In an emergency: if you have heavy bleeding, severe abdominal pain, fits or fainting, do not spend time reading the website or waiting for a serial. Go to the emergency department of the nearest hospital straight away, or call the national emergency service on 999.
The articles, videos, photos and FAQs on this website are made to raise general awareness about obstetrics and gynaecology. Please read the points below carefully.
For general information only
Everything on the site is general information. It is not diagnosis, treatment, medicine or surgical advice for any individual patient. The same condition can show up differently in different people, and treatment decisions depend on your history, examination and the tests you need.
No doctor–patient relationship
Reading the articles, watching videos, sending the booking form or messaging on WhatsApp does not create a doctor–patient relationship with Dr. Sharmin Afroz. That relationship begins with an in-person consultation at the chamber.
Do not treat yourself
- Do not start, stop or change the dose of any medicine because of an article or video.
- Hormones, contraception, pregnancy medicines and infertility treatment must be taken under a doctor’s supervision.
- Do not use someone else’s prescription for yourself.
- If anything here seems different from what your own doctor has advised, talk to your doctor.
Signs you should not ignore
Get medical care quickly if you notice any of the following. This list is not complete; if something feels unusual or worrying, see a doctor.
- Heavy bleeding, or bleeding that will not stop
- Severe or sudden abdominal pain
- In pregnancy: severe headache, blurred vision, fits, or swelling of the hands and face
- In pregnancy: waters breaking, or the baby clearly moving less
- High fever with foul-smelling discharge or shivering
- Breathing difficulty, chest pain or fainting
Pregnancy and reproductive health
Articles on pregnancy care, infertility, periods and hormones, and surgery can help you prepare and ask the right questions, but they do not replace regular check-ups, ultrasounds and tests. In pregnancy, talk to your doctor before taking any medicine or making major changes to exercise or diet.
Surgery and treatment results
The results of laparoscopy or any other surgery or treatment depend on age, general health and the type of condition. Benefits, recovery times or success rates mentioned on the site are general guidance, not a guarantee for anyone. The doctor will explain the benefits and risks of each procedure in person.
Limits of the information
- Medicine keeps changing. We try to keep articles up to date, but cannot guarantee every detail always reflects the latest research.
- Videos and articles simplify topics to make them easier to understand, so not every detail is included.
- We are not responsible for information on other websites that the site links to.
Contact by WhatsApp and phone
WhatsApp, phone and social media are used only for serials and general enquiries. Diagnosis, prescriptions or emergency care are not possible through these channels.
