Am I Safe from Pregnancy After Taking Emergency Contraceptive?
Hello sir / madam. My girlfriend started her periods on saturday evenings and ended her periods on Tuesday so we had unprotected sex on Friday morning and after sex I gave her I pill is she safe from pregnancy
Gynecologist/Obstetrician
Answered on 23rd May '24
Starting on a Saturday and closing on Tuesday is a typical cycle. In addition, having unprotected sex near the period can result in pregnancy. After sex, you can give her a morning-after pill; this will lower but not eliminate the chances of conception. Remember, every instance of unprotected intercourse carries with it the risk of becoming pregnant. Should she develop any strange signs or miss her next period, the best thing would be to take a test at home or go see a gynecologist who will provide further help.

Questions & Answers on "Gynaecology" (4237)
Good evening, dear doctors, I am writing to you because I am anxious and worried. I am 49 years old and have had very large fibroids for years that have never given me any problems, apart from swelling and the occasional early or very late period. This summer I had a gynecological visit with ultrasound because it had been about three years since I had a check-up due to anxiety problems that prevent me from going for visits and other fears. The visit went well in the sense that it was the same as three years ago but every doctor almost always suggested that I evaluate the option of removing it to eliminate the problem. This summer my period was a bit irregular, it came a little early, then spotting, then it ended as usual. In October I only had spotting for two weeks and that was it, in November spotting and then a very heavy period that ended a few days ago, still with very light spotting. In the grip of anxiety, I went to the gynecological clinic in my city, and he did a manual examination without an ultrasound, telling me that they are fibroids and to go to another gynecologist to evaluate what to do, I went to a gynecologist the other day and he did an ultrasound and an examination, apart from the fibroids that I already knew about, he told me that the endometrium is vascularized and a little irregular and measures 8mm. He told me that I need to look into it further. A few months ago it always measured 8 mm, but he didn't tell me anything. (He didn't talk to me about hormone levels or premenopause or anything else. I want to do hormone levels to see everything in general) I took a lot of antibiotics months ago for dental problems and I don't know if it could interfere with my cycle. I'm really desperate also because I have a lot of anxiety problems and this doesn't help... I hope it's nothing to worry about.. I'll try to look into it further. Thank you so much. Jenny Italy

It is very common to feel anxious about our menstrual cycles and fibroids changing. Unnaturalities in menstrual blood flow may be due to various factors such as hormonal changes, stress, or certain medications. An additional diagnostic step may be the determination of the blood vasculature in the endometrium. A sample hormone level testing will help your doctor to get the big picture and arrive at a diagnosis. Of course, honesty and open communication with your gynecologist is the key to a better treatment process.

Is it normal to bleed 8 days after taking the plan b
Male | 19
This is a common side effect of Plan B; nonetheless, there are some cases when it might also cause bleeding. Sometimes, the pill may alter your menstrual cycle and then you'll get the annoying bleeding. But, if you have heavy bleeding, severe pain, or feel dizzy, you must consult the doctor about this. Make it a habit to drink plenty of water and take proper amounts of rest.

I am still flowing heavily for 3 months after giving birth. Is it normal? Every time I have sex the flow is heavier and worse
Female | 21
Has your period lasted beyond 3 months after childbirth? That's unusual and could signal postpartum hemorrhage, which involves heavy bleeding and spotting after intimacy. It might be due to a retained placenta or infection. Please visit a gynecologist for proper assessment and care.

I'm unsure if my tampon came out or is stuck too far up. I can't feel anything but I know I didn't take it out. What should I do?
Female | 30
If you're uncertain about your tampon, try to gently feel for the string. If you can't locate it or are still unsure, see a healthcare professional promptly for an examination. Avoid attempting removal without guidance to prevent complications.

Hi, I tested with pregnancy test kit on my 3rd day of missed periods and i got slightly red second line. When can i take blood test for confirmation
Female | 31
A red secondary line, even a very light one, can show that a woman is pregnant. It is best to wait at least one week after the missed period to do a blood test for confirmation. This allows your body to produce enough pregnancy hormones that the blood test can detect. If you have pregnancy symptoms like nausea, or breast tenderness, it is also good to mention that to a gynecologist.

Irregular periods i had irregular periods for last 2 month am get periods lastly on April 28 but still i didn't
Female | 21
If you experience irregular periods for more than two months, you should also check if there are any other symptoms you might be feeling. Indeed, the irregular period problems you have are some other problems such as stress, weight changes, and hormonal imbalance. Look after your stress levels, maintain a healthy weight, and counseling with a gynecologist for further advice and help.

I want to remove copper t, can you tell me the changes of the removal copper t
Female | 32
Copper IUD removal might result in the introduction of abnormalities into your menstrual cycle, including heavier periods or cramping, as your body is trying to adjust itself. These side effects are typically short-lived and disappear within a few weeks. The main reason for removal is the discomfort or individual decision about contraception. Therefore, it is necessary to examine one's period, for defects, and report unusual signs. Severe pain or prolonged changes sometimes are an issue you should a gynecologist about it.

Hey I have a periods pain but don’t have blood. It’s takes 2 days but a tiny amount of clot with dark brown aur dirty blood but no regular blood
Female | 23
It seems that you have a condition called a "brown discharge." This can occur when the old blood from your last period gets mixed with your current cycle. Oftentimes, it is not a significant concern. The pain you are feeling might be due to your uterus contracting and getting rid of this old blood. To relieve the pain, you could try using a heating pad or taking non-prescription pain relievers such as ibuprofen. However, if the pain is ongoing or worsening, you should consult a gynecologist for proper treatment.

Pregnant - is it normal getting spotting
Female | 25
This can happen in the first trimester and it's usually harmless. It could be because of the baby's implantation, swollen cervix, or other reasons. However, if there's heavy bleeding, severe pain, or another worrisome symptom you should consult with a gynecologist for proper evaluation and guidance. They can provide personalized care and ensure the health of both the mother and the baby.

Break upper lips of vagina due to past masturbate but no symptoms is a serious issue or not ??and create problem in sex!???And how can we do this
Female | 22
Breaks in the upper lip of the vagina due to a past habit of masturbation are quite common. The good news is, if you do not have any symptoms, it may not be a serious problem. But, it may cause you to feel pain during sex. To help, first of all, keep the region clean and then apply a water-based lubricant during intercourse. The best course of action is to see a gynecologist for advice if any symptoms appear.

My gf has taken Unwanted 72 a day before her period date, so when will her periods come and what to do to get her periods early?
Female | 20
Taking Unwanted 72 before her period can change your girlfriend's cycle. That time may come earlier or later than expected. This medicine can cause irregular bleeding or spotting. It's best not to rush and let her body get used to the natural adjustment. One should encourage her to take a lot of liquids, to have a balanced diet, and at the same time to manage stress. If it's taking too long or she feels any other abnormalities, it is important to seek help from a gynecologist.

I am 15 years old and I am very sexually active. Me and my partner haven’t used protection in a long time. I have been very red, irritated, and itchy down there and it’s very uncomfortable. what should I do? What could it be??
Female | 15
You might have a yeast infection. When the balance of the good and bad bacteria in your body is upset, yeast infections can occur. A burning sensation, redness, and irritation are common symptoms of a yeast infection in your private area. To relieve the discomfort, you may try over-the-counter antifungal creams. It is important to discuss this with a trusted adult or a gynecologist for proper assessment and treatment.

Female | 24
Periods can unexpectedly stop, and pregnancy tests may be negative, but questions still linger. Many factors could be the cause: stress, hormonal imbalances, or weight fluctuations. Symptoms like fatigue, nausea, or tender breasts can also result from various conditions, not just pregnancy. To get clarity, it's important to visit a gynecologist and undergo appropriate tests.

I am 22 year old female, and I have missed my period since 2 months. What are the possible reasons and how to cure it?
Female | 22
Most of the young women go through amenorrhea. Stress, changes in weight, hormonal imbalances, and even excessive exercise could be the possible causes. Furthermore, issues such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) or thyroid dysfunction could be the cause as well. A visit to the gynecologist is a must if you want to be sure of the diagnosis and get proper treatment for this issue.

My pattern took misoprostol on Thursday morning by 7am started having moderate cramping but less bleeding.. around 3pm bleeding come but very less stop
Male | 30
Light bleeding after misoprostol is common. The flow may start slowly, then increase gradually. However, very light or sudden stop could indicate issues like incomplete abortion or hormonal factors. Stay hydrated, take rest. If bleeding doesn't pick up, contact your gynecologist for advice.

Is mifestad 10 effective as an emergency contraceptive pill? It's a pill made from Vietnam.
Female | 23
As for Mifestad 10, it is not an emergency birth control pill. Emergency contraceptive pills can either contain levonorgestrel or ulipristal acetate. If you have had unprotected sex, it's best to use a recognized emergency contraceptive pill to prevent pregnancy. Remember the greater the time between unprotected intercourse and the taking of emergency contraception, the less effective it is.

Female | 17
A late period accompanied by light brown discharge with small blood clots is usually the result of hormonal disbalance, stress or pregnancy.
