Safe Options for Postpartum Contraception

2kids mom is it safe to take EC pils to avoid pregnancy

1 Answer
Dr. Nisarg Patel

Social Obstetrics And Gynecologist

Answered on 14th Aug '24

Emerge­ncy birth control pills block pregnancy after unprotecte­d sex. They delay ovulation, pre­vent fertilization, or stop a fertilize­d egg from implanting. Frequent e­ffects are fee­ling sick, puking, tiredness, and off menstrual cycle­s. EC pills aren't meant for regular use­, only occasional protection emerge­ncies. Don't depend on the­m for constant birth control; that's risky. Consult a gynecologist if you're unsure­ about using them safely.

my belly and my vagina hurt

Female | 18

Urinary tract infections often occur when bacteria enter the bladder and vagina. You might feel pain when peeing, experience lower belly pain, and have the urge to pee frequently. It's important to drink plenty of water and avoid holding in your pee. Sometimes, antibiotics are needed to help treat the infection.

I have very panic itching inside and outside of vagina and also having redness, inflammation, swelling and burning sensation. Also having bad smell from vagina

Female | 28

There's a chance you have a yeast infection. Itching, redness, swelling, and a burning sensation are some of the symptoms. It smells bad because of this reason. So yeast infections are a result of a build-up of yeast in the vagina. The usage of antifungal creams that can be bought at the drugstore would also be beneficial to solve it.

Is levenogestrel effective if we take it 3 days before expected ovulation day

Female | 24

Levonorgestrel, a taken-in time, is a very effective controlling unplanned intercourse, which is the most effective if it is taken after unprotected intercourse but before ovulation. Taking it three days prior may reduce the likelihood of preventing pregnancy, as ovulation could still occur. It's made to stop ovulation and fertilization. However, the time you use it is very important. In case you're thinking about pregnancy problems that might come, look into the possibilities such as emergency contraception. It's also wise to discuss your options with your physician to receive personalized advice.

I am a 40 year old woman who has strange smelling urine and is worried she may be pregnant, have an STD, UTI or other.

Female | 40

Strange-smelling urine can be caused by dehydration, consuming certain foods or drinks, and urinary tract infections (UTIs). If you are sexually active, it is also recommended to get regular screenings for STIs to prevent and detect infections early.

The first day of my last period was 22nd December 2024, and it lasted 4 days. I was supposed to start my next period on 22nd January, 2025. However, I have not had it till today (31st Jan, 2025). I had protected sex on 12th January, in which condoms were used and my partner pulled out at the time of ejaculation. What are the chances I might be pregnant? Should I take a test? Am I just late? History of medical conditions: I have had irregular periods, i.e., a few days late in the past, and my cycles sometimes extended to 39 days. However, this is the longest cycle, and my last two periods have been shorter than usual ( 4 days instead of my usual 5 days). I had intercourse on 12th January with a barrier (condoms) and my partner pulled out at the time of ejaculation. Previous history of current medical complaint: My periods used to be irregular, I have recently gained weight, and I suffer from facial hair growth, etc. I also have taken Plan B pills on 2 separate occasions in the last year. My longest cycle was 39 days, and periods came a couple days after the predicted date. However, this is the longest delay I've experienced in the past. Current medication details: None History of medication for the same complaint: None lab tests done: None Height, Weight Height Weight 5' 3" (160.02 cm) 167 lbs (75.75 kg)

After my last periods I had sexual contact and on my test single line appeared but after 9 hours a faint line at T also appeared what does that mean

Female | 20

A single line means negative pregnancy test. An over-faded line means a positive result. It's best to confirm with the doctor.
