Is missed period post-tubal ligation normal at 36?
I am a 36 year old female, I had a tubal ligation 9 years ago. My periods have come as per normal since than. However my period have not come for the last 3 months. Please advise if this due to my tubal ligation?

Answered on 23rd May '24
It is unusual for a tubal ligation to directly result in a change of your menstrual cycle. Several things can cause missed periods including stress, hormonal imbalances, or pregnancy. Go see a gynecologist for a check-up so that they can tell you what has brought about these changes in your body.

It is crucial to keep that area clean to avoid any infections. The pain and cut you are feeling might be irritated by nail contact. Gently clean the area by using warm water and don't use any creams without telling your doctor first. If the pain stays or you see any redness or swelling, it's better to go to a gynecologist for the right diagnosis and treatment.

Misoprostol and Mifepristone remain detectable via bloodwork for days after use. The test could show traces up to seven days post-medication. Expect nausea, cramping, bleeding – typical effects. Severe symptom onset demands medical attention promptly. Closely adhere to gynecologist's guidance. Attend all follow-up appointments as scheduled without fail.

I have swelling just above my vginal opening , wht us it or is it serious problem? What should I do now ??
Female | 22
You may be suffering from a disorder called a Bartholin cyst. This lump can sometimes form right above your vagina when the Bartholin's gland gets blocked. The region could be sensitive, and you may feel a slight lump. Usually, Bartholin cysts are harmless and can be treated with warm compresses and soaking in the bathtub. If the swelling persists or continues to get bigger, it's advisable to see a gynecologist to find out the other treatment options. Remember to avoid squeezing or popping the cyst yourself; this may result in an infection.

It is normal to miss a period occasionally. Lots of things such as stress, weight changes, or too much exercise can do this; however, if you start feeling unwell in any way – especially if it is accompanied by dizziness – now would be a good time to see your gynecologist about things like that.

I am 21 years old, im having a severl menstrual pain, what should i do.
Female | 21
Menstrual cramps, known as dysmenorrhea, affect many women. Symptoms include belly cramps, backaches, and fatigue. These occur as the womb contracts to shed its lining. To relieve discomfort, try using heat pads on your belly, taking over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen, and doing light exercises. Stay hydrated, rest well, and eat healthy, nutritious meals. Limit caffeine and sugary foods. If severe pain persists or lasts abnormally long, consult a gynecologist promptly.

Female | 37
You're experiencing unusual changes in your menstruation, such as two days of bleeding followed by spotting after 14 days, which isn't normal. Cramping, headaches, feeling hot, and fatigue could be due to hormonal imbalances or other issues. Stay hydrated, eat healthily, and manage stress. It's important to see a gynecologist to discuss your symptoms and get the right treatment.

Hello I am Sania shaikh I am 20 years old. I had intercourse with my partner without protection 1 month ago and yet 1 month completed and I not got my periods on time so please help me to get my periods. I am very scared please help me. Which pills to take to get my periods to come.
Female | 20
Missing periods after unprotected sexual intercourse can be a sign of pregnancy. Breast tenderness and nausea are also possible. To help your periods come on, there are emergency contraceptive pills that are available on the market. These pills can work to stop a pregnancy if the woman takes them within a specific period after intercourse. Nevertheless, it’s crucial to consult a gynecologist for appropriate advice and treatment.

My boyfriend and I had unprotected sex for 4 days and he ejeculated inside me all those days and I took the plan b 5 days after it happened , can I be pregnant ?
Female | 24
Plan B is most effective when used as soon as possible after unprotected sex — preferably within 72 hours. It prevents pregnancy by postponing ovulation. However, it is essential to remember that it is not 100% effective. If you miss your period or notice any unusual symptoms, make sure to take a pregnancy test.

me and my boyfriend have an amazing sex life but recently my vagina is really tight and it hurts to have sex, the pain started last week and till today it hurts. we can only have sex once and thats it. its an uncomfortable pain
Female | 18
It is quite usual to experience some discomfort during intercourse but prolonged pain should be checked out. Tightness and aching during intercourse could be a symptom of a medical problem such as vaginismus or a pelvic infection. I recommend you to visit to a gynecologist to get the right diagnosis and proper treatment.

I took ecp due to which i faced irregular bleeding.now i start taking diaen.its 1st day.how many days it will take to stop blee
Female | 27
It's not uncommon to experience irregular bleeding after taking emergency contraception. This can occur due to hormonal changes. Starting your new medication, Diaen, may help regulate your cycle, but the duration of bleeding can vary from person to person. Typically, irregular bleeding can last a few days up to a week. Stay hydrated, maintain a balanced diet, and monitor your symptoms. If bleeding continues or worsens beyond a week, it’s important to consult with a gynecologist for personalized advice and reassurance.

Female | 30
Itching and burning sensations could indicate a yeast infection. This condition occurs when yeast multiplies excessively. One-sided swelling may also suggest an infection. Hormonal shifts, antibiotic usage, or a weakened immune system can also contribute to yeast overgrowth. Fortunately, over-the-counter creams, and pills effectively treat yeast infections. Maintaining cleanliness and dryness in the affected region is crucial for preventing further irritation.

Hello, me and my boyfriend had unprotected sex around 18 weeks ago we urinated between each time and we used the pull out method. We had it the day before my period began and it came the next day as expected and ive been getting “periods” each month since. I have also been taking regualar pregnancy test until a few days ago always using the first urination of the day. They have all been negative. And i havent been getting any other symptoms. Although I have been very bloated each day and it wont go away although I can suck in my stomach and it does. Im anxious about cryptic pregnancy and the “hook” effect and im not sure what to do next or what to think im convinced im pregnant although ive no way to know for certain. Ive been getting my “period” at thr expected time each month but ive been told by some women they had their periods throughout their oregnancy im very anxious and not sure what to do i just need a direct detailed answer and cant get in touch with my GP.
Female | 18
Based on the information you provided, it's unlikely that you're pregnant. You've been having regular periods since the incident, and all your pregnancy tests have been negative. The fact that you're experiencing bloating doesn't necessarily indicate pregnancy, as bloating can be caused by various factors like diet, hormones, or stress. If you're still worried, it's essential to consult with a gynecologist for further guidance and possibly a more accurate test, such as a blood test.

I am taking krimson 35 everyday how can i have my periods ?
Female | 27
Taking Krimson 35 doesn't mean you can't have periods. It helps with hormone issues, but you can trigger a period by stopping the pill for around 7 days. Your body adjusts to the hormone change, so light bleeding is normal. However, if bleeding seems heavy or unusual, check with your gynecologist. Krimson 35 allows control over your cycle, but concerns should always be addressed promptly.

Female | 23
It's common for periods to be irregular sometimes. Stress, changes in weight, or hormonal imbalances can be the reasons for irregularity. If you have other symptoms like fatigue, headaches, or acne, you might have a hormonal imbalance. To help regulate your period, eat good food, exercise, and reduce stress. If this continues, it's best to check in with a gynecologist.

I am 16 year old female. I am having bleeding after my mensuration.I also have smelly discharges from vagina. Are these symptoms of cancer?
Female | 16
It's natural to be worried about odd symptoms. Slight bleeding following the menstrual cycle and unusual discharge could be from hormonal variations, infections, or other minor problems. Sometimes these signs do not necessarily indicate the presence of cancer, however, warranting that one takes good care of their body is essential. One of the most effective strategies for preventing bad hygiene and tracking your symptoms can be very helpful. I would suggest that you go to a gynecologist who will carry out a comprehensive examination.

for a whole week straight, my labia has been itchy. i have also been having white sticky discharge and sometimes it could be a faint yellow. there is no odor and no pain, just itchiness. today, i felt a bump like feeling on my labia and i’m guessing it’s a cyst.
Female | 17
Itching and discharge could mean a yeast infection. A common issue, causing irksome itchiness, thick yellowish gunk, and sometimes bump too. Over-the-counter antifungal creams can provide relief. Keeping clean and dry down there also helps. Drink lots of water, and wear breathable cotton undies.
