DR Archana Bajaj Good Afternoon, My daughter aged 15 has irregular periods, how can we correct it. Dis Pelvis scans couple of times and all seems to be fine. She is 5.3" of height and weighs around 66kgs.

Ans: Menstrual irregularity at age 15. It is very common to have irregular paid periods in the initial years of menopause anarchy, so having irregular periods. For the first 2 or 3 years, when the period when monarchy begins is quite common. If the ultrasound of the pelvis is fine and the hormonal assessment is normal, like thyroid, prolactin levels, insulin levels are all fine and the FSH, LH levels are fine, it should not be a cause of concern. I do not think regulating the menses menses at such an early age is recommended. However, since she is 53 and ways 66 kilos, maybe optimising her weight by about 2 or 3 kilos might be helpful. Other than that, lifestyle modification, regular exercise, eating a judiciously avoiding junk food, or decreasing the amount of sweets and junk Maida. Potatoes, sugar, rice, EC may help, and increasing proteins in the diet may be helpful. Other than that, if the hemoglobin levels and hormonal profile is normal, I don't think it's a huge cause for concern.

She will be having physical, cognitive and psychosocial changes. She is bound to have mood swings, irritation, change in behavior. During this phase they are in establishment of own identity, autonomy, sexuality. Not going to school can happen cause if awkwardness in periods, scare of staining clothes, not able to perform activities as routine due to pain or bleeding.
All these are common behavioral changes in most teenagers.

Hello sir, my son's rank in jee mains rank 25156 he got admission in electrical in silchar in josaa round, not in csab 1st round he got mechanical in kurushetra nit and he got admission in bits pillani rajeshthan for manufacturing engineering sir we are confused that whether we have to wait for 2nd and 3rd rounds in csab or he has good prospect in bits ,please guide us for good prospect for my son
Ans: Your son’s admission options include Electrical Engineering at NIT Silchar through JoSAA, Mechanical Engineering at NIT Kurukshetra via CSAB Round 1, and Manufacturing Engineering at BITS Pilani. NIT Silchar’s Electrical branch shows consistent placement rates around 80% with top recruiters like Amazon, offering average packages near Rs 12 LPA. NIT Kurukshetra’s Mechanical branch has an approximate 80% placement rate, with major industrial recruiters and average packages in the Rs 7.5-8.2 LPA range. BITS Pilani, known for its exceptional academic environment and strong industry connections, particularly excels in placements with nearly 90-100% of students placed, offering average packages in the range of Rs 18-20 LPA. Its manufacturing engineering branch benefits from this robust ecosystem despite lack of specific branch-wise data. Considering academic reputation, faculty quality, infrastructure, placement opportunities, and alumni network, BITS Pilani provides the most promising overall prospects. NIT Silchar and NIT Kurukshetra have good regional standing and opportunities but comparatively moderate placement outcomes.

The recommendation is to prioritize admission at BITS Pilani for Manufacturing Engineering due to superior placement outcomes, institutional prestige, and strong industry ties. If BITS is not preferred or feasible, NIT Silchar (Electrical) is a better option than NIT Kurukshetra (Mechanical). Waiting for further CSAB rounds is only advisable if aiming for significantly better branches or colleges aligned with your son’s rank. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!
