Thanks for the wishes and happy for your oral care.
But, sometimes you need to visit the dentist and get it physically examined as there would be many reasons for swollen gums.

Hi! Thank you for your kind Doctor’s Day wish!
The swelling appears to be due to calculus buildup causing gum inflammation.
Please get a deep scaling done and use chlorhexidine mouthwash twice daily for a week.
Also, follow the correct brushing technique.
For delayed periods, a gynecologist consultation is advised.
