Is home abortion safe with iron deficiency & iron tablets?
I had my last period on October 18th, and I had unprotected sex on October 26th. On November 24th, I took a pregnancy test, which showed two lines, confirming that I am pregnant. I want to terminate this pregnancy, and I am considering a home abortion using pills. However, I have some concerns because I had an iron deficiency and was taking iron tablets for about two to three months. Given this, is it safe for me to proceed with a home abortion by taking pills?

Iron deficiency can make different medical treatments more dangerous, including abortion pills. The main issue is increased bleeding, which is a dangerous effect of having low iron. Before taking home abortion pills, it is very important to consult a gynecologist. It may help you with iron and also show you the best choices for termination.

There are no interactions seen between the oral contraceptive pill containing levonorgestrel and the levetiracetam. So, normal dose of contraceptive preparations can be used in patients on levetiracetam. For more information you can visit your nearest gynecologist.

If girl not do mastrubation and not do sex at agr of 20 than her hymen got tight
Female | 18
In cases where a girl has not engaged in any sexual activities or masturbation before the age of 20, she might experience a sensation of tightness in her hymen when she attempts to have sex. The hymen supplies a faint tear, therefore, the possibility that in the course of having physical intimacy, it does not stretch greatly could surface. Nevertheless, it's completely normal, and thus no need for concern.

I had unprotected sex on 6th oct then next day I took I pill tablet on 7th oct on 13th oct I got withdrawal bleeding and stop on 16th oct and Today is 14th nov still not get period why??
Female | 23
I-pill is not 100% effective and has side effects involving changes in menstrual cycles. I-pill often causes delayed periods as a side effect. I would advise seeking the opinion of a gynecologist for consultation and evaluation to exclude other latent conditions.

What does it mean when I have a dark brown discharge 2 days before my period
Female | 23
A dark brown discharge can happen sometimes before your period. It usually happens when old blood mixes with vaginal discharge. This may be caused by hormones changing or leftover blood from your last period. If you're worried, write down your symptoms and talk to a gynecologist. Always keeping track of your period can help.

Surviving the most difficult parts of life has become a lot easier. However, when it comes to lower abdomen pain as a symptom, it is important to schedule an appointment with a gynecologist to rule out the possibility of any underlying condition.

My period is missed 5 days so which day i will check and one more doubt it's missed periods sexual joined or not???
Female | 27
Your period being 5 days late is noteworthy. Missed cycles happen due to pregnancy, stress, sudden weight fluctuations, or hormonal irregularities. Additional indicators may involve nausea, breast tenderness, and fatigue. Verifying pregnancy requires a home test. A negative result yet continued absence of menstruation warrants consulting a gynecologist for assessment.

My partner and I had protected intercourse on August 10, 2024. To be cautious, I took an emergency contraceptive pill within 20 hours. My period came on August 19 as usual. However, on September 8, I noticed a small, watery discharge from my nipples when pressed, but no pain. I’ve been getting my periods regularly with cramps, and today I took an Apollo pregnancy test which showed a single control line. Is this normal? Should I be worried about the nipple discharge, or is everything okay now?and still have little nipples discharge when pressed
Female | 21
It's good you chose an emergency contraceptive pill that helped you to get your period. Nipple discharge, when pressed, is not a common symptom and could be due to hormonal changes, such as prolactin levels. The test showed one line and your periods are regular, so it is less likely to be the case of pregnancy. If nipple discharge continues or you notice other changes, then you should consider seeing a gynecologist for further evaluation.

I am currently on phentermine for weight loss and metformin for insulin resistance. I also take vitamins b12,d3,water pills,and vaginal ph balance vitamins. I'm currently on the depo Provera birth control shot once every 3 months. My last shot was feb.13th. I have had more frequent headaches for 2 weeks and ive lost a lot of weight the past 2 weeks and im also very fatigued everyday. To add to it. Ive been more emotional and moody. My moods are all over the place. I recently had bleeding for about 8 days (march22nd to April 1st) it wasn't heavy at all (I didn't need a pad or anything), but it was red. Not dark. Bright light red. It had suddenly started. Lasted for 8 days and then suddenly stopped. I never bleed because im on depo. Maybe an occasional spotting for a few hours every 3 or 4 months, but never actual bleeding. I thought it was odd so I took a pregnancy test. Faint positive. So took 4 more and they were all faint positives. Both red and blue dye tests. I had no cramping while I was bleeding, but now I'm having slight tightness in my lower belly and some upper back pain. Dull back pain. What could this possibly mean?
Female | 23
You need to go to the gynecologist for professional assessment. According to the symptoms, phentermine, metformin, and Depo Provera may be hindering your menstrual cycles and hormonal balance. Blood and home pregnancy test kits may indicate the chance of pregnancy, but confirmation with additional tests is important.

My period started on Saturday evening it’s normally 8/9 days. I took the morning after pill on Sunday during the day then my period stopped completely no blood or anything. I had sex on Tuesday the guy cam inside me. My period hasn’t come back at all. Since yesterday I’ve been getting period cramps but no blood is coming out. There was a time I was pregnant and had a miscarriage and I was having period cramps but no blood was coming out. Is pregnancy possible or my period will come eventually
Female | 25
The morning-after pill can sometimes change your period. Pregnancy is possible if you have unprotected sexual intercourse, especially during the period when you are most fertile. Cramps experienced with no period could either be a sign of pregnancy or other health problems. It's always best to take a pregnancy test to be sure. If you're anxious, it can be helpful to talk to a gynecologist.

If your tubes are tied, the chances of becoming pregnant are significantly reduced. However, it's important to note that no contraceptive method is 100% effective. If you are experiencing symptoms take a pregnancy test to confirm.

Female | 22
Heavy periods might mean that you have something called polycystic ovary syndrome or fibroids. These issues can make getting pregnant more difficult. Talk to a gynecologist who will be able to carry out some tests to figure out why you have heavy periods and help you conceive again.

Vaginal itching since last three months moderate
Female | 32
Vaginal itching may be caused by different situations like yeast infections, and bacterial infections, or may be due to irritants like soaps and detergents. Use underwear made of cotton, no scented products, and keep the area clean and dry. If none of these options work, consult a gynecologist to get the correct treatment.

i am having pcos..and want to conceive....pls suggest medicines .....for that
Female | 30
Conceiving with PCOS is hard, but it is possible with certain approaches. PCOS might cause irregular periods, weight gain, and difficulty getting pregnant because your ovaries make too many male hormones. Your doctor can prescribe drugs that help regulate your menstrual cycle and increase the odds of regular ovulation which can bump up your chances for conception. These medications work by balancing out hormone levels while raising the likelihood of successful pregnancy.

I am diagnosed with PCOD. Dr suggested me to take meprate for 5 days and wait for the next 7 days for withdrawal bleeding. Still if it doesn't happen, then take diane 35. It's my 10 day today, should I take diane 35 now? Or should I see another doctor? Please help me
Female | 17
Listening to your doctor is crucial for PCOD management. Meprate induces withdrawal bleeding, helping regulate your periods. After 7 days, if bleeding doesn't start, Diane 35 might be prescribed. On day 10, begin Diane was 35 as per the doctor's advice.

Wanting a baby is wonderful! Your wife's 9.84 LH level shows ovulation. If trying for one year without conceiving, see a fertility specialist. Infertility reasons vary - hormone problems or reproductive issues. Doctors pinpoint causes, offer treatments increasing pregnancy chances.
