This case has a low likelihood of pregnancy because you took emergency contraception right away. The negative test result also shows it's improbable. You're doing well by being proactive! However, if anything seems off or you have concerns, it's smart to see a gynecologist.

Cure for vaginal yeast infection
Female | 19
Sometimes, an overgrowth of yeast occurs within the vagina. It causes itching, burning during urination, and unusual discharge. Avoid tight clothing and promptly change out of damp swimwear. Over-the-counter creams or tablets can help eliminate the excess yeast. Be sure to follow all usage instructions meticulously.

My period cycle is 30 to 40 days. I am trying for pregnancy. Due to that my doctor said to take tests for PCOS, FSH and AMH levels.I have hypothyroid 3.1 report on Dec 2023 and taking 50 mcg daily. My FSH is 25.74 and AMH is 0.3 on March 2024 . My doctor told because of low egg reserve it is better to go IVF treatment. I need your suggestion on this.
Female | 27
Your test results suggest that your egg supply is running low, which could make it harder for you to get pregnant. This may be caused by something called PCOS. PCOS affects the menstrual cycle and fertility. Your doctor advised you to undergo IVF treatment to improve your chances of conception. IVF works by using technology to facilitate fertilization outside the body hence this might just be what you need. Make sure you discuss all possible options with your fertility specialist.

If there's spotting during pregnancy, it's important to consult an obstetrician/gynecologist, to discuss your symptoms and get personalized advice. While spotting can sometimes be normal during early pregnancy, it could also indicate issues that need to be addressed.

Female | 22
You should remember that paying a visit to an I-pill clinic disturbs the regularity of menstrual cycles. I urge you to visit a gynecologist who can help you decide on the correct expected menstrual date and also recommend the appropriate contraception methods.

I recommend that you have an appointment with a gynecologist today. The prolonged periods can become a side effect of emergency contraceptive pills, however, you should exclude any underlying medical conditions.

Can I be pregnant if I had unprotected sex in May month but got my period for June and July?
Female | 22
Occasionally, periods can be a bit of light bleeding which can be mistaken for an early pregnancy. In addition to that, there are also symptoms like nausea, breast tenderness, and fatigue that can be a sign of pregnancy. Nonetheless, having a period is not a definitive indication that you are not pregnant. If you're worried, taking a pregnancy test is a good idea to make sure.

I am late to my period for 5 days and I took period stop pill for 4 days each day one tablet last month. After stopping that tablet I had intercourse on 3 Rd day of period . I usually observe no white discharge before period for 5-7 days . But this month it happened same but since last 2 days I just spotted slimy discharge only one time and still my period has not come.
Other | 21
If you are taking pills to stop your periods and having intercourse, they might affect it. Having slimy secretions from the vagina is also normal. Late periods can be brought about by anxiety, changes in hormones, or even pregnancy. It would be better to wait for another week while monitoring the situation. If you are still concerned, it would be best to seek medical advice from a gynecologist.

It's normal for your period to be delayed.. since you consumed unwanted 72. It generally affects the menstrual cycle.If your period doesn't come within a week of its expected date, take a pregnancy test. Stress and other factors can also influence your menstrual cycle.

I am a 32 hear old lady. I am 4 months pregnant, 3 days ago I felt itchiness on my vagina area going up to the labia it was a strong burning sensation and today I noticed some rash on the area and the itchiness and burning is still there. What could be the cause I am married and we have unprotected sex with my husband.
Female | 32
This could be a yeast infection or it could be something called vulvar dermatitis which is common. These are more likely to happen when you’re pregnant because of the hormonal changes. You can use antifungal creams or soothing creams that are sold over the counter to help with these symptoms. You need to talk to your gynecologist about what’s going on so they can give you the right advice and treatment.

During early pregnancy, implantation bleeding may occur. The fertilized egg attaching to the uterus causes light spotting. Take a pregnancy test to know for certain. You can also visit a gynecologist.

I didn't get my periods for 2 months. It happened before also, so I took the regestrone tablet, can I take it again?
Female | 22
Skipping periods for two months might seem normal, yet it signifies underlying issues. Stress, hormonal imbalances, or medical conditions could trigger this irregularity. Regestrone tablets may induce periods, but identifying the root cause is crucial. Consulting a gynecologist is wise, as they can diagnose and prescribe suitable treatment for regulating your menstrual cycle.

Hey, I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend 2 days ago before my period which has began today. Is there any chance that I may still get pregnant in my new cycle which began today? I usually have a 30 day cycle but can be sometimes shorter or longer = or minus 2 days
Female | 23
Most people worry when unprotected sex happens. Your period starting lowers pregnancy chances this cycle. But sperm can live for days inside, so a small risk still exists. Take emergency contraception if concerned. Use condoms or birth control to prevent pregnancy.

Female | 24
If you got your periods normally in Jan, then may be the delay is not because of pregnancy. It can delayed due to stress or other reasons which is normal. Check with a pregnancy test to confirm. And if the test is negative, consult a gynecologist for delay of periods.

Sometimes women miss periods. That could mean pregnancy. Other signs: feeling tired, sick, sore breasts, lots of urinating. Pregnancy happens when an egg meets sperm. To confirm if pregnant, take home test or get blood test done. It's essential to know pregnancy status early.

Does taking an ipill twice a month causes a problem?
Female | 22
It is not advisable to take emergency contraceptive pills frequently within a month such as iPill. When taken many times, these pills can lead to hormonal imbalances in the body. Symptoms of this may be irregular menstrual cycles, nausea and headaches. Regular birth control methods should be used to avoid having to use emergency contraception. If one frequently requires for this kind of contraception, it would be wise to consult with a gynecologist on better birth control.

I have a bump on my labia and I know it isn’t an STD. It started swelling and appeared after I shaved. It’s tender.
Female | 23
It appears you have developed a razor bump in your labia area. This can occur when hair follicles get irritated after shaving. The result is swelling tenderness and a visible bump forming. To assist, try using warm compresses for soothing relief. Avoid shaving until the bump heals completely. If symptoms persist or worsen, it's advisable to consult a gynecologist.
