Can I Take Abortion Pills if Period's Late?

Can I take abortion pills now that my period is 7 days late and I could be pregnant? Is there such thing as "it's too early to take the pills?" If so, when should I consider taking them and could I be affected incase I took the pills whilst iam not pregnant?

If your period is late by 7 days and you suspect pregnancy, one thing you should make sure of is that you are certain about it before taking the abortion pills. It's better to wait until at least 1-2 weeks after your missed period to start taking the pills. Taking them too early may not work at all or, if you're not pregnant, could even be dangerous for you. If you are not sure, it's best to do a home pregnancy test first to make sure.

Not getting your pe­riod on time is concerning, but we'll find the­ cause. You mentioned ge­tting intimate in late March, which could be the­ reason. Sometimes, this shifts your cycle­. Other possible causes are­ stress or certain medicine­s. If you feel queasy or tire­d, doing a pregnancy test at home may he­lp.

Female | 19

I would suggest that you visit a gynecologist for irregular periods and morning sickness. They can diagnose your condition and offer a relevant medicine or other treatment. The Hempushpa may or may not work properly and even to the extreme side it can have potential side effects.

Is it possible to get a positive result in pregnancy test if I feel I will have my period a few days a go?

Female | 25

Just before your period, if you do a pregnancy test and the result is positive, it could be that you indeed might be pregnant. This can happen, because of the production of hCG by your body which is detected by the test. You can still have the impression of a period being on the way and yet, hCG may occur in early pregnancy. If you have doubts about the result, you can verify it by performing a second test a couple of days later.

I want to ask that my mother has been surged due to cyst and I want to confirm that uterus has been out

Female | 35

If the uterus has been removed, it's called a hysterectomy. Symptoms of cysts can include pelvic pain or irregular periods. One of the conditions that can cause a hysterectomy is cysts on the ovaries. You can confirm the removal of the uterus by asking the surgeon who performed the procedure. The doctor's explanation will be thorough. Follow your doctor's instructions closely regarding post-surgery care.

i had unprotected sex for like 15-17 days ago , but the partner withdraws before ejaculation in a very safe timing but now its been like 3 days i haven't got my periods

Female | 18

In some cases, the concern could lead to delays in periods. Another reason for late periods might be pregnancy or hormonal changes. The symptoms of pregnancy include nausea, tiredness, and breast tenderness. On the one hand, you can do a home pregnancy test to confirm the pregnancy.
