Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi I have been experiencing some strange symptoms lately. I had my period a week ago but it was abnormally light for what I usually had. I only had to use one tampon per day. I have also been experiencing nausea and vomiting and a loss of appetite. Every time I eat I feel very sick. I have also been experiencing indigestion and heart burn.
