While the pull-out method reduces the risk of pregnancy, it is not completely reliable. Given your experience with side effects from the emergency contraceptive pill, it might be best to consult a gynecologist before deciding. They can provide the most appropriate advice based on your medical history and current situation.

I am 15 years old female.My periods just ended yesterday and just after that I've been experiencing watery discharge accompanied with itching and some swelling in left labia minora
Female | 15
You might be suffering from a vaginal yeast infection. Developments can take place in women who have such conditions, even in the days following the period. They are defined by the secretion of non-fatty material, unpleasant sensations of the vagina, and the small labia swelling. To relieve the infection use over-the-counter creams for yeast. Don't forget to keep the location clean and dry. Consult a gynecologist for proper treatment.

Hello, I have been taking birth control pills every day for 3 months. I don't drink at the same time every day, but I always drink at night. I took a 7-day break. And on the first day of this seven-day break, we were together and it emptied into me. What are my chances of getting pregnant? Will I get pregnant? Birth control pills are said to protect for 7 days. Should I stop suspecting in this case?My other two questions are: Should I take the morning after pill? If my period doesn't start in this 7-day break, does it mean I'm pregnant?
Female | 21
Yes there is still a possibility of pregnancy, although the risk may be relatively low. Taking the morning-after pill can be an option to further reduce the risk, but it is best to consult with a gynecologist first.

Hi, I want to know adnexal cyst can be treated with surgery only or can it be resolved with any medicine or by its own without treatment. Dr. Has given voltrel, cefixim and trypsin tablets for 5 days and CA- 125 test is been awaited. Pls suggest advice.
Female | 16
Adnexal cysts are sacs filled with fluid. They're located close to the ovaries. Some cause pelvic pain, bloating. Others don't show any signs. Surgery may remove big or painful cysts. But many small ones go away without treatment. Medicines like yours might ease symptoms. Your gynecologist will guide you based on your situation. It's wise to await the CA-125 test results to learn more.

I had sex without penetrating fully on Friday and I feel weak and tired on Sunday...am I pregnant
Female | 17
It is not likely that you're pregnant.... Incomplete penetration doesn't cause pregnancy.. Feeling weak and tired may be due to other factors.... Monitor your symptoms, rest well, and eat healthily.. If symptoms persist, seek medical attention....

I am 19 years old Christina I am a lesbian had rough sex and rn I feel discomfort in my virgina now I’m seeing a yellow spot like flesh inside my virgina which itches and like bumps around the lip of the virgina ! What can I do
Female | 19
I presume that you have a vaginal disease. The discomfort, itching, and the existence of the vulva bubbling and bumps could be due to a yeast infection or a sexually transmitted infection. It's not an option - you should not have sex before a gynecologist's examination. They will examine you and give you the drugs you need to cure the illness.

What is thats means thickened decidualized endometrium
Female | 27
Thickened decidualized endometrium means that the tissue lining your uterus has become thicker than usual because it's preparing for pregnancy. This usually happens during pregnancy or before your period. However, it can also occur due to hormone imbalances or certain medical conditions. When the endometrium thickens like this, it can cause symptoms like heavy periods, irregular spotting, abdominal pain, or trouble getting pregnant. If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, it's important to see a gynecologist.

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.

Breast discharge and pcos
Female | 19
If you have breast discharge, PCOS might be causing it. PCOS makes your body produce excess androgens. Androgens disrupt menstrual cycles, resulting in breast discharge. Symptoms: irregular periods, breast tenderness. Managing PCOS requires medication and lifestyle changes. Get breast discharge checked by a gynecologist. They'll ensure there are no underlying issues.

I am a 25 year old female who is currently 6 weeks pregnant. I have had 2 blighted ovums in 3 years apart. The scan has shown even this pregnancy is a blighted ovum. Is there a possibility of me having a normal pregnancy as I have had 2 blighted ovums already with 2 different partners. Please assist.
Female | 24
Blighted ovum, which is also called the synonym "anembryonic pregnancy," is a situation where a fertilized egg is implanted in the uterus, but the embryo does not develop. I understand your worries about having two blighted ovums one after the other were scary. The most important thing is to consult your doctor, who knows the potential causes and comes up with the possible solutions that allow you to have a healthy pregnancy in the future. You could have further examinations which are done to help decide if there is an underlying factor that is causing this to happen multiple times.

I had unprotected sex on the first day of my period and he cumed in me. Am I pregnant? because I am the showing the symptoms.
Female | 21
I recommend you take a home pregnancy test in case you think you could be positive for pregnancy. In that regard, findings of symptoms are not sufficient for exact confirmation of pregnancy. I advise you to go to the gynecologist for a thorough diagnosis as well as a presentation of the potential options.

So she had sex on 15th of jan which was 4th day of her periods and her partner didnt ejaculated at all and she took pills with 40hrs and got heavy bleeding after two days of taking pills and today is 19th of feb and she hasnt gotten her periods yet . What does this mean?
Female | 18
If your partner did not cum and you had taken emergency contraceptive pills within 40 hours after sex during your period, the pregnancy is very unlikely to happen. Possibly the tablets should blame the bleeding you had rather than your period. You can visit the gynecologist if this area concerns you to get examined and counseled more.

Itching, burning, and pain in the vaginal area may be symptoms of yeast infection, bacterial vaginosis, or sexually transmitted diseases. A gynecologist should be contacted for a precise diagnosis and treatment.

You are likely to develop PCOD if you suffer from polycystic ovarian syndrome. The symptoms correlated with this syndrome are things like acne, hair growth, weight gain, and irregular menstrual cycle. You need to be careful with your diet, exercise regularly, and undergo stress control practice to control PCOD. Alternately, the use of medicines when PCOD progresses may also be needed occasionally.

Hi.I am 29yrs women.I had my last period on 2nd August & on 13th - 14th August I am having spotting like periods & feeling tired,no cramping.Can you plz let me know what could be the reason
Female | 29
You could be suffering from atypical vaginal bleeding. Spotting in between periods can arise for many reasons. Hormonal imbalances, stress, or even Trym's pills can cause this to happen. Fatigue can be a symptom of many other conditions such as anemia or thyroid issues. Monitor your symptoms and see a gynecologist for a correct examination.

my period is 15 days late, when I check with pregnancy kit ,Its show negative. From the date of period white discharge continued about 1 week, then Normal. But now about 2 day ,I feel pain in lower abdomen and back side.
Female | 25
A period being late while the test is negative can occur due to different reasons like stress or changes in hormones. The pain felt in the lower part of the stomach together with the back might be caused by several things such as periods. Ensure you rest well, and drink plenty of water but if the ache continues or becomes severe then visit a gynecologist.

I was wondering what a septated adnexal cyst is and what kind of symptoms you can get from it. I had a partial hysterectomy about 14 years ago. I have been having stomach issues so my Doctor ordered a CT scan and it showed up on the scan.
Female | 45
A septated adnexal cyst is a fluid-filled sac with walls inside it. A hysterectomy can cause this to happen near the ovaries. You might not feel anything or could have a belly ache, bloating, or discomfort. Sometimes they can go away, but other times a gynecologist might suggest more tests or surgery.

My boyfriend and I had sex and he had a little bit of blood on his shaft, it was closer to his stomach so I don't think any went inside me, i haven't had any issues so far and don't have insurance, I just want to know if there's any cause for concern, we are only active with one another for the last 3 years. Thank you
Female | 24
Sometimes, blood during sex can occur due to small cuts or irritation. If no blood enters your body and you feel fine, that's a good sign. However, if you experience any unusual symptoms, it's important to see a gynecologist. Minor tears or friction can cause bleeding, but if you’re okay now, there’s likely no need to worry. Still, it’s best to get checked out if anything seems off later.

I'm having a likoria its been 4 to 5 days
Female | 23
There is an issue where fluid comes out from the private area. This is called likoria. Some signs are colored discharge, feeling uncomfortable, and itchiness. It can stem from infections, hormonal shifts, or not keeping clean. To fix it, keep that area tidy, wear cotton underwear, and don't use scented products there. However, make sure to see a gynecologist to identify the problem and get treatment.
