perm?

My favorite salon Dear Self in Bacoor is really good pero wala pa silang digital perm.

I attempted one time in TJ in SM Bacoor, the receptionist is accusing me of having a treated hair kaya never again (this is another story).

Today is my day 2 after the last pill, and I think what I have been experiencing are the side effects.

I feel normal during the 5 days of taking it, but after the last pill, I experienced headache and nausea the next day. Then today (Day 2), nausea again and I feel gassy.

Anyone who had the side effects after taking it din? Ok naman ako ngayon though I admit, yesterday medyo nagpanic ako kasi antagal ko nang di nakakafeel nang headache.

3rd time in KL in a few months but haven’t really explored places outside of it.

Can anyone suggest places atleast 1-2 hours away, public transportation friendly, and day-tour friendly?

Husband and I don’t really ride public transportation in our country, but would alway love to do so when we’re out! Thanks’

Hello!

My OB-Gyne prescribed me to take Duphaston 2x a day for 5 days to induce period. However, sa mga nababasa ko, 10 days!

Meron ba dito na for 5 days lang?

Sorry if dumb question. Pero curious lang ako if possible pa din ba maging medical VA (as long as magti-train or learn certain short courses) if wala namang medical background?

My bachelor’s degree is non-medical, my career from the start until I worked as a freelancer (SMM) is non-medical. Now with all these AI taking over, I am thinking of leaving na the SMM.

Thank you!

So, it’s only been a week since I was told I’m pre-diabetic (5.7). When I didn’t know that, I notice how sleepy I get after eating, even just black coffee with 2 tbsp lactose-free milk (no sugar).

Determined to lower and eventually reverse it, I did some changes. Google here, watch reels, and read tips from other people with the same condition. One thing that I kept seeing was walk before meals, or lunges, or any movement with effort after meals.

It may be too early to speak, but since doing it, I no longer feel sleepy after eating.

After a meal, I march, do hops, squats, lunges, dance… Any movement I can do just for 10 minutes. At night, I walk right after dinner with my husband for 10 minutes as well. I notice I haven’t been sleepy for the day.

I still have so much to do and learn, and I just want to share this.

Hello po sa mga may Maxicare HMO dito!

I was able to book an OB-Gyne through Maxicare in one of their PCC branch, but I’m curious if during that consultation, pwede ba magpa-transv agad or that’s another booking pa after the consultation?

Ayoko na kasi magpabalik balik kasi when you book an appointment, usually 1-2 weeks pa available. I’m thinking if ganun ang case, magpapaonline referral na ako for trans v then meet my OB sa appointment ko next week?

Sorry this is my first OB with Maxicare kasi.
I’ve seen endo before this muna and took 2 weeks for initial consultation, blood work, and follow up kasi di naman lagi available ang mga specialist.
