It is quite normal to get anxious when you have not received your period after childbirth, especially if it has been 7 months already. The most common reason for this is a hormonal imbalance if the pregnancy test is negative and you are not breastfeeding. Your body might still be undergoing adjustment after childbirth. This can be a determining factor of your periods. Stress and/or thyroid problems might be the cause as well. Be sure you are eating good food and getting enough sleep. If this goes on, it's a good idea to see your gynecologist so they can help you figure out the best treatment plan for you.

Questions & Answers on "Gynaecology" (4237)

I was a virgin until May 5, 2024. My partner and i tried to have sex, but in his words, he never came at the same time he did not have precum. He also said that he did not put it in all the way. (Before i continue, a little back story, i have this 21 hormonal pill pack. I know we have the 21 and the 28 pack. I have the 21. I use this pack to regulate my period since i have PCOS also prescribed by my doctor. Though for the past few months feb-may i should be off my pills to see if my period regulated again ordered by my doctor. I had no period on feb and march but did on april.) After 2 hrs of unprotected sex, i took 1 pill from the 21 pill pack that i have. Then 4 days later i took 5 pills for 5 consecutive days. Then stopped after the 5 days. (Back story: in the 21 pill pack, you have a 7 day break to wait to get your period. Sometimes it comes within the 7 days. Sometimes it comes after the 7 days. After the 7 day break you have to restart and take a pill and continue for 20 more days as said in the instructions. With period or not). So the 5 days were May 10,11,12,13,14. On May 22 i got my period. When i checked the calendar i realized there was a 7 day break in between before i got my period. My period started on May 22 and ended on May 26. And i know it was my period because, it looked like my period everytime i get it. Dark red blood, blood clots, lasted 3-5 days, abdominal cramps with matching lower back pain, bleeding through my pad. Smelled like my period everytime i get it. Questions: 1. Is there a possibility for pregnancy? 2. Did i mess up my hormones? 3. Did i mess up my PCOS? 4. How is it possible that i took 5 pills from a 21 pill pack had the 7 day break and had my period?

There isn’t much of a chance that you’re pregnant. Your partner didn’t ejaculate, and there wasn’t any pre-cum. Also, your period came on time. If you take extra pills or have breaks in your pack, it can sometimes affect your hormones. However, only making this kind of short-term change may not result in long-term problems. Getting your period after taking 5 pills and then going off them could have caused some hormonal changes but if eventually things evened out when it came back.

I am 18 year girl. I am on my period but my period flow is very less.It's 3rd day but today no bleeding.I am very worried. I also take iron supplement from tomorrow. Am I pregnant?

Female | 18

Sometimes, a light period or no bleeding at all on the third day could occur due to several reasons not related to pregnancy. Stress, changes in lifestyle, or hormonal changes can be some of the factors. A pregnancy test would be the best way to know if you are worried about being pregnant.

Why is it that I am not getting my periods after having sex yet I took backup emergency pills

Female | 22

Emergency pills can alter menstrual cycle.. Common side effect. Some women may not get their period on time. Wait for at least a week or two. Take a pregnancy test to confirm. Consult with a medical professional if concerned.

I have too small belly in 17 week of pregnancy

Female | 20

Toward the middle of the pregnancy, a smaller belly at 17 weeks might trouble you. If a belly is small, it can be because of the baby’s position, the way your body is holding the baby, or many other reasons. In the majority of cases, it's not a big deal when your health conditions are within normal limits. Continue to eat well and go to all of your pregnancy medical check-ins to ensure that you and your baby are healthy.

I am a female i had unprotected sex on the 27th October and got my period the next day which lasted for 3 days but then few days later i started having mild cramps on my middle stomach and sides and i took 2 birth control pills a few days later i had ovulation after from which i am experiencing frequent urination, head aches, stomach pains that come and go, as well as some constipation problems, i also started to eat a lot now. i did take a test which was negative on the 8th day after my period ended

Female | 18

It's unlikely you're PREGNANT.... Mild cramps normal after sex. BIRTH CONTROL pills affect hormones. It's normal to have symptoms after ovulation. Stress can cause constipation and headaches. Negative test may be too early. Keep an eye on symptoms..

You may need to go and visit a gynecologist for an examination and check. The expert can diagnose the root cause and suggest suitable medication for each person depending on his or her specific condition.
