Am I pregnant if my period is 6 days late?

Patient's Query

Am scared that I might be pregnant after 4 ceasarean...planned of going for birth control this month of march,and am asthmatic,I have ulcer and hernia as well... my period is 6 days late....My last period was 6 of February which ended on the 9th so am expecting this month but don't know what's the cause for the delay... Could the delay mean am pregnant?

Answered by Dr. Swapna Chekuri

It's understandable to feel anxious about a potential pregnancy, especially with your medical history. A late period can result from various factors, including stress, hormonal changes, or underlying health conditions like asthma or ulcers. While pregnancy is a possibility, it's important to note that not all delays indicate that. I recommend taking a home pregnancy test for clarity. Should the test be positive or if your period doesn’t arrive soon, please consult your gynecologist. They can offer personalized guidance, considering your unique health circumstances and help you explore birth control options safely.

I got my last period on jan 2 and have been having unprotected sex since then today i took home pregnancy test and line at C is dark and line at T is faint also having brownish and red blood

Female | 23

Depending on your symptoms, it could be an implantation bleeding. However, to confirm pregnancy and rule out other potential issues, you should go see a gynecologist. I would suggest a visit to a specialist in obstetrics and gynecology for assessment and appropriate treatment.

People also ask Is it normal for milk to come out of breast when not pregnant?

Female | 25

No it is not normal. This is called galactorrhea and is due to a variety of causes such as hormonal imbalances, side effects of medications or other specific medical conditions. It is recommended to visit a endocrinologist to get the correct treatment and diagnosis.

During intercourse our contraceptive method was broked then I consume unwanted 72 within 1.5 hours after few days i had withdrawal bleeding Is there any chance of pregnancy still?

Female | 20

Did you experience unexpected bleeding after using Unwanted 72? That's a good sign! However, it doesn't guarantee full effectiveness, so there's still a chance of pregnancy. Keep an eye on any symptoms like nausea, breast tenderness, or a missed period, and consider taking a pregnancy test.

I had an unprotected sex but release outside its a first time and i am worried

Male | 29

It still carries a lower risk of pregnancy, and not completely safe. Ask your partner to get tested for pregnancy if you are concerned.

My age is 20. I am a female. My weight is 32 kg and height is 5'2''.i was tested positive for pregnancy. I tried to do medical abortion. I took 1 mifepristone by swallowing. After 24 hours- 800mcg misoprostol vaginally. And 3 hours after that 400mcg misoprostol vaginally and more 400mcg misoprostol with 3 hours interval. Took total 5 doses of misoprostol like this including the first dose of 800mcg. After that my gestational sac came out in the morning while i was sitting on toilet. But i did not bleed at all. My pregnancy tissues and placenta did not pass too as i did not bleed before or after passing the sac. The embryo was inside the fluid like white colored sac. I was 12 weeks pregnant. Its now 36 hours and i did not bleed still. Should i wait for my bleeding to start? I took more misoprostol doses after my sac passed to start my bleeding but did not work. Will all the pregnancy tissues will come out naturally? Will my bleeding start naturally after some days?Will my pregnancy tissues and placenta pass if i wait? a doctor told me to use 2tab Co-Amoxiclav 625mg PO bid for 1week, 2tab metronidazole 400mg PO tid for 1week. this medicines are for infection. Also, do i have risks of having retained placenta issues such as hemorrhage? Or i don’t have the risk as i didn’t bleed at all yet? Will the placenta come out when bleeding will happen naturally after waiting ? i am confused and also very worried.

My mother has problem of uncontrolled urine leakage. She has lost self confidence & feels depressed. No sugar, BP or any other disease. Can this be cured? How by medication or surgery. USG indicates reduced bladder capacity of 44 cc & small umbilical hernia. Pus cels are found in plenty in urine report. Kindly guide & advise. Thanks Prashant Kothari 7600035960

Female | 81

The  treatment depends on the cause of the urine leakage. I advise you to visit a urologist in person first. Based on some evaluations, the cause of the problem can be known and accordingly the doctor may decide whether your mother needs surgery or medications.

Am having a vagina itchy and it also swollen, with a slight pain too

Female | 32

An imbalance of good and bad bacte­ria in the vagina can lead to infections. The­se include yeast infe­ctions or bacterial ones. Common symptoms are itching, swe­lling, and discomfort. Over-the-counter cre­ams may provide relief. Howe­ver, seeing a doctor for pre­scription medication is recommende­d. To prevent future issue­s, wear cotton underwear and avoid sce­nted products. These simple­ steps restore balance­ and promote vaginal health.
