Should I See Doctor for 8-Day Late Period?

Hi, nice to meet you, my period is 8 days late, I'm 17, I'm not sexually active, my first period was over three years ago. I read on the internet that I shouldn't worry, since a delay of up to 45 days is considered "normal", should I go to the doctor, or is it not so urgent and I can wait a little longer?Lately it had been regular, with a difference of one or two days when my period arrived.I look forward to your reply, thank you very much in advance.

Sometimes, period blood may be heavier than expected and might even appear green for a short time, especially in newly menstruating teenagers. Stress, weight changes, diet, or exercise can affect your menstrual cycle. If there are no sexual activities or other concerning symptoms, it might be okay to delay medical consultation. However, if you notice sickness or other significant changes, it's important to consult a gynecologist.

I am 21 year old women. My partner and I tried having sex. He put it in raw and moved for two minutes. He didn't cum inside rather pulled out way before. I took a morning after pill an hour later. Few days later I had brown/black discharge for 5 days. What is happening with me? Could I get pregnant?

Female | 21

It is good that you took a morning-afte­r pill. Brown or black discharge is normal after taking the pill. It happe­ns because the pill can change­ your normal cycle. This discharge can also happen be­cause of stress or other things. It doe­s not always mean pregnancy. But if you miss your period, take­ a pregnancy test to be sure­.

I am 25 years old and I have always had regular monthly periods but recently they came early like after a week. They usually come after 25 days. Should I be worried?

Female | 25

menstrual cycles do vary slightly from month to month & changes in the timing or length of periods is due to stress, hormonal imbalances, or other health conditions. There is nothing to worry about, but if you experience persistent changes in your menstrual cycle consistently early or irregular periods it's better to talk to a gynec.

Recovering from dengue fever, one is likely to have irregular periods. However, there should be consultation with a gynecologist to rule out other underlying conditions.

Hello, I am here on behalf of my girlfriend. Story is: Her periods: (January) 18-20 (February) 18-20 (March) 18-20 Then we were physically intimate on 4th April and she took ipll on 6th April. Later, we were physically intimate again on 11th or 12th April and she took ipll again. Yes, she took ipll twice in one month, with a one-week gap. On 13th April, she experienced spotting, very light bleeding, which might have been withdrawal bleeding due to the ipll. It continued for 2-3 days. Then we waited for her next period, which was supposed to come by 13th May, but it was missed. On 16th May evening, we used a home urine test kit which was negative. On 17th May morning, we used another home urine test kit which was also negative. To be sure, we had an hCG test on 18th May, and it reported a level of 7.84/10, which was also negative. We waited, and on 21st May she had a period that was bright red but light, and it continued until 24-25th May. We did another urine pregnancy test on 26th May which was negative. We want to know your viewpoints on this.

Periods Mai. Sex krne ke baad periods aate hai ky?

Female | 18

Yes, it's possible to get your period even if you have sex during your period. Getting your period is a natural part of the menstrual cycle, and it can occur independently of sexual activity.

I am 24 year old female I want a ask that from last few days I have been suffering from pain and burnt in my private part few days befor while I was washing my private part I think little of soap has gone in it so it the pain due to that reason? Will it causes any problem in it ? What should I do which medicine should i use ? Please tell me

Female | 24

Yes the pain and burning sensation is due to irritation from the soap. Soap can sometimes cause irritation and disrupt the natural balance of the sensitive skin in that area. If this happens just rinse the area thoroughly with clean water and avoid using any harsh soaps, fragrances, or other irritants in that area.

I had sex without protection. But once he didn't use protection. He is saying he didn't ejaculate inside. Will i get pregnant?

Female | 19

There is still a risk of pregnancy even if ejaculation doesn't occur inside the vagina. Pre-ejaculate fluid, also known as "pre-cum," can still contain sperm and lead to pregnancy. Get a test done to confirm about pregnancy.
