A brown spotting might be a sign of implantation bleeding, but it is hard to definitively identify without a medical examination. Please talk to your gynecologist

I am 1 months i days pregnant. As I Don't want baby right now I took Isovent 600 last night.I took 4 tablets after per 4 hours.but O Don’t feel any pain or see any blood.what can I don now.?
Female | 35
Taking Isovent (misoprostol) without a doctor's supervision can be dangerous. It may cause symptoms such as cramping, bleeding, nausea, and dizziness. But no pain or blood does not necessarily mean that it worked. It can take time. If there are no symptoms, you can wait a day or two. If there is still no change, get in touch with a gynecologist for directions and to make sure you are okay.

The first day of my last period was 22nd December 2024, and it lasted 4 days. I was supposed to start my next period on 22nd January, 2025. However, I have not had it till today (31st Jan, 2025). I had protected sex on 12th January, in which condoms were used and my partner pulled out at the time of ejaculation. What are the chances I might be pregnant? Should I take a test? Am I just late? History of medical conditions: I have had irregular periods, i.e., a few days late in the past, and my cycles sometimes extended to 39 days. However, this is the longest cycle, and my last two periods have been shorter than usual ( 4 days instead of my usual 5 days). I had intercourse on 12th January with a barrier (condoms) and my partner pulled out at the time of ejaculation. Previous history of current medical complaint: My periods used to be irregular, I have recently gained weight, and I suffer from facial hair growth, etc. I also have taken Plan B pills on 2 separate occasions in the last year. My longest cycle was 39 days, and periods came a couple days after the predicted date. However, this is the longest delay I've experienced in the past. Current medication details: None History of medication for the same complaint: None lab tests done: None Height, Weight Height Weight 5' 3" (160.02 cm) 167 lbs (75.75 kg)

It's understandable to feel concerned about your missed period, especially with a history of irregular cycles. While protected sex reduces the risk of pregnancy, no method is 100% effective. Given your cycle history and recent changes in your body, stress or hormonal fluctuations could contribute to this delay. I recommend taking a home pregnancy test for peace of mind. If it’s negative and your period doesn’t start soon, consider consulting a gynecologist for thorough evaluation and personalized advice.

Hello, Doctor! I am concerned whether I have my menstruation or implantation bleeding because it only lasts for 2 days to fill 2 pads in red color for the whole menstruation. I have done my blood HCG tests 16 days, 23 days and 30 days (21 days after bleeding) after intercourse and also urine tests which are all negative. I have also done my ultrasound 25 days after intercourse. Should I still need to be worried that I am pregnant? Is HCG still too early to detect in blood and urine 30 days after intercourse? Or is it too early for an ultrasound too?
Female | 40
Normally, implantation bleeding is lighter and shorter compared to the usual menstruation flow. A negative HCG test could mean that it’s not a case of pregnancy. The tests may have been carried out too soon for the existence of any pregnancy to be detected. 25 days may also be too soon for an ultrasound. So it's either way too early for these tests or the likelihood is that you are not pregnant. Keep an eye on the symptoms and repeat the test after a week or two for better results.

White discharge after period
महिला | 24
White discharge may come after your period and is not a cause for concern. In most cases, this is a sign that your body is undergoing a cleaning process and shedding old cells. However, one of the factors that can provoke this is the fluctuation of hormones. Nevertheless, in situations where the discharge is also accompanied by a strong smell, itching, or irritation, the best course of action is to consult a gynecologist for a check-up.

Why do I got heavy periods on first day and second day only few?
Female | 23
It is quite normal for the first day periods to be heavier than those that follow. The explanation for this is that the endometrial lining of the uterus completely sheds on day one resulting in heavy menstrual flow. With every day the amount of shedding reduces reducing to a lighter flow. Nevertheless, should you develop unusual heavy bleeding or uncommonly long periods of menstrual flows visited a gynecologist for the assessment and treatment.

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.

I am 35 years old l. I recently took emergency contraceptive I got my period but it wouldn't stopf. I am having period for more than a week now
Female | 35
You are bleeding for more than a week after taking the emergency contraceptive pill. Sometimes, this may be due to the effects of hormonal level changes. Additionally, you may have symptoms such as heavy bleeding and pain. Don't panic, this is usually a temporary condition, as your body gets used to the medication. Ensure you are drinking enough water and are getting enough sleep. If the bleeding goes on for two weeks or more or you feel faint, it is better to consult a gynecologist.

A 25 year old woman sometimes having a very sharp pain in her lower left abdomen and in the groin and when this happens her whole body starts shivering and she having difficulty in breathing and can't talk. When her period is near it becomes worse.
Female | 25
Experiencing sharp lower left abdominal pain accompanied by shivering and difficulty breathing can be concerning, especially if it worsens around your menstrual cycle. These symptoms may suggest issues like ovarian problems, endometriosis, or gastrointestinal concerns. It's crucial to monitor how often these episodes occur and their intensity. I strongly recommend scheduling an appointment with a gynecologist for a thorough evaluation. They can perform necessary tests, provide an accurate diagnosis, and discuss effective treatment options tailored to your needs.

I missed my period this month after had sex last month
Female | 21
You may have missed your period because of pregnancy if you had sex last month. Besides a missed period, other signs are nausea and tender breasts. But stress or hormone changes can make periods late too. To know for certain, take a pregnancy test at home. It's wise to talk to a gynecologist for advice and support about this matter.

If I had unusual period that's lasted 15 days when should I expect my period
Female | 26
Sometimes, periods can last up to fifteen days, which can happen occasionally. This might be due to stress, hormonal changes, or other health issues. You may notice heavy bleeding or spotting. To help regulate your periods, try reducing stress, eating healthy foods, and getting enough rest. If this continues, it's important to consult a gynecologist for guidance.

I have my regular periods and after 48 days i took pregnancy test it shows slight second line... And now iam getting slight bleeding in black color. May i know the reason
Female | 26
A faint line on the pregnancy test can indicate an early pregnancy. The black of a line you are managing could be implantation bleeding when a fertilized egg sticks to the uterus. It is a common thing in the first three months of pregnancy and it's often nothing to worry about. Watch out for it and be gentle with yourself.

I had sexual intercourse on 7 November. I had got my periods on 22 November but in December I have missed my periods what should I do is it concerning or not
Female | 19
It’s common for menstrual cycles to vary due to several factors, including stress, hormonal changes, or lifestyle adjustments. Missing a period can be concerning, especially following recent sexual activity, but it doesn’t always indicate a serious issue. Consider taking a home pregnancy test if you suspect you might be pregnant. Regardless of the result, scheduling an appointment with a gynecologist is a wise choice to discuss your cycle changes and any underlying factors.

Brown discharge during period which appears 2 days earlier
Female | 25
Brown discharge before menstruation commonly occurs due to the expulsion of older blood. Color variations arise as blood stays longer exiting your body, turning brown. Hormonal fluctuations, stress, or infections can cause this delay. While occasional discoloration is normal, frequent occurrences or accompanying pain warrant consulting a gynecologist to rule out underlying conditions.

Bloody discharge with clots and missing periods for two months isn't typical. Hormonal changes, certain medical issues, or stress could be reasons. It's wise to consult a gynecologist. They'll determine the cause and suggest proper treatment.

Always feeling like wanted something to eat.Feeling hunger sometime after eating .but having dizziness.I am 6 week pregnant
Female | 26
During pregnancy, your body goes through changes. You may feel hungry often and dizzy. This is because your blood sugar levels drop. To avoid this, eat small meals frequently. Have healthy snacks like fruits and nuts. Drink lots of water too. This helps keep your blood sugar stable. It also keeps you hydrated. If the symptoms continue or get worse, talk to your gynecologist. Your doctor can guide you better.

After taking emergency contraception, some women experience lighter periods or changes in their cycle, which is normal. Factors such as hormonal shifts can cause this. If your bleeding continues to feel unusual or if you have concerns, it's wise to speak with a gynecologist. They can provide personalized advice and ensure everything is okay.

unprotected sex ia have doubts that can I pregnent
Female | 17
Potential signs of pregnancy include missed periods, nausea, and breast tenderness. Pregnancy occurs when sperm fertilizes an egg, which can happen even from a single encounter. If you’re concerned, I recommend taking a home pregnancy test for clarity. These tests are widely available and provide quick results. If positive, or if you have lingering doubts, please consult a gynecologist. They can offer personalized advice and support. Remember, you're not alone in dealing with this, and professional guidance is always available to help you through your situation.

I had unprotected sex the exact day I was ovulating but then took a plan B ,,,,can I get pregnant?
Female | 23
Having unprotected sex on the day of ovulation can increase the risk of pregnancy. Taking Plan B shortly after can help lower that risk, especially if taken within 72 hours. If you were already ovulating, the chance of pregnancy might be higher. Consult a gynecologist and consider taking a pregnancy test if your period is delayed.
