The day my period was due I did foreplay on that day, now my period is not coming after that.

Female | 18

Stress, alterations in routine, or hormonal imbalances can affect your cycle. At times, periods can be delayed for a few days. In the case of still not having a period for a week, then take a pregnancy test to make sure that it is not a pregnancy. However, the most important is to take care of yourself and be calm.

Miscarriage ho gaya h mara but pregnancy steck me main abhi bi positive a rha h mujhe just ok one day bleeding hoi h us kye bad nhi hoi

Female | 25

Sufferers are indeed likely to feel worried if they get a positive test after a miscarriage. This results from the hanging pregnancy hormone levels. Light bleeding may be due to hormone changes and therefore, it is not the only reason. Be vigilant in watching your symptoms. I think you need to connect with a gynecologist for the treatment and the guidance that is personal for you. They will determine your condition and will be there to help you during this time. Just remember, you don’t need to go through this, and seeking medical advice is the first step to securing your health and wellness.

It seems as though you’re experiencing activity-induced abdominal pain and cramps that are accompanied by white discharge. These signs can be caused by several things, such as a yeast infection or pelvic inflammatory disease. The best thing to do is make an appointment with your gynecologist for an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan.

I'm experiencing old blood (black in colour)during my period from the first day to the fourth day(today)and the flow is same.Also it's the first time this has happened. I'm not bleeding fresh blood, which is concerning. What should I do?Typically, I bleed old blood only on the first day of my period, and by the night of the first day, I start to bleed fresh blood. However, this time, that's not the case, and it's now my fourth day, with only a small amount of old blood compared to my previous menstrual cycles

Female | 24

Old blood appears darker in color. It's normal, but concerning if it's new or frequent. Stress, hormones might cause this. Note it down. If it persists, consult a doctor. Being worried is understandable. Lingering old blood during periods isn't unusual. However, monitor such occurrences. Take advice from healthcare providers if the issue doesn't resolve itself. Sudden changes demand professional opinion. Stay calm, but vigilant.

I am 17 year old girl and I have no period in this month and I have got 2 time period in last month April and I have take mepratie medicine once in a day but haven't got my periods. So what can I do?

Female | 17

There are various reasons why females may miss their menses. Changes in body mass, stress, or fluctuations in hormone levels can lead to irregular menstrual cycles. Additionally, the intake of drugs such as Meprate might also affect menstruation. It’s great that you’re keeping tabs. If your period hasn’t come yet, don’t worry too much. It’d be advisable for you to speak with a gynecologist so that you receive guidance that suits your body best.

I recently had unprotected anal sex. Ejaculate was expelled shortly afterwards and then I took a shower. Less a few hours later, my partner placed a finger in anal cavity and then into my vagina; could this result in a pregnancy? Thanks….

Female | 23

When an egg is fertilized, that is called pregnancy. A sperm can swim and it can live for a little while outside the body. Pregnancy may occur if any sperm gets into your vagina. Keep an eye on strange symptoms such as missed periods or feeling sick (nausea). If you’re concerned, take a pregnancy test to put your mind at ease.

Since months I've been troubling with my vaginal itching.I 've consulted 2or3 doctors but it's repeating everytime.First i noticed it was due to my wet pants from washing after peeing and then i took care of it.Then I thought it might be from the usage of v-wash I stopped using it But it's still itching.

Female | 29

It sounds like you're experiencing persistent vaginal itching, which can be uncomfortable. Causes often include yeast infections, bacterial imbalance, or irritation from products. To alleviate symptoms, ensure proper hygiene by keeping the area dry and wearing breathable cotton underwear. Avoid scented products and consider a probiotic to help maintain natural balance. If the issue continues, it’s important to schedule an appointment with a gynecologist for a thorough examination and potential treatment tailored to your specific needs.

Hi I didn't got my periods yet it's been 2 months still I don't got my periods.

Female | 23

It’s understandable to feel concerned when your menstrual cycle is irregular. Many factors can impact this, including stress, significant changes in weight, hormonal imbalances, or underlying health conditions. Symptoms can vary, but it's important to monitor any unusual signs. Addressing lifestyle factors like diet, physical activity, and stress management can be helpful. However, if your cycle doesn’t resume soon, I encourage you to consult a gynecologist. They can provide a thorough evaluation and appropriate guidance tailored to your situation.

Hello sir / madam. My girlfriend started her periods on saturday evenings and ended her periods on Tuesday so we had unprotected sex on Friday morning and after sex I gave her I pill is she safe from pregnancy

Female | 27

Starting on a Saturday and closing on Tuesday is a typical cycle. In addition, having unprotected sex near the period can result in pregnancy. After sex, you can give her a morning-after pill; this will lower but not eliminate the chances of conception. Remember, every instance of unprotected intercourse carries with it the risk of becoming pregnant. Should she develop any strange signs or miss her next period, the best thing would be to take a test at home or go see a gynecologist who will provide further help.

I am a 24 year old female Got a vaginal fungal infection since past two three months Took antibiotic doses And a treatment But no betterment

Female | 24

From the way you tell it, it appears that the annoyance you have been experiencing is due to a fungal infection which can cause symptoms like itching, irritation, and abnormal discharge. The antibiotics can be both good and bad, as the natural flora and the vaginal flora may be destroyed but on the other hand, they can lead to residual yeast growth. Consider the use of antifungal drugs, and probiotics, and maintaining good hygiene to treat it. So, trying to avoid self-diagnosis and treatment, I suggest you take a visit to a gynecologist to fix a problem and tailor your treatment.

I am rly itchy (down there but like inside) and I have a smell and thick white discharge and it’s been like this for about a week

Female | 17

It seems that you’ve got a yeast infection. Yeast are small organisms that can live in warm, humid places like inside your body. The overgrowth of them is the cause of itchiness, thick white discharge, and a smell. You may experience this more after taking antibiotics or wearing tight clothes. You can get over-the-counter creams to help treat it, but if it doesn't get better, it's important to talk to a gynecologist. Besides, wearing loose cotton underwear and avoiding perfumed products can help with the prevention of these infections in the future.

I am 28 years .I want to concive for 2nd time . I am trying for 2 months .

Female | 28

Trying for a sibling and not getting pregnant immediately is completely normal. Two months isn't a long time, so there is no need to worry too much yet. To increase your chances, you should track your ovulation period, have sex during that time, stay healthy, and avoid stress. Additionally, the partner should be healthy as well.

Actually from past 3 weeks im having vaginal infection

Female | 22

This condition might be caused by either a yeast infection or a bacterial infection. A yeast infection occurs when there is an overgrowth of yeast in the vagina, while harmful bacteria can cause bacterial infections. It’s important to see a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and treatment. They may prescribe medicines or creams to help with the infection and reduce symptoms. Additionally, wearing cotton underwear and washing the genital area with clean water regularly can promote a healthy lifestyle. Engaging in other activities can also help you manage discomfort and reduce stress.

I had an intercourse on oct 24th which only includes anal penetration and rubbing at that region. There was no direct contact between penis and vagina. I had bleeding on Nov 8th dec 6th jan 3rd and Feb 2nd and the flow seemed to be normal. Also did a urine pregnancy test on Dec 30 showed negative results and out of my anxiety did an ultrasound scan at a clinic and they said no pregnancy is found. But I'm still anxious and can't convince my self about no pregnancy occurred. My doubt is even if there is a cryptic pregnancy and not found in tests would it have been identified in scans when done around 13 weeks after intercourse? Can it completely rule out pregnancy even in cases of retroverted uterus.

Female | 20

It's understandable to feel anxious after such experiences, but based on the information you've provided, your negative pregnancy tests and ultrasound results strongly suggest that pregnancy is highly unlikely. Bleeding episodes can occur for various reasons unrelated to pregnancy. Cryptic pregnancies are rare, and an ultrasound at 13 weeks would typically identify a pregnancy, even with a retroverted uterus. To alleviate your concerns further, consider scheduling a follow-up appointment with a gynecologist. They can provide reassurance and help address any lingering worries you may have.

Hi, i have been on birth control ( the pill Alessna) for years, im in between periods and over the past few days/ almost week i’ve had very light spotting m, not enough for a tampon but if i pee or wood there is slight blood, and if i wrap my finger with toilet paper and insert, there is blood….. what might this be?!

Female | 25

Spotting between periods on birth control is pretty normal. It may occur because your body adjusts to the hormones. Stress or missing pills cause it sometimes too. But usually, it's nothing serious. If bleeding gets heavier or lasts, 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.
