Am I Pregnant With Protected Sex, i-Pill Use, and No Withdrawal Bleeding?
I had protected sex on February 8 and I took the i-pill. I got withdrawal bleeding after 5 days. Then I had protected sex on Feb 25 and also took the i-pill. But didn't get withdrawal bleeding till now.. Is it because I get pregnant?

The emergency contraceptive pill can disrupt menstrual cycles, resulting in delayed or missed periods. However, this does not definitively indicate pregnancy. Stress and hormonal fluctuations can also contribute to such irregularities. If concerns persist, considering a pregnancy test may provide reassurance. It's important to note that these pills serve as emergency measures and should not be relied upon excessively.

I've been bleeding for 7 days during 1 month pregnancy
Female | 27
Spotting in early pregnancy can cause worry, yet does not always signal trouble. At times, light bleeding may arise from the embryo attaching itself to the uterine lining. However, inform your gynecologist regarding any bleeding during pregnancy. They may want to assess and ensure everything progresses as expected.

I lost my virginity and now my periods are late by 5 days. I am regular 28 days cycle. What to do . I used a condom
Female | 23
Stress, changes in routine, or hormonal fluctuations can all impact your cycle's timing. Since you used protection, the chances of pregnancy are reduced, but it's still wise to take a home pregnancy test to be certain. If your periods remain irregular or if you experience additional symptoms, consulting a gynecologist is a good step to rule out any underlying issues. They can guide you further based on your specific situation.

Female | 16
Yes, it is normal to experience side effects like cramps, stomach pain, body pain, headache, and weakness after taking an emergency pill. These symptoms usually go away on their own. However, if the symptoms persist or become severe, it is best to consult a gynecologist for further evaluation and advice.

I have been on the combined pill for 8 years now. I stopped taking it about a month ago and still haven’t got a period. Should i be worried?
Female | 23
Not having your period yet is okay because your body needs time to readjust. The combined pill manages your cycle, so stopping it disrupts that routine. Your period will resume after a few weeks. Stress, weight fluctuations, or hormone imbalances may delay it. Don't worry if it takes a bit longer. However, see a gynecologist if the absence of your period lasts over a couple of months to ensure everything is fine.

I have sex 2 months ago...last month I got my period but this month it delayed..is pregnancy possible??
Female | 22
There is a possibility that you can be pregnant if you had unprotected sex two months ago, even though you got your period last month. Some of the pregnancy signs are nausea, tiredness, and breast tenderness. Stress or hormonal changes can also be the reason for a period of delay. If you want to be sure, the home pregnancy test is the solution.

Symptoms mein mood swings, fatigue, ya body mein changes shamil ho sakte hain. Is situation se handle karne ke liye, sabse pehle toh unhe relaxation techniques ya light exercise try karna chahiye. Agar ye problem jari rahe, toh gynecologist se milna zaroori hai. Woh appropriate tests karke behtar samajh payenge aur sahi treatment de sakte hain.

Female | 30
In case you have not seen your period either and you're not pregnant, it may be because of various things such as stress, extreme weight loss or gain, hormonal imbalance, thyroid disorder, and PCOS. It is suggested to see a gynecologist to get a clear diagnosis among others.

Please help me.11-12 days ago i took mifepristone. 24 hours later 800mcg misoprostol. And then 4 more doses of 400mcg misoprostol in 3 hours interval. after that, the next morning when i got up the embryonic sac with the embryo inside it came out of me without a single drop of blood. Only white fluids. I was 12 weeks pregnant. The embryo left me, sadly other pregnancy tissues and placenta did not. I did not bleed at all, not even a single drop of blood came out of me before or after the sac came out. After that, i waited and i am still waiting, no sign of blood. My placenta did not come out at all. No sign of any blood clots too. And no bleeding happened too. It has been 8 days today, since the embryo with the sac passed out of me. Still i did not bleed.I saw in google post partum hemorrhage happens due to retained placenta and people die if this is not treated. Placenta and pregnancy tissues did not come out. And did not bleed at all. Has anyone experienced this? I took more doses of misoprostol to make the placenta come out but they did not work at all. No sign of a single drop of blood still. Yesterday i touched my cervix and noticed that it is not dilated. Not even 1cm. Will exercises and more other things women do before labour for cervix dilation work for me? I am confused so much because my embryo came out, without embryo but with placenta inside, will my cervix dilation exercises work? Can anyone please answer what they think about this. I am overthinking so much. If anything similar like my condition happened with anyone, did the placenta and other pregnancy tissues come out from you after waiting? Is there anyone who waited naturally and become successful making the placenta out? It has been 8 days so i am worried. i want to wait 1 or 2 months more. I want to see if my cervix dilates though my embryo passed. I have read in google. that during menstrual period the cervix dilates very less. Only the blood can pass then. So here is another question i need to know the answer for, if i start bleeding after some days, is there any chance that my cervix will dilate very much then and the placenta will come out? Please tell me if anyone has experienced the same. Was waiting worth for anybody?
Female | 19
It's understandable to feel anxious after your experience. Retained placenta can occur, and while some women may pass it naturally over time, it's essential to monitor your symptoms closely. If you notice any new symptoms like increased pain, fever, or persistent absence of bleeding, please seek medical attention promptly. Exercises may not be effective since dilation is often linked to hormonal changes rather than manual techniques. It’s best to consult with your healthcare provider for appropriate guidance and to discuss possible next steps for your health.

I haven't had my period for the past two months and I'm getting married next month. If my period comes late by two months, will there be any problem in my married life?
Female | 22
It is quite normal to be anxious when your time is late, but it is not the only factor that brings conflicts in a married life. Menstrual cycle irregularity could be due to stress, menstruation-related hormonal changes, or health conditions of the individual. If your period is overdue, the first step is to take a pregnancy test and see a doctor for further advice.

Ma'am, I am suffering from endometriosis/chocolate cyst. I have been on Dienogest 2mg medicine for more than a month but still bleeding for 15 days straight. Neither heavy bleeding nor spotting, its something in between. Is there any permanent cure for chocolate cyst or pregnancy is the only solution? I am unmarried. Kindly enlighten me if there is any permanent solution for the same.
Female | 28
Yes with Dienogest it can take several months to be effective. If bleeding continues, speak with your doctor who may perform additional tests or adjust your medications. Doctors can recommend surgery in severe cases or when other treatments have not been effective. Talk to your gynecologist beacuse pregnancy is not a permanent solution for endometriosis or chocolate cysts.

Hi Doctor , I'm a mother of 2 kids and recently had a miscarriage, now me & my husband want to go for tubal ligation surgery as it says it's not 100% although it's a permanent birth control method of over 99% effective , is it okay after the surgery to start taking Ovral L pill ?
Female | 39
Permanent birth control can be achieved through tubal ligation surgery. The chances of pregnancy are greatly reduced with this method, but it is not 100% guaranteed. You may begin taking Ovral L after undergoing the operation. It is vital that you have an open discussion with your doctor in order to consider all available alternatives and make the most appropriate decision for yourself. Always feel free to share any worries you may have with your physician. I wish you all the best!

I have a prolonged period (20 days)
Female | 19
There can be many reasons for this. Your hormones might be off balance. Stress can cause it too. Some medical issues can make this happen as well. Pay attention if you feel tired or have bad pain. Drink lots of water. Get enough rest. Eat good food. If this keeps happening or you feel sick, see a gynecologist.

How do l stop my period now .....l am going for my honeymoon and l really don't want to disappoint my husband
Female | 28
Hormonal birth control methods, such as pills or patches, can help delay menstruation; starting a new pack immediately may be effective. Some people also find that certain medications prescribed by gynecologists can assist in this. They can provide personalized advice based on your health history and needs, ensuring both safety and efficacy.

August 12 I got my period and August 19 I make intercourse after that September 14 I got periods later October 14 was my periods days but today October 22 my period is not came I have taken pregnancy test at October 23 result is negative I don't have any symptoms and last month I had fasting at night for 3 weeks is this the reason for my period late their is chance for pregnant
Female | 21
Stress, changes in the diet, or fasting sometimes can cause the delay of your period. Since your negative pregnancy test and the absence of any symptoms make the pregnancy case less likely, it's almost impossible for you to be pregnant. Just give it some more time. Do remember that you have to take care of yourself, eat well, and try to be relaxed. It's always good to talk to a gynecologist if your period still doesn't come, or if you have any concerns.

I got yesterday evening my period spot and iam not bleeding at all..what is the Problem
Female | 20
If you notice spotting without any “real” bleeding, don’t freak out — this can happen for a bunch of different reasons. Changes in hormones might be responsible; so could stress, pregnancy, or certain medications you’re taking. You’ll want to see a gynecologist about it so they can tell you what’s what and give some recommendations based on your situation specifically.
