Answered by Dr. Nisarg Patel

After discontinuing birth control pills, experiencing a short episode of bleeding could be a result of your body adjusting to the change in hormones. But due to unprotected sex recently there's a risk of pregnancy. Take a pregnancy test after 10-14 days and consult a gynecologist for guidance on birth control options.

My breast is bringing out breastmilk please can u prescribe a drugs that can stop it

Female | 27

You may have a condition known as galactorrhea, which is the case when your breasts produce milk even when you are not breastfeeding. The most common reasons are hormonal imbalances, some medications, thyroid problems, or even stress. In this situation, your doctor might recommend medication to adjust your hormone levels to normal. It's essential to get in touch with a gynecologist who will be able to find the root cause and prescribe the right treatment.

I had sex on last day of my period and i took a birth control pill but after 5 days i had little dark brown spotting for 2 days is this what?

Female | 19

It's quite natural for some mild spotting to occur after intercourse, especially towards the end of your cycle. The dark brown spotting you got could be some of the blood from earlier times coming out. It is nothing to worry about, and it sometimes occurs when your body is getting used to the birth control pill. It will probably pass away by itself in a little while.

Female | 32

A large ovarian cyst during pregnancy is one of those conditions that most people might wonder how one could cope with. Every woman feels the lack of some or other thing; some women have problems in these areas or have a high level of stress, while others might be puffy or dense but if not, the majority of them are harmless and can be eliminated without medical intervention. Your gynecologist will check your condition by conducting the necessary imaging tests and listening to your complaints.

Me and my wife had sex on 10th day after her periods started we used condom and now she have bleeding for past 2 days is there anything to worry?

Female | 24

If the intercourse was rough, it could just be irritation making itself known, or possibly even a small tear in your partner’s vaginal wall. Look out for any sign that it might have been more than that, like if there’s pain at all beyond normal discomfort during sex, or weird discharge afterward.

Female | 26

At one month pregnant, you may experience symptoms like nausea, fatigue, frequent urination, and mild cramps, which are normal. These occur due to hormonal changes as your body begins to support a developing fetus. It's essential to maintain a balanced diet, stay hydrated, and rest as needed. Gentle exercise, like walking, can also be beneficial. If symptoms become severe or you have any concerns, please consult your gynecologist. They can provide personalized advice and ensure everything is progressing well.

I am 7 weeks pregnant. I woke up due to intense cramping all over my stomach, mainly upper. I could still move and talk normally. Now they have gone down but I still feel it like my stomach is tight and when I press, it hurts more. Could you please give me some insight?

Female | 27

You're experiencing pain around the round ligaments, which is common during pregnancy. This happens as your body adapts to support your growing baby. When the ligaments stretch, they can cause cramping and tightness in your stomach. To relieve the pain, try lying on your side, taking a warm bath, or doing gentle stretches. Make sure to stay hydrated, and if the pain doesn't improve or gets worse, consult a gynecologist.

Late periods happen, even while on the pill. Maybe you're stressed. Or gained weight, changed hormones. Relax – irregular cycles are normal. But if there's unusual bleeding or severe pain, check a pregnancy test, or visit a gynecologist. Otherwise, no worries. Your body will realign in time.

I am a 27 year old female. I have been experiencing severe abdominal pain, followed by back pains and spotting. I was recently diagnosed with with endometritis and have been on both levofloxacin and metronidazole however, neither medication has worked. I still experience pain and bleeding. I am currently taking tramacete and olfen to help manage the pain but have not yet been prescribed new medication. I have done an ultrasound which came back clear and also tested my urine which showed that there were crystals found.

Female | 27

Your severe abdominal pain, back, and spotting can be the symptoms of endometritis, which is an infection in the lining of the uterus. It is crucial to look for a new treatment since the medications you have used so far have not worked. The crystals found in your urine may mean you have kidney stones, which can also be the reason for similar symptoms. Talk to a gynecologist about these findings for further evaluation and the best course of action.

Hot flushes might make you experience a sudden burst of warmth, even when not physically active. These feelings usually occur in women near menopausal age. Hormonal shifts cause hot flushes to transpire. To alleviate discomfort, try these tips: wear lightweight garments, utilize a fan, and abstain from spicy cuisine and caffeinated beverages. Remember, consulting with a gynecologist can provide additional guidance and support.

Am 25 year on sep I used emergency pills and from that date I have not got my period and I have tested pregnancy and am negative what could be the problem

Female | 25

It’s understandable to feel concerned about changes in your menstrual cycle after using emergency contraception. Sometimes, these pills can cause temporary hormonal imbalances, affecting your period. Stress, diet, or underlying health issues can also play a role. Since home pregnancy tests are negative, it’s a good sign but not definitive. I recommend monitoring your situation for a few more weeks. If you don’t see your period or have other symptoms like pain, it’s important to consult a gynecologist for a thorough evaluation and guidance tailored to you.
