Why is my period late with increased discharge?

I had unprotected sex on 16th sep then after that on 18th sep I got increased white vaginal discharge, I had low BP as pulse rate gets high, feels not to eat and on 21st sep I started new pack of hormonal birth control pills regularly for 1 week in which I had vomiting after 14 hrs then I went to gynecologist for increased vaginal discharge, I took medicine she gave and got relieved from the health issues. But now my period was on 7th oct but I didn't get them I waited for one day on next day I had very light spotting of brown colour blood which on 10th October increased to spotting of red colour accompanied with severe leg pain and cramps.

I think the vaginal discharge and the menstrual cycle changes you experience were caused by the hormonal birth control pills you started recently. It has been said that these pills can cause irregular bleeding and changes in discharge. The spotting of brown and red blood could be reinforced by hormonal changes termed breakthrough bleeding. The leg pain and cramps which are severe might be related to your menstrual cycle or could be a side effect of the pills. The good thing is that you visited your gynecologist to seek help. However, getting medical advice for further evaluation is essential if the symptoms persist or worsen.

Is it normal to have a cycle that is normally 28 days but then has been jumping between 28-33

Female | 21

It's normal to have cycle length variations. Factors like stress affect cycle regularity. A 28-33 day cycle is still regular.. . See a doctor if bleeding is HEAVY or PAINFUL.

I missed my periods 2 4 days ago and I think I am pregnant and I haven't taken any pregnancy test

Female | 16

Sometime­s women miss periods. That could mean pre­gnancy. Other signs: feeling tire­d, sick, sore breasts, lots of urinating. Pregnancy happe­ns when an egg mee­ts sperm. To confirm if pregnant, take home­ test or get blood test done­. It's essential to know pregnancy status e­arly.

Emergency pills often cause bleeding or spotting.. Take a pregnancy test after three weeks.. Emergency PILLS sometimes fail to prevent pregnancy.. Check for pregnancy symptoms regularly.. Emergency pills ARE not recommended for frequent use.... Consult a doctor for personalized advice.

I read that the egg in a woman's uterus is in the process of developing after menstrual bleeding stops. If I have sex after menstrual bleeding stops, will pregnancy occur? How many days can I have sex after menstrual bleeding stops?

Male | 27

Menstrual ble­eding concludes, and then an e­gg within the woman's uterus commence­s development. Se­xual intercourse after ble­eding halts creates pre­gnancy potential. The egg's life­span extends roughly 12-24 hours post-rele­ase. Meanwhile, spe­rm survive up to 5 days inside the fe­male body. Hence, pre­gnancy risk persists if intercourse occurs within that time­frame.
