Am I Pregnant Despite Negative Tests and Ovulation?

I am 31 yo female, I have irregular period, got checked for pcos amd came out negative. In the past month I've been doin ovulation test daily at the same time, and since 16 days ago it started coming positive as I'm ovulating. And it's been positive for the whole 16 days, including today. I've been taking few pregnancy urine tests, one in the lab and the rest are at home, they all came back negative, no actual level on the urine lab, and I also been spotting/light bleeding last week while ovulating for about 3 days. All these three things are kinds going against each other and i don't know what to think about all of it. Me and my partner are having unprotected sex, we trying to get pregnant, but the pregnancy tests keep coming up negative. I am just very confused and don't know what to think. Thank you for your help

Continuous positive ovulation tests can indicate sustained luteinizing hormone levels but may not confirm pregnancy, especially with negative urine tests. Spotting during ovulation can occur and is often normal. Irregular cycles can complicate timing and hormone levels, affecting results. Since you’re trying to conceive, consider tracking your cycle closely and possibly consulting a gynecologist. They can offer further evaluation and guidance tailored to your circumstances.

Hello, I'm 21 years old and my weight is 65 kgs with 5,3 height. And my main concern is my period flow is very less from past 5-6 months . I don't have any other health issues or major symptoms. Also my periods are regular like I'm having periods every month on time but the flow is very less in comparative to 6 months back which was normal. In 10-12 hours my one pad is not even half covered.

Female | 21

Your period flow has become lighter over the last few months. This can be caused by various factors such as stress, weight changes, or hormonal imbalances. You may have to eat a well-balanced diet, keep active, and manage stress. If the problem persists, discuss it with a gynecologist.

I was wondering what a septated adnexal cyst is and what kind of symptoms you can get from it. I had a partial hysterectomy about 14 years ago. I have been having stomach issues so my Doctor ordered a CT scan and it showed up on the scan.

Female | 45

A septated adnexal cyst is a fluid-filled sac with walls inside it. A hysterectomy can cause this to happen near the ovaries. You might not feel anything or could have a belly ache, bloating, or discomfort. Sometimes they can go away, but other times a gynecologist might suggest more tests or surgery.

I am 19 years female and have a vaginal gas,I need help it's very painful

Female | 19

If you're experiencing vaginal gas, don't worry. It may feel uncomfortable, with pressure or pain in your lower abdomen or back, but it's generally not a serious issue. This can happen when air gets trapped, often due to things like sexual activity, certain foods, or even normal body functions. To help relieve the discomfort, try pelvic floor stretches and avoid foods that may worsen the condition, such as carbonated drinks. If the pain persists or becomes more severe, it's a good idea to consult a gynecologist for personalized advice.

Doc, is it possible for me to get pregnant if I got pregnant on April 12 then we had sex on April 21 and now I have brown spotting that happens on the due date of my period, what does that mean?

Female | 20

It is highly unlikely to get pregnant just nine days after conceiving on April 12. Brown spotting around the expected period date can have various causes unrelated to pregnancy, such as hormonal changes. However it's best to consult a your doctor for personalized evaluation and advice.

I had unprotected sex almost immediately after my periods ended. (After 2 days). I took unwanted 72 right after the unprotected sex. Is it safe? It's been 18 days since then

Female | 21

Taking Unwanted 72 after unprotected sex can help in case of pregnancy. It might have to be mentioned that young people should take it within 72 hours. Since the usual menstruation time has passed and in the meantime, you've already got your period, the symptoms you may develop are mostly related to the bleeding. Spotting or changes in the menstrual cycle are the main issues after taking the pill.

Missing period this month please help me

Female | 21

A missing period could be due to many things such as stress, changes in weight, or hormonal imbalances. Check if you've been extra stressed or experienced weight changes lately. If so, this might be the reason. Try to calm down, have a balanced diet, and exercise. If this continues to occur, consult a gynecologist.

Female | 26

Brown discharge and spotting blood can happen after a vaginal infection. It happens to everybody and is normally not very serious. The medicine your doctor gave you is meant to help with the infection. You can go ahead and insert it as prescribed. Be sure to read the directions properly. If symptoms continue or become worse, let your gynecologist know.

Having sex on your period's 6th day is generally safe for most women, but it can sometimes increase the risk of infections. If you experience any unusual symptoms, it's best to visit a gynecologist for proper advice and care.

She is having too much facial hair and body hair.. she's 15 but she doesn't have even a little breasts growth..but her thighs and hips are really fat.

Female | 15

Excessive hair growth on face and body can be a symptom of hormonal imbalances as in the case of PCOS. Pubertal development may also be delayed in this condition. You should see a gynecologist or an endocrinologist for further evaluation and management of PCOS.

Female | 16

It is not recommended that you delay your periods as it can be harmful to your health. Attempts to control your menstrual cycle can result in hormonal disbalance and hence irregular periods. Talk to your gynecologist
