Remember to take your pill at the same time every day because it is one of the factors that make your pill effective. If something gets in your way, there is no reason to panic. Take a missed pill as soon as you remember. Even if it means to take two pills a day. Though it is okay to miss two or more pills and rely on some other methods like condoms for the time being, nevertheless make it a point to consult an experienced gynecologist to know exactly how to proceed in your case

i'm feeling bloated in my lower abdomen and it hurts sometimes but I don't have period, i missed my period 10 days and I'm experiencing spotting. my last period begin on last april 15. My partner and I did something on 1 week of April and I still got my period on April 15. Now, my partner and i didn't have sex but I still got no period this time. please help me on this, thank you for answering.

Missed periods, bloating, lower stomach pain, and spotting are all signs of hormone imbalance which can be caused by stress among other things like pregnancy etc. The exercise activity from April’s first week might have affected your cycle. Monitor these symptoms plus your menstrual cycle for the next couple of weeks. If they worsen, see a gynecologist who will give you further instructions on what steps to be taken.

I recently had sex with my new bf He used to have multiple partners V didn’t use any contraceptives And that was my first time it was very hard for me Now after 7 days i have severe abdominal pain And very heavy watery discharge and little white discharge I used to have fever for the past 3 days in evenings n joint pain too Now i dont But the abdominal pain n discharge is still there n is very bad I started on doxy n metro n clindac yesterday as said by my gyn What is the problem?? Is it serious
Female | 22
The strong lower abdominal pain, large watery discharge and also the white discharge can suggest an infection. These symptoms coupled with the fever and joint aches could be an indication of a sexually transmitted infection (STI) or pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). It’s great that you’ve started on antibiotics as per your gynecologist’s prescription. Ensure that you finish all the antibiotics prescribed and then see your doctor for more tests and treatment.

Hi there, I'm a 27 year old woman, and I've been experiencing an unusual change in my menstrual cycle recently. Instead of the usual one period per month, I've been having 3 periods in a month. It's been a bit concerning, and I was wondering if anyone else has gone through something similar or if there's any insight into what might be causing this. I'm hoping to find some advice or information on how to address this issue.
Female | 27
Frequent periods can be due to various factors like hormonal changes, stress, or certain health conditions. Treatments depend on the cause and may include hormonal birth control or hormone-regulating medication. Please consult a gynecologist for personalized advice.

Female | 17
There could be a variety of reasons why you missed your periods, including pregnancy, stress, changes in weight or exercise routines, etc. The first step is to take a pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy as a potential cause. If the test is negative, consult a gynecologist to identify the cause of your missed period and get the best course of treatment.

Risk for fetal aneuploidy is low. What does this mean?
Female | 38
The "risk for fetal aneuploidy is low" means that the probability of the fetus having an abnormal number of chromosomes is considered to be low which is a positive indication.

Is this pregnancy report is positive? Beta Human Chorionic Gonadotropin Hormone < 5.00 mIU/ml
Female | 28
When the beta hCG level is under 5.00 mIU/ml, it means no pregnancy is detected. If you think pregnancy's possible, you can retest later.

Hello doctor I was expecting pregnancy and yesterday I have to get my period. I have noticed little bleeding yesterday with very mild period cramps. Immediately I have taken diclomal tablet get releived from those cramps. However I havemt noticed any kind of bleeding in my pad but noticed brown colour discharge today morning. My concern is am I pregnant or is it implantation bleeding and if it is so as I have taken the tablet will that effect the pregnancy
Female | 34
It’ is difficult to tell if it's just implantation bleeding unless there is a medical assessment done. You should visit a gynecologist and let them take the pregnancy test and afterward give you the advice you need. The intake of Diclomal tablet can leave the pregnancy at the risk and therefore it is vital to inform the doctor the same. It would be best that you see a gynecologist so you can get a complete check-up with their recommendations.

Is it possible to get pregnant with no symptoms and delivery in six months without swollen belly or increase in belly size
Female | 23
Unexpectedly having a baby after six months without visible signs can happen. This rare occurrence, called cryptic pregnancy, means the baby grew unusually, hiding typical clues. But if this occurs, it's essential to visit a gynecologist. They'll ensure the baby and mother are healthy and safe.

I was a virgin until May 5, 2024. My partner and i tried to have sex, but in his words, he never came at the same time he did not have precum. He also said that he did not put it in all the way. (Before i continue, a little back story, i have this 21 hormonal pill pack. I know we have the 21 and the 28 pack. I have the 21. I use this pack to regulate my period since i have PCOS also prescribed by my doctor. Though for the past few months feb-may i should be off my pills to see if my period regulated again ordered by my doctor. I had no period on feb and march but did on april.) After 2 hrs of unprotected sex, i took 1 pill from the 21 pill pack that i have. Then 4 days later i took 5 pills for 5 consecutive days. Then stopped after the 5 days. (Back story: in the 21 pill pack, you have a 7 day break to wait to get your period. Sometimes it comes within the 7 days. Sometimes it comes after the 7 days. After the 7 day break you have to restart and take a pill and continue for 20 more days as said in the instructions. With period or not). So the 5 days were May 10,11,12,13,14. On May 22 i got my period. When i checked the calendar i realized there was a 7 day break in between before i got my period. My period started on May 22 and ended on May 26. And i know it was my period because, it looked like my period everytime i get it. Dark red blood, blood clots, lasted 3-5 days, abdominal cramps with matching lower back pain, bleeding through my pad. Smelled like my period everytime i get it. Questions: 1. Is there a possibility for pregnancy? 2. Did i mess up my hormones? 3. Did i mess up my PCOS? 4. How is it possible that i took 5 pills from a 21 pill pack had the 7 day break and had my period?
Female | 24
There isn’t much of a chance that you’re pregnant. Your partner didn’t ejaculate, and there wasn’t any pre-cum. Also, your period came on time. If you take extra pills or have breaks in your pack, it can sometimes affect your hormones. However, only making this kind of short-term change may not result in long-term problems. Getting your period after taking 5 pills and then going off them could have caused some hormonal changes but if eventually things evened out when it came back.

Im 17 years old girl, for the last 5 months i am having irregular periods, and today i am experiencing abdomen pain, breast tenderbness, feeling tired, and increased eating food cause i dont know, i never had sex then why am i experiencing pregnancy symptoms?
Female | 17
Irregular menstruation cycles can occur for various reasons in teens. In certain cases, physiologic alterations of your body may mislead you to think that you have pregnancy-like phenomena, when you did not have any activities like that. The best approach to get a clear picture of what's happening is to visit a gynecologist. They can run some tests to make sure things are all right and they are also able to help you feel better.

so let me give you some context first, she has PCOD. and get's irregular periods, but since 1-2 months she was having normal periods due to some medecines, which her doctor prescribed. But at that time, even before we "did that", her periods were late for 5-6 days already. What happened is I went to my gf's place on 7th June. and we thought of just doing kisses and cuddles. But later on we crossed our limits and i got more aggressive towards her, which she liked. So she was giving me a handjob, and told me that there's some precum on her hand. But it dried really fast due to the fan and cooler. And later on I was rubbing my dick on her vagina without any clothes, and spreaded her outer area and she was getting hurt by it. I didn't went deep inside. and stopped there and after a bit she wore clothes and went to the washroom to clean herself down there and peed too. I didn't ejaculate inside her, and I'm not sure but i guess there wasn't precum either inside her. But not sure. And it's been many days since then, and she still hasn't gotten her periods yet. Her doctor doesn't know about the thing we did, and he just said that it's normal, and she'll get periods after her medecine. Today is her last dose of medicine left. We are worried that she might get pregnant? Ofcourse we don't want that to happen. Can you please help us out and tell us something? We're still not so old and responsible in both mentally and financial ways to take care of a baby
Female | 20
If you’re worried about a possible pregnancy, don’t be. The chances of it happening from what you’ve said are very slim. If there was no ejaculation or confirmed pre-cum inside her, then there is almost no risk at all. Stress can also delay periods. Tell her to relax as much as possible. If her period still doesn’t come, take a home pregnancy test to be sure.

These indicators can result from infection. Remember, you already struggle with PCOS and so are more prone to such. A check-up from a gynecologist is mandatory since proper treatment is crucial for infections.

6 mm and 7mm cysts are very small unless they are centimeters, if it is in centimeters, need to be operated. Hence I suggest you visit a gynecologist if the problem increases.

I have some itching and too much bowel sounds in the stomach and also itching vagina..
Female | 34
The common symptoms of itching and increased stomach sounds, which are due to various causes, such as allergies, dietary changes, or infections, can often be observed. For vaginal discomfort, issues like irritants or infections are likely the cause. It is important to take care of your hygiene, not use irritants like scented products, and hydrate yourself properly to relieve the symptoms. Probiotics can be beneficial in the process of gut rebalancing. However, symptoms that are either still there or worsen need to be consulted by a gynecologist.

A period that has not come in for a long time could be the result of stress, a hormonal imbalance, extreme weight loss, or even some medical conditions. See a gynecologist to discover the exact reason and get the appropriate treatment. By the way, don't worry and take care of yourself, it's best to have it checked.

Am 21 years old female un able to control my urine since my last intercourse 3 days ago
Female | 21
You may be dealing with a urinary tract infection (UTI). After sex, bacteria can sometimes get into the urethra which causes pain or difficulty controlling urine. Signs may include feeling an urgent need to pee, burning while peeing, and cloudy or bad-smelling urine. UTIs are treatable using antibiotics prescribed by your doctor. It is vital to drink a lot of water to flush out the bacteria. Also, make certain not to hold your pee and empty your bladder whenever you go. If these symptoms sound familiar then it’s time for proper evaluation and treatment from a urologist.

I got my period on August 15 then got period on September 7 but this usually I have my period about 5days but in September only I have 3days which look like in pink color then I tested pregnancy positive on 30 th day then tested in 40 it shows negative but this October month I didn't got my period why
Female | 26
Your period is changing from the normal and the pregnancy tests are giving both positive and negative results. Your periods in September could be pink and short in duration because of hormonal changes. It is not uncommon that pregnancy tests can show contradictory positive and negative results in the early periods. Missing periods in October could have various reasons like stress, hormonal imbalance, or maybe you are pregnant. If you are worried, consult a gynecologist for more information.

You need to seek medical advice for proper diagnosis and treatment. Keep the area clean and dry and wear loose clothing. Over the counter creams may provide temporary relief, but consulting a gynecologist or dermatologists is essential for a thorough evaluation and appropriate treatment.

Mam mare wife pregnant hai 10 month ho chuka hai ultrasound bhi sab ahi bta rh hai lekin baby nhi ho rh hai koi dikkat bhi nhi ho rhi hai kya reason ho sakta hai pehla baccha mai operation hua tha please tell me
Female | 24
If after 10 whole months baby still hasn't arrived, it could mean your wife has a post-term pregnancy. That's when little ones take longer before deciding it's time to come out. She should watch carefully for kicks and movements, and see her gynecologist regularly. Sometimes they'll recommend inducing labor - helping nudge baby along when it's safest.
