Are Birth Control Pills Safe and Effective? When Should You Take Them? Any Major Side Effects?
Are birth control pills are safe. When to take birth control pills before sex or after sex? How much days should we take the pills? Any major side effects?
Gynecologist
Answered on 23rd May '24
Taking birth control pills as directed, they are relatively safe. It is necessary to do this regularly every day to finish the treatment on time. These side effects are not far from the reach of these effective drugs. I suggest every woman who is considering the use of birth control pills first consult with their gynecologist.

I am delay period I am test in pregnancy kid on my 64 day but second line is light colour what reason
Female | 19
If a pregnancy test indicates a pale second line on the 64th day, it may be due to several factors. The conception of such a situation is probably the low hormone levels in your body. The possible causes of a light line are stress, conducting an improper test, or testing too early. You can wait 2-3 days and retake the test for a more accurate figure. It is a reasonable option to engage in a conversation with a gynecologist.

I'm experiencing vigina infection after delivery..it come n go after using medication it been months since July. I'm so stressed I don't what to duo now
Female | 34
Symptoms like changes in vaginal discharge color, itching, burning, and odors can indicate an infection. After childbirth, hormonal changes can make women more prone to infections. It's important to get a proper diagnosis and treatment, as some infections may need specific medications or lifestyle changes. There's no need to worry, as this is a common condition that can be treated with the right therapy. Visit a gynecologist for proper care.

You have the condition vaginitis. It shows pain, dryness, frequent urination, and discomfort. Infections, irritants, or hormone changes can cause vaginitis to be painful. Don't Use scented products instead, wear cotton underwear, and you will be a lot more comfortable. Over-the-counter medications like antipyretics are also another treatment you can use. The best thing to do when symptoms don't clear is to see a gynecologist for further evaluation.

Female | 21
Your concerns about vaginal discharge and cramps may indicate potential issues. These symptoms are often related to hormonal changes, stress, or an infection. Yeast infections are a common cause of these symptoms. To ease discomfort, try wearing breathable cotton underwear, avoiding scented products, and practicing good hygiene. However, if the symptoms persist despite these self-care measures, it's important to visit a gynecologist for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

My daughter had unprotected sex yesterday at noon and took an Unwanted 72 pill today at noon and just after taking the pill in her boyfriend's house, they had unprotected sex again. What are her chances of getting pregnant and how can she avoid pregnancy now? Please note that her periods are irregular and very delayed i.e. in a cycle of 3-4 months and we visited a doctor for that. Her last period was in mid December.
Female | 21
The pill reduces the chances of pregnancy, but it is not 100% effective. SSo there is still a risk of pregnancy. Its difficult to determine the timing of ovulation and fertility. please condult your doctor for evaluation.

Fibroids can be you have been carrying your pregnancy for 8 weeks and fibroids which can be the cause of discomfort. Fibroids are the term used for non-cancerous growths in the uterus. They may hurt more during pregnancy due to the increased blood flow. To ease this, rest enough, apply warm compresses, and take safe pain relief if needed. You must inform your gynecologist about your health condition so they will be able to monitor it properly.

Female | 26
While the pull-out method reduces the risk of pregnancy, it is not completely reliable. Given your experience with side effects from the emergency contraceptive pill, it might be best to consult a gynecologist before deciding. They can provide the most appropriate advice based on your medical history and current situation.

When spotting during your ovulation, this is usually not a matter of concern. But if the bleeding does not stop or worsen, or you feel pain and discomfort then it is recommended to visit your gynecologist. They will be able to diagnose and treat if needed.

Female | 25
Sometimes, a pregnant woman may feel a little fever and have body pain. It is the case of changes in the body during the pregnancy. To alleviate her discomfort, she should take time off, increase her fluid intake, and take acetaminophen if necessary. If the pain or fever worsens or she has other symptoms, it's best to seek advice from her gynecologist.

Female | 24
These signs may come from a hormonal imbalance, problems with your thyroid gland, or polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Hormones control periods as well as can affect weight and hair. To find the cause and suggest treatments such as hormone therapy or some lifestyle changes. Ask for tests that should be conducted by a gynecologist.

Hi this is a 20 year old girl who seeks for claroty.I started bleeding heavily non stop during February this year, had sore breasts too when I squeezed done of them watery discharge came out. all of this happened while on contraceptives (nur-injection). I went to a clinic and a nurse told me to not worry since it's normal and gave me ovral 28 to stop the bleeding and it did stop. Now what I'm concerned about is the increased discharge that started having before my August periods and even now after the periods it's still there and the one on the breadt when squeezed. I stopped taking the birth controls at that time I didn't go for my second jab on March this year.
Female | 20
Heavy bleeding and discharge from the breasts can be due to hormonal imbalances. After birth control, the hormone balance may have been disrupted thus these changes occurred. Consult a gynecologist to undergo a thorough examination and address your concerns for the optimal treatment approach.

Hello I stop birth control before 2 mother but still am not pregnant what shall I do I feel pain breast nipples hurt
Female | 27
Stopping birth control may cause breast and nipple soreness. Once you stop birth control, your body will need time to readjust. Hormonal changes due to this may be the cause of these symptoms. Wait it out a little longer, but if the pain persists or worsens, consider speaking with a gynecologist to ensure everything is okay.

Is this pregnancy report is positive? Beta Human Chorionic Gonadotropin Hormone < 5.00 mIU/ml

When the beta hCG level is under 5.00 mIU/ml, it means no pregnancy is detected. If you think pregnancy's possible, you can retest later.

I was just about to take a bath but at first I wiped my vagina when I wiped it a gel yellowish discharge was on my rag and I'm wondering what is the problem with me
Female | 15
You might have a yeast infection. Yeast infections can cause several symptoms such as yellow discharge, itching, and redness in the vagina area. This occurs when there is too much yeast growth in the vagina. You may use OTC antifungal creams or tablets to help with this. Ensure the region is kept clean and dry at all times. If the signs continue, it would be best to see a dermatologist for further evaluation.

I had my last period on Oct 18 and today I tested pregnancy. It shows positive.I repeated the home test thrice and result was positive . And also I did a Urine pregnancy test from a lab, the test shows weak positive. So am I pregnant?
Female | 23
A weak positive outcome from a lab test can be due to pregnancy in the beginning. Missed periods, nausea, tiredness, and breast soreness are the common symptoms of pregnancy. Schedule a prenatal check-up with a gynecologist for confirmation of the pregnancy and to start your common healthcare measures is most important.

I'm 5/6 months pregnancy, haven't gone to a clinic , and my boyfriend got an an infection through me, what could be the cause '
Female | 22
During the phase when you are 5/6 months pregnant, you gave your guy an infection through you. STIs can be a likely cause, for example, chlamydia or gonorrhea. You should seek timely care if you develop symptoms - a painful or burning sensation while urinating, an unexpected discharge, or soreness. The priority for the two of you is the testing and treatment carried out by a gynecologist/urologist so they can properly address any potential complications and ensure the well-being of your baby.
