I am a 35 years old lady. Starting last month I notice that some days after Ovulation I started spotting which went for around 6 days after another 5 days I started my periods. What could be the problem
Female | 35
You've noticed spotting after ovulation, which can be alarming. This irregular bleeding suggests something's not quite right. Often it points to hormone levels being off-kilter or an issue with the uterus itself. While spotting between periods isn't unusual, tracking when it occurs is wise. Causes range from stress throwing hormones out of whack to a diet needing improvement. Treatments may involve lifestyle adjustments or medications to rebalance hormones. The best approach is monitoring your cycle carefully, and discussing it with a gynecologist.

DNC and bleeding for how many days
Female | 35
DNC stands for "dilation and curettage." It's a process carried out to examine the uterus's interior. Some bleeding for a couple days is normal after a DNC. This occurs as the uterus recovers. If bleeding is heavy, persists over a week, or comes with pain, fever, or foul-smelling discharge, it's crucial to contact your gynecologist. They'll determine if any issue exists and provide appropriate treatment.

I'm seeking advice regarding a recent sexual encounter and potential pregnancy risk. One day ago, I engaged in sexual activity where there was contact between the tip of my penis and the outer layer of the vagina. It's important to note that there was no penetration, and the pre-cum was already present at the tip of my penis before making contact. Additionally, my partner is still a virgin, and there was no penetration of any kind during the encounter. Despite these factors, I'm concerned about the possibility of pregnancy from pre-ejaculate. I've read conflicting information online about the risk of pregnancy from pre-cum, and I'm unsure about the next steps to take to prevent pregnancy. Could you please provide guidance on the effectiveness of emergency contraception in this situation and advise on any additional measures I should consider? I want to ensure that I'm taking appropriate precautions to avoid pregnancy.
Female | 20
Based on the information provided the possibility of impregnation from pre-ejaculate in this situation is quite small, though not impossible. As to point that emergency contraception is the best when taken immediately after unprotected sex should be stressed. You could start by seeing a gynecologist or a reproductive health specialist to discuss the issue and possible methods of emergency contraception.

About menstrual problem which means I had my periods before 2 days but the flow of blood is very less
Female | 20
Variation from cycle to cycle in reproductive bleeding is not unusual. On the contrary, light bleeding periods may serve as an indication of some underlying medical condition such as hormonal imbalance or thyroid disorders and polycystic ovary syndrome. You should consult a gynaecologist, who will analyze your symptoms and provide an appropriate treatment.

Period missed. Pregnancy test negative. Watery discharge. Lower stomach pain
Female | 23
You might have pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). This could be the cause of your missed periods, watery discharge, and lower stomach pain. When bacteria move from the vagina into the uterus or other reproductive organs, they can cause PID. A doctor will need to give you antibiotics for the treatment of this condition. To avoid any complications, it’s important that you see a gynecologist about these symptoms right away.

Hello doctor I have a problem of pain just right below the breast sometimes can you tell me what is the problem
Female | 21
Pain just below the breast could be due to various reasons like muscle strain, acid reflux, or even gallbladder issues. It’s important not to ignore this pain, especially if it’s recurring or severe. I would strongly advise you to visit a general physician or a gastroenterologist to get a proper diagnosis and treatment.

my period just ended last week and yesterday I started seeing a brown discharge mixed with blood on my pant what does it mean
Female | 18
The brown, discharged blood you are seeing right after your period is the blood of your last period that has not been completely discharged. There are occasions when the blood does not come out immediately. It is common and usually, it is not a very big deal. If you have had this kind of bleeding for a long time or suffer from pain or a stinky odor which is unusual, then it's better to have a consultation with a gynecologist to make sure everything is fine.

Female | 26
Period symptoms don’t usually include stomach aches, but it seems that’s what you’re going through. Weakness, dizziness, and fatigue may be low iron in the blood or hormonal changes. Ensure you take a healthy diet consisting of green leafy vegetables and fruits. Apart from that, drink enough water and have a good sleep. Should these symptoms persist, seeking medical attention for further investigation is vital.

Sometimes, your test shows negative, even if expecting. This occurs when checking too early. The smart move is seeing a gynecologist for a blood test. That confirms pregnancy.

I am 27 year old female and I’ve not had my period for 5 days I’m not pregnant and not had unprotected sex
Female | 27
It's normal to feel anxious when you are late for your period, but don't panic because there are a variety of rational reasons behind this. Overworking, weight loss, hormone contradictions, and thyroid gland issues could all influence the menstruation cycle. Check if you prepare meals in a balanced way, get enough sleep, and avoid a lot of stress. If the problem persists, have a conversation with a gynecologist.

Female | 18
Based on your description of the situation, it is conceivable that these irregular periods and negative pregnancy test results might be attributed to hormonal differences or emotional strains. It is possible that your cycle can be disrupted due to various reasons. Since you are free of any nausea or vomiting, the chances of pregnancy are minimal. However, to confirm, it is wise to consult a gynecologist who will carry out a full diagnosis to be certain of the problem.

Hlw mam period me sex ke baad ladki pregnant hoti hain ?
Male | 24
Menstruation, the process under which a girl loses an egg that hasn't been fecundated by sperm, is the typical cause of her having her period. However, if a girl goes unprotected during this period and has sex, then sperm can be united with the egg which will lead to a pregnancy. Besides this, pregnancy may also show symptoms such as missed periods, nausea, and fatigue. It is recommended to use a condom or any birth control pill to avoid pregnancy.
