Answered on 26th July '24
The 17th starting and the 20th ending period is a pretty normal cycle. Having unprotected sex on the 22nd might expose you to the risk of getting pregnant. So, watch for possible symptoms like nausea, fatigue, and breast tenderness. If you're concerned, think about using emergency contraception or taking a pregnancy test.

When should I take a pregnancy test being 11 days late and sexually active?
Female | 16
If 11 days have passed since the date of the expected period but you have done the love deeds, it is a good idea to check whether you are pregnant. Irregular periods and being sexually active are among the most common signs of pregnancy. You can be pregnant if you haven't used a condom while you have sex. Pregnancy tests that you can do at home are an accurate method to find out. The tests reveal pregnancy hormones in your urine.

Hello, I’m 20 years old, so recently a month back I got a copper iud placed. Recently me and my partner had unprotected sex on the 12th of this month and even since then I’ve been experiencing light bleeding and red and brown discharge, and as of these last few days I’ve been experiencing just brown discharge/ spotting and two days late on my period because I have a tracker and my last period was from August 2nd -8th, I took a pregnancy test and it came out negative, but I’m still concerned about my health
Female | 20
After copper IUD insertion, changes in your menstrual cycle are quite normal. The light bleeding and brown discharge could be because of your body getting used to the IUD. Besides stress, some other factors can also be the reason for irregularities. The negative pregnancy test is a good sign. Watch your symptoms and think about talking to your gynecologist if they worsen for more help.

hi! i understand that chlamydia can also cause itching and abnormal discharge just like yeast infections i'm also aware that fluconazole is for yeast infections since they share similar symptoms can fluconazole treat the itching and discharge but not the std itself? i'm really just curious and trying to understand
Female | 22
Chlamydia and yeast infections can both cause itchiness and strange smelly discharge. Fluconazole is the one that is mostly for yeast infections. Well, it may relieve you of the itching and discharge from a yeast infection. Still, it won't cure chlamydia. Chlamydia is a sexually transmitted infection that is treated by specific antibiotics. If you have an infection, it's best to consult a dermatologist for the right diagnosis and treatment.

Female | 17
During the teenage years, it is normal for periods to be irregular. Stress, diet and changes in routine can affect the timing. If you have had protected intimacy or other symptoms like acne, weight changes or excessive hair growth, it might be good to consider talking to a gynecologist.

Female | 16
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 a watery discharge during intercourse on the 10th day of the menstrual cycle, followed by the consumption of Unwanted 72 emergency contraceptive pill, lead to bleeding on the 12th of May? Is this bleeding a sign of withdrawal bleeding or should it be a cause for concern?

Male | 26
If you have had sexual intercourse with someone having a yeast infection, there is a certain risk of infection. Health problems related to sex can be best dealt with by gynecologists or health professionals with expertise in sexual health.

I have tender breast for a week what could be the problem
Female | 34
Breast tenderness might result from hormonal shifts. This frequently occurs during menstrual cycles or with certain medications. Sometimes, it indicates pregnancy or a breast infection. To reduce discomfort, wear a supportive bra. Apply warm compresses. Avoid caffeine. If tenderness persists or worsens, consult a gyneoclogist for evaluation.

Previously hyperthyroidism patient from last 2 yr... Period cycle only last for 10-12 days gap that is happening twice a month, sudden lower abdomen pain, belly fat increased, frequently itching in the labia part, tired all day, from 8- 9 days bleeding not stopped..
Female | 19
You may be having numerous bodily changes. The signs you described–like shorter periods, more belly fat, itching in the private area, and constant fatigue–could be a result of irregular hormones. Ailments such as those related to the thyroid gland or other hormone shifts may cause these irregularities.

i was on antibiotics a few days ago and i should have my period in 3 days time. note that i am on bc pill. i was having abdominal cramps and lots of bloating and feeling nauseated. i have experienced pink discharge 2 days ago (which i usually have before my period starts) and now when i poop i have blood coming out my vagina (which looked like when i have my period). not sure if it is a type of discharge, but it looks more like period blood. however during the night i do not bleed at all and not even now. what is happening?
Female | 20
You may experience irregular vaginal bleeding. This can occur when taking birth control pills along with antibiotics. Antibiotics could affect how the pills work, causing unexpected bleeding. The pink discharge and bleeding during bowel movements might relate to this. If bleeding persists or worsens, consult your gynecologist promptly.

We had sexual intercourses..after 12 hours i took unwanted72 pill..just after 1 hour of taking the pill we had sex again..is there any chance of pregnancy?? Or i need to take one more pill?
Female | 20
It is good you took the emergency pill like Unwanted 72 soon after the unprotected sex. The pill works great when taken within 12 hours. Taking it quickly means the chances of getting pregnant are low for you. You do not need to take another dose. Keep an eye out for any odd signs like feeling sick or tender breasts. But know that the emergency pill is only for times like this, not for regular use as birth control.

Monthly Menstrual cycle of my wife is complete once and bleeding starts again after 3 days... I am worried about her condition now... Suggest me what to do
Female | 36
Women can sometimes have irregular cycles, however, if your wife finishes the cycle after just three days of having her period, it could be a sign of underlying medical conditions such as hormonal imbalances, uterine fibroid, and infection. I recommend you visit a gynecologist first to undergo a thorough investigation and the provision of the relevant treatment.

I'm 21 years old female, I'm facing delay in my periods for 8-9 days. I had protected sex but still I'm not getting my periods. My pregnancy test was negetive.What may be the reason for not getting my periods?
Female | 21
Sometimes it happens that a period might be delayed. Stress, falling weight, or hormonal changes can be the factors behind it. If you had safe sex, and the test showed no pregnancy, it is most unlikely to get pregnant. Thyroid issues, PCOS, and too much exercise could also be the other reasons to delay periods. Try to ease, eat healthily, and work off weight. If this continues, make an appointment with a gynecologist.

I have a question on pregnancy.... We are try to conceive but we are getting any positive result till now. 3 years completed our marriage
Female | 30
Trying to get pregnant without success is frustrating. When it takes over a year, it may be due to reproductive issues in either partner. Common causes include irregular ovulation, low sperm quality, or problems with the uterus or fallopian tubes. Seeing a fertility specialist is best. They can determine the specific reason and explore treatment options.

why one of my inner vagina lips is a little bit bigger than the other and kind of darker in color
Female | 17
This doesn't typically cause issues or discomfort. It occurs because bodies aren't perfectly symmetrical. However, if you experience pain or discomfort, it could indicate an infection or injury. If it concerns you, consulting a gynecologist can provide more details and reassurance.

I, a girl was masturbating using a toy but suddenly start bleeding and the blood was not in huge or small quantity but still a lot blood
Female | 21
If you see blood when playing with a sex toy, don’t fret. Sometimes, not using enough lube or having too much friction can create small tears in the delicate tissues. These tears may result in some bleeding. Make sure to use a lot of lubricant next time and take it slow – you don’t want this happening again. Chances are everything is fine if it only happened once or twice, but if it keeps happening often then maybe talk to a gynecologist about things to make sure everything is still okay.

I'm 20 weeks pregnant with twins. My stomach become more hard suddenly
Female | 25
Please see your Obstetrician as soon as possible. The toughening of the stomach during pregnancy can be a symptom of Braxton Hicks contractions, but they do no harm and are normal. However, it can be a signal of early labor and preterm birth along with severe pain, pain, bleeding, and discharge.
