Answered by Dr. Himali Patel

Commonly, a contraceptive called plan B can lead to some irregularity with your monthly cycle. A delayed period can be your pill or stress because you are scared of getting pregnant. You might face side effects such as bloating and breast tenderness. To be sure if you are pregnant, perform a pregnancy test 7 days after your missed period.

I pass frequent clots during my periods. Is it normal and what are reasons for blood clots?

Female | 35

Getting blood clots during periods is common. Formation of a blood clot occurs when blood becomes thick and sticks together. They can be of a larger or smaller size and mostly are not of a grave concern. However, if you experience either large clotting or frequent occurrences, it is best to consult a gynecologist.

Sex k bad 72 unwanted kit use ki thi 2 time date aa chuki h and 3 time nahi ai h

Female | 19

It is rather common to employ an emergency contraceptive pill such as the 72-hour kit after sex. Every so often, it has the potential to disrupt your period cycle. If you have experienced it two times and your period has come two times, but the third time has not come, it may be because of the pill. Hang on a bit, and if you are concerned, consult with a gynecologist for some advice.

Female | 49

The size and intensity of the cysts determine the course of treatment. In case the cysts are large or causing too much pain, surgery might be necessary. However, smaller cysts can sometimes be managed by taking drugs that reduce pain and monitoring them for growth over time. It would be best for you to visit a gynecologist who will carry out a thorough assessment and come up with a treatment plan that is tailored to your specific case.

Periods miss. 1 bar sex kiya tha protection lekar uske baat periods hua tha but is month nhi hua hai

Female | 17

Periods can be influenced by various factors, including stress, changes in weight, or hormonal fluctuations. If you had a recent menstrual cycle followed by a missed period, it might be due to these factors. Occasionally, even with protection, anxiety around sexual activity can impact your cycle. It's essential to monitor any additional symptoms like discomfort or unusual changes. Consider keeping track of your cycle and lifestyle. If your period remains absent for more than a week or you have concerns, please consult a gynecologist. They can provide personalized advice and ensure everything is well.

Hi! Me and my girlfriend were having sex while wearing only our underwears. There's a chance (I don't actually remember it much) that I may have taken out for a small period my underwear. We weren't using any contraceptives, and she was on her fertile period. She has taken the morning after pill 17 hours later. Is there something to worry about?

Male | 22

Taking the morning after pill within 17 hours of intercourse can be effective in preventing pregnancy.. but its effectiveness tends to decrease the longer you wait. Consult a gynecologist to confirm

I missed my period this month after had sex last month

Female | 21

You may have missed your period because of pregnancy if you had sex last month. Besides a missed period, other signs are nausea and tender breasts. But stress or hormone changes can make periods late too. To know for certain, take a pregnancy test at home. It's wise to talk to a gynecologist for advice and support about this matter.

My period came pretty late this month and within the first couple of hours after it started, there was a large blood clot that came out. It was kind of flesh color with really dark blood on it.

Female | 32

Blood clots during periods may seem scary, but they're quite normal. Your uterus sheds its lining, causing clots to form. Their size and color varies based on hormones and flow rate. If heavy bleeding, intense pain, or repeated clots occur, see a gynecologist. This ensures that your cycle is regular and identifies any underlying issues.

Hi dr I have one doubt… I am in first month of pregnancy and doctor advised me to take corpreg tablet instead of folic acid… So my doubt is which one is better… can I take both tablets together?

Female | 27

It is commendable that you are already looking for nice ways to care for yourself and your pregnancy. Folic acid is essential for a healthy pregnancy. It helps in reducing the incidence of neural tube defects in the baby. Corpreg is a supplement that contains folic acid and other vitamins and minerals. You can take the two pills in combination because taking corregar improves the baby's birth by adding extra necessary nutrients for the baby's development.

Im 33 year old lady had my period the 4-6 august on Friday the 16 august had a brown with little blood discharge then i took a pregnancy test and it was positive on Saturday started spot bleeding on Sunday with cramps then its start with pinch pain on the right side of my stomach

Female | 33

The brown discharge and a positive pregnancy test can mean that you are pregnant in the early stages. The spot bleeding and cramps could be due to either implantation or normal hormonal fluctuations. Additionally, it may be a cyst or muscle strain that you feel a pinch of pain on the right side. It's best to keep well hydrated, take enough rest, and watch the development of your symptoms. If the pain becomes unbearable or does not subside, consult a gynecologist for a proper diagnosis.

My hands were covered in sperm, then I cleaned my hands only with water 3 times. After that, I cleaned my vagina with still wet hands and water. will it cause pregnancy?

Female | 21

Pregnancy is only possible if sperm enters the vagina through intercourse. The fact that you only used water to clean your hands makes it very unlikely that sperm would transfer to your vagina. But to be on the safe side, you should start using soap for effective handwashing in the future. Besides, if you notice any unusual symptoms like missed periods or unusual discharge, it is always better to speak with a gynecologist.

my stomach has stayed bloated for the past 4 days now. i felt flutter like kicks for about 3 seconds last night whilst laying down in bed. it feels full i took a pregnancy test and it came back and said on the stick “not pregnant” but i only tested once. i’m supposed to be due on my period but my periods have always been irregular. some months though have been on time most haven’t. my period did come very very early at the start of july. the last day of my period before that for example, was on 28th june and then came back for 3 days starting on 12th july. i haven’t really had extreme pain or discomfort, only slightly but i never really experience discomfort/pain when i’m supposed to be due on they’re always very minor.

Female | 21

You may be presenting symptoms of bloating and irregular periods. There are many causes for bloating, including, among other things, gas and constipation. To some people, irregular periods can be part of the norm. The fluttering you sensed may be due to muscle contractions. Talk with a gynecologist if the symptoms continue or worsen for more recommendations.

Is vaginal yeast infection normal or something serious?

Female | 27

Vaginal yeast infections are quite common and usually not a cause for alarm. Symptoms often include itching, burning, and unusual discharge. They are typically caused by an imbalance in the natural flora, sometimes triggered by factors like antibiotics, stress, or hormonal changes. Fortunately, these infections can be effectively treated with antifungal medications, which are available over the counter or through your healthcare provider. It’s always a good idea to consult a gynecologist if you experience recurrent issues or severe symptoms.

I m 12 weeks pregnant. My NT scan report is 0.39 CM.. Is it to be worried?

Female | 30

At 12 weeks of gestation, a normal NT scan report is expected to be 0.39 cm. The test for the measure of NT (nuchal thickness) is important for the estimation of the risk of chromosomal abnormalities. The specified amount of 0.39 cm is the normal level for this condition at this stage of pregnancy. Usually, if the measurement is normal like this, there is no need to worry. However, keep your regular prenatal check-ups as your gynecologist advises to get further confirmation that all is going well.
