You can certainly take a pregnancy test one day after your period is due. Home urine tests are quite accurate at this stage, as they detect the hormone hCG, which rises in early pregnancy. However, for more precise results, a blood test measuring beta hCG can be conducted at a healthcare facility. Symptoms of early pregnancy may include missed periods, fatigue, and breast tenderness. If you have concerns or uncertainties, it is best to consult your gynecologist for personalized guidance and support. They can help clarify your situation and discuss the next steps.

I have pain in my breast of right side. What is the cause. I do breastfeeding

Female | 31

Pain in the breast while breastfeeding is very common and may be caused by lactation mastitis or milk duct blockage. It is good to see a gynecologist if pain persists, it might be a symptom of a more serious condition. Hence, I advise you to visit a gynecologist or lactation consultant for the right diagnosis and treatment.

Hi there My name is Afiyat Nuha and I am 18 years old, recently I have missed my period bt I can't find a reason for that to happen.What should I do?

Female | 18

Not getting a period is something that can happen for a lot of different reasons and it’s okay if this has happened to you once or twice before. If you are worried about not having a period, some things to think about would be stress levels, weight changes (up or down), diet changes, how much you’ve been exercising lately, and even hormone levels.

During the teenage years it’s common for girls to have irregular periods so don’t worry too much if this is the only time it’s ever happened to you. However, if your periods have always been like clockwork and you happen to be sexually active, then yes—there’s always a chance that you could be pregnant.

I'm a 25yrs old female, married since 1yr, I had D&C two weeks ago at 6th week of pregnancy and I was bleeding till yesterday but I had intercourse so the bleeding stopped since then, is it okay or I should worry about it as my gynaec said I would bleed around 5 weeks and I'm still lactating. Apart from that is it okay if I take shower?

Female | 25

Light bleeding can occur as your body heals, and it's common for this to fluctuate. If the bleeding stopped after intercourse, it may be due to physical activity, but it's important to monitor your symptoms. Continuing lactation is also normal, as your body adjusts hormonally. You can take showers, but avoid hot baths or swimming until your doctor clears you. If you experience heavy bleeding, pain, or any unusual symptoms, please reach out to your gynecologist for guidance.

I am a 25 year old female who is currently 6 weeks pregnant. I have had 2 blighted ovums in 3 years apart. The scan has shown even this pregnancy is a blighted ovum. Is there a possibility of me having a normal pregnancy as I have had 2 blighted ovums already with 2 different partners. Please assist.

Female | 24

Blighted ovum, which is also called the synonym "anembryonic pregnancy," is a situation where a fertilized egg is implanted in the uterus, but the embryo does not develop. I understand your worries about having two blighted ovums one after the other were scary. The most important thing is to consult your doctor, who knows the potential causes and comes up with the possible solutions that allow you to have a healthy pregnancy in the future. You could have further examinations which are done to help decide if there is an underlying factor that is causing this to happen multiple times.

Female | 23

It’s common for periods to be slightly irregular at times due to stress, changes in routine, or hormonal imbalances. If your period is more than a week late, or if you experience other symptoms, it's best to visit a gynecologist to rule out any underlying issues. They can provide the right guidance and treatment if needed.

Hello ..I am trying to conceive since June 2023 ...I have PCOD I have started taking metformin and clomiphene from Jan 2024... Still not able to conceive My height is 5'1 and weight 60 kg Please help me out

Female | 30

It is difficult to become pregnant with PCOD. This leads to irregular periods and issues with ovulation, as well as increased levels of male hormones. Metformin or clomiphene may be used for regulating the menstrual cycle and promoting ovulation. Ensure you take them according to your doctor’s instructions. Fertility in women with PCOD can also be enhanced by losing weight; therefore, it is important to stay healthy.

I have feel nipples discharge recently I have unprotected sex with my boyfriend but I take the contraceptive pill too and i have my period on time I am worried about the pregnancy.

Female | 17

Nipple discharge is caused by hormonal imbalances or medication side effects. While its not necessarily an indicator of pregnancy. And if you are taking contraceptive pills regularly and as directed, it's less likely that you are pregnant. Check with a gynecologist to confirm.

Am on 10th days on periods but light flows am getting worried what can l use to stop it

Female | Melaine

It is quite natural for you to get worried about long-lasting menstrual blood loss. Light discharge over 10 days may happen because of different causes such as hormonal changes, stress, or lifestyle modifications. Rather than trying to stop it alone, focus more on your health by eating healthy foods and drinking plenty of water. If the strange-shade bleeding does not go and/or is followed by a lot of discomfort, it is best to consult a gynecologist who knows more about these things.

31 january ko period aaya tha or 4 February ko khtm hua or 8 Feburary ko sex kiye or 9 February ko mai I pill le chuki hun or 21 February ko bleeding hua hai or 4 march ko phir se bleeding ho rha hai to pregnancy ho skti hai

Female | 16

Aapke symptoms se lagta hai ki aapko irregular bleeding ho rahi hai, jo stress ya hormonal changes ke wajah se ho sakti hai, especially after using emergency contraception. Periods ke baar baar aane ya late hone ki wajah se pregnancy ka possibility kam hota hai, lekin bilkul confirm karne ke liye pregnancy test karna zaruri hai. Agar aapko bleeding zyada ho rahi hai ya kisi aur tarah ki chinta ho, toh main aapko gynecologist se milne ki salah deti hoon. Woh aapke case ko achhe se samajh kar behtar guidance de sakte hain.

I'm getting my periods in every after 15days.why and what are the solution

Female | 22

Feel tired? annoying? these signs might suggest excessive hormones are the reason why you have a period twice a month. It can sometimes include heavy periods (menorrhagia), cramps, or lower tummy pain when your period is on and feeling very tired during your periods. Stress is one possibility—weight changes could be another one—or perhaps even thyroid problems too; they all disrupt the menstrual cycle causing this issue. To get things back on track eating right exercise regularly manage stress levels effectively if none of these work then see a gynecologist who will be able to provide help further advice.

My menstrual period is late. I also use combination pills for last month. I take a pregnancy test it shows negative . Why my period is late

Female | 31

When you start taking combination contraceptive pills, your body may need time to adjust. This temporary phase could delay your period. Factors like stress, illness, or changes in body weight can also affect menstrual timing. If your pregnancy test is negative, it's likely just a temporary irregularity. Keep track of your cycle and consult a gynecologist if the delay continues.

A light pink line on a pregnancy test may indicate early pregnancy, especially in the absence of your menstrual cycle.

I have developed wart like growth in cluster on my genital area(external labia) since last two months. Not sure if it is STI or something else. The last time I got sexually active was in august 2023, we used protection and didn't have multiple partners. Please let me know if i should visit a gynac or dermat?

Female | 28

The lumps you mentioned seeing around your private parts may be genital warts. They are caused by a virus known as HPV that can be transmitted through sexual contact. Even with protection, one can get HPV. To deal with this, you need to see a gynecologist who will diagnose you properly and suggest treatment options.

Female | 22

Missed periods can be concerning, especially after taking emergency contraception like the ipill. Your period may be late due to stress, hormonal imbalances, or underlying health conditions. However, if you had protected intercourse and took the ipill correctly, pregnancy is less likely. For accurate evaluation and guidance, it's recommended to consult a gynecologist.
