I am 17 yr old and my period flow is heavy and thick how can I overcome this problem and I also gets white discharge like periods and it causes me back pain I have already taken medicines for this but that doesn't help me ?

Ans: Thick menstrual flow is usually not a cause for concern heavy flow if your periods last for more than 7 days or if they come at very short intervals, or if you need to use more than 3 to 4 pads in a day and is accompanied by clothing. And there is a fall in hemoglobin, then the menstrual flow needs to be regulated. There are several medications which can be used to regulate the menstrual flow. Tranexamic acid along with mefenamic acid can help both in menstrual pain and in decreasing the blood flow, and the use of progesterone and contraceptive pills can also help in regulating the cycles and decreasing the flow. But this is only to be taken under supervision and if it is really needed.

I have two options for my son. B.Tech ECE in Jaypee Noida and B.Tech ECE with Minor in Comp Sc. from VIT Vellore. Which should I prefer basis placement and academic quality?
Ans: Mukul Sir, Jaypee Institute of Information Technology, Noida offers B.Tech in Electronics & Communication Engineering with a 98% placement rate for ECE over the past three years, branch-specific offers at 98% participation by core recruiters, and a median package of ?6.50 LPA from 184 offers to 188 eligible students in 2024, while holding a NIRF Engineering rank of 101–150. VIT Vellore’s B.Tech ECE with a minor in Computer Science enrolls 480 students, achieves overall 68%–72% placement rates in EEE (similar branch metrics), and contributes to the university’s 95% average placements across all engineering disciplines, supported by 867 recruiters and median packages near ?9.90 LPA, with NIRF Engineering rank #11. Jaypee Noida’s focused core-branch recruitment and higher branch-wise participation offer strong ECE outcomes, whereas VIT Vellore provides broader academic depth through a minor, superior institutional ranking, and consistent overall placement density. Recommendation: Opt for Jaypee Noida ECE if prioritizing branch-specific placement strength and core electronics opportunities; choose VIT Vellore ECE with CSE minor for higher institutional ranking, wider recruiter pool, and interdisciplinary skill development. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!
