    Hi everyone, hope you are all well. It’s been a while, I know! 😆 I made this video to address some of the misinformation I’ve seen surrounding period blood colours. It’s been a labour of love; I’ve poured hours upon hours into what you see here in it’s seven minute form. I hope you enjoy it, gain a better understanding of period blood colours or at least learn something new.

    Thank you for reminding ladies that it’s good to pay attention to what comes out of you! Education is a key to health. 14 years ago my period discharge began to look strange to me. Pieces of tissue mixed in with watery blood that was a funny pink. I went to my Gynecologist who said it was good that I noticed. I had stage 1 endometrial cancer. Had surgery. That took care of it. Hurray. Thanks again.

    This conversation should totally be had in my country, Kenya. There's a lot of period stigma and putting the conversation on the table has been so hard - the stigma is so much so that many young girls drop out of school out of embarrassment and period poverty, like, they cannot afford pads or relevant alternatives consistently, (in one extreme case in mid 2022, a 14yo committed suicide because boys and male teachers in her school saw a stain on her dress, she ran home and hung herself leaving a note that she couldn't go back to that school cos she can't face her peers as they saw her blood!) Some in the rural are so misinformed by culture, they believe they should get married when they first see their menstrual period as they are now 'full women', and they actually drop out of school to get married. Feb 2023, a female legislator (Member of Parliament) literally had to get dramatic and go to parliament in "stained" white trouser suit, somewhat picketing in a silent way, just to make a point and bring the conversation to the table... Even then, her female counterparts (especially), as well as the male, castigated her and I was shocked!
    I am loving every bit of this discussion and looking forward to more.❤️

    I’m an OBGYN ultrasound tech and I wish all my patients could see this.
    Can’t tell you how many patients we get for ultrasound bc of the period being a different color or consistency or pausing for a day then ending brown or starting brown.
    Even before becoming a tech I had this and always instinctively knew it was normal. Just made sense. When blood is exposed to the air it turns brown. I never once worried about it or went to the doctor for it. But sooooo many women do!
    I’m glad to see channels like this educating women.

    So I don’t know if the Dr herself will see this or not but I wanted to let her know just how much I feel she’s helping not only myself but others like me. My mother was not one to explain my body or how it worked. I’m a month shy of my 34th birthday and only just a few months ago learned why I “couldn’t” urinate with a tampon in….. I’m too well endowed and need adjusting.
    As a grown woman asking questions that many children know the answer to, it’s embarrassing to the point I just don’t ask. Google doesn’t give the kind of answers that are actually helpful and I feel lost.
    In just 4 videos you’ve taught me more than my 33 years and lifetime of education and doctor visits taught me. I can’t thank you enough.

    Re: Purple stains on menstrual pads, it could be "leakage" from the urethra after having eaten red beets in the days prior.
    I had slight yellow "leakage" a long time ago on my menstrual pads, before I started doing exercises to strengthen my pelvic floor.
    And after I ate red beets for two days in a row, both my urine and my stools turned dark purple for a few days.
    If you put both together... Of course it wouldl be rare!

I wanted to know do hot flushes mean low estrogen ? Because my periods since I was young used to come on time so how would it be low estrogen ?

    I was curious about a few things, and was wondering if you could do a video on that if possible. I don't really know if you take requests...
    But if you can could you please do a video on cysts, fibroids and endometriosis & the menstrual cycle; do any of these things affect periods in any way, such as blood flow, how heavy/light it is or period cramps, etc.

    Dr Simi thank you so very much for this insightful detailed information. I love you, it's really been a while ♥️🍜
    Am a virgin at 29 single from birth but my periods have been very painful even before I started mensuration that was when I was fourteen the sign that I was going to start periods was a very sharp painful experience. My periods are regular though just painful and I do see these clots alot. Lately I experience this intense fever before my periods starts it's not easy, it's like when one has Malaria the fever is intense.
    Should I get concerned?
    I have a question too, what causes painful ovulation and how can I stop it because pain blocks don't work for me. It's just too much😭😭 sometimes I can't even move my legs then after that egg white like fluid comes out I get a relief ☺️

    • @anneliesehills4595
      @anneliesehills4595 Рік тому +4

      Painful period could be caused by ovarian cyst or endometriosis. I used to experience painful periods that would result to me vomiting, feeling feverish, stooling, migraine and not feeling my legs. I suffered it for years before going for a pelvic ultra sound scan that showed I had ovarian cyst. I saw a gynaecologist afterwards. The rest is history. I suggest you go to a diagnostic center and do an ultrasound scan.

    • @Sdority905
      @Sdority905 Рік тому

      You are right to ask this bc Periods are not supposed to be painful. While painful periods are common, it is a sign that something is off balance, either in your hormone balance or gut health (which can effect reproductive system).
      I took a nutritionist who specializes in women's hormones and changed my diet, started taking supplements and cycle syncing, and I can say that my PMS and period symptoms have decreased tremendously. It's amazing how everything is connected.

    Dear Dr.simi
    Your a blessing to all women,especially ones like me, where taking or being taught the basics was frowned upon and left you feeling disgusted because as your girl/ female you should have automatically knew these things. Since my very first period i had no guidance or advice in what i was,meant or supposed to do, what is normal along with now what do i do? I have always had emotional trauma beginning with my first period because i had to just 'bleed and get on with it' and do what i could do to get through it! I was young then and scared, didnt want to be a girl...there many young women out there who need you in there lives,your knowledge is freedom from feeling embarrassed and alone. God bless you and thank you ❤

    This video is quite informative. I'm a bit curious about this issue. So what are the likely outcomes of a lady in her mid twenties who has heavy bleeding and regular clotting (like a huge lump) especially on the third day of her period? (The lump comes out once after which the period ends)

    I have heavy periods and very painful periods. Amongst this, I feel exhausted, I have big clots, and I now get migraines. I have spoken to a gynecologist about this...she told me it was normal (she was also trying to push the contraceptive that looks like a T on me too). I told her I'm concerned I've been living with endometriosis my whole life. She just kept repeating that what I was going through is normal. I don't think it's normal at all. I'm very upset that nobody is taking me seriously. Oh and to make it all worse, I apparently, have a 3.5 cm cyst in my uterus. But they cannot surgically remove it unless it's 5 cm and because I'm in my early 30s....Can I just elect to have a hysterectomy? Because I'm really tired of feeling unwell, and being told because I'm young and might want more babies I shouldn't do surgery. Even though, this is my body and my health. I live in Canada too.

    • @Iksura2ne1
      @Iksura2ne1 Рік тому +2

      Hi Brinny, I have been where you are. It took me years to find a doctor. It's not normal. You can have a laparoscopy done to remove the cyst (depending on its location, hopefully it is not embedded in your uterus) instead of a hysterectomy. Changes to your diet (less meat, more veggies, less sugar), exercise, and medication like Orlissa and Slynd can help. An OBGYN that has the credentials FACOOG and specializes in treating Endometriosis and PCOS is your best bet.

    Hi Doctor Simi!! Your videos have helped me out so much. I've had a question for so long, I got my period at the "normal" age (13 for me) but then after that I rarely got it, (I'm 16 now) last year I dont even get it at all. I'm planning to see my doctor but I'm not sure if its something that I should really worry about.

    • @merrymermaid
      @merrymermaid Рік тому +2

      i think you should see a doctor about it, losing your period can be a sign that you’re not getting enough nutrients for your body to support it. in this case you just need to plan your diet a bit more to make sure you’re getting everything you need :) it could be something more serious though, so i would see a doctor if i were you! better to get it sorted out now while you are young
