Answered on 23rd May '24
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.

"Doctor, mujhe kuch pregnancy-related symptoms feel ho rahe hain, jaise breast mein lump ka nikalna aur menstrual cycle mein kuch changes. Maine aaj pregnancy test kiya, lekin result negative aaya hai. Kya ye symptoms kisi aur health issue ki wajah se ho sakte hain? Kya mujhe koi aur tests ya investigations karne ki zarurat hai?"
Female | 27
It’s good that you took a pregnancy test, although if it is negative, these symptoms might occur for some other reason along with pregnancy. Breast lumps and period delays can sometimes only be signs of hormonal changes resulting from infections and cysts. It is a good idea to go to a gynecologist who will do a physical examination and request further tests, such as an ultrasound or blood work, to find out what is happening.

My last LMP ON 06/02/24. We did intercourse on 23,25,28 of February. Is there any chance of pregnancy
Female | 33
Your previous monthly cycle commenced 06/02/24. During February, intimate relations occurred on the 23rd, 25th, and 28th days. Conception likelihood peaks near ovulation, typically 14 days before menstruation's onset. Indicative signs may manifest missed period, queasiness, weariness, tender breasts. If pregnancy suspicion arises, an at-home test can provide confirmation.

I had sex without protection. But once he didn't use protection. He is saying he didn't ejaculate inside. Will i get pregnant?
Female | 19
There is still a risk of pregnancy even if ejaculation doesn't occur inside the vagina. Pre-ejaculate fluid, also known as "pre-cum," can still contain sperm and lead to pregnancy. Get a test done to confirm about pregnancy.

When is the best time to take a pregnancy test in the morning or in the evening
Female | 28
The most suitable time for a pregnancy test is morning. This is because morning urine has higher concentration, making it simpler to detect pregnancy hormone (HCG) if expecting. Evening tests may yield less accurate results. So, for reliable outcomes, take the test after waking up.

Meghna, 21, had protected sex on August 10, took an emergency contraceptive, and had her period on August 19. On September 8, she noticed a small, watery discharge from her nipples, occurring only when pressed. There's no pain, but it's lasted three days. She seeks advice on whether this is normal.
Female | 21
The watery discharge of the nipples without pain can be due to hormonal changes. In some cases, the hormones from the emergency contraception may be responsible for this. It is important to watch those changes and see if they remain or not. If the discharge keeps on going or you see any other strange symptoms, it is better to consult a gynecologist for more assistance.

I have a miscarriage and have been passing on the blood did I need any drug to take
Female | 33
It is usual to pass blood after a miscarriage since the body expels pregnancy parts. Expect to have cramping and heavy bleeding. Ensure that you rest and take plenty of fluids. Painkillers may be necessary if you are in pain. Reach out to your gynecologist in case of severe pain or if the bleeding is too much.

I got late period for 10 days.my last period was on August 12 .had sex on August 11 and September 17 and 18 using condom.why I am getting my period late.is it due to pregnancy
Female | 24
Stress, weight fluctuations, and hormonal imbalance are some of the factors that can cause a delay in your period. As you had protected sex and your period is late only by 10 days, it is unlikely you are pregnant.

Male | 32
Many men with cystic fibrosis have fertility issues due to blocked or absent vas deferens. However, with assisted reproductive technologies like IVF, it's possible for couples to conceive. Discuss options with a fertility specialist.

i expect my period on 16 but i has not arrived yet till today 22 july
Female | 27
It is quite common for you to have your period come later than on one occasion. There are many possible reasons, including stress, hormonal changes, or the weight issue. Sometimes, a disease or a sudden change in routine also makes it come later. Try not to get too anxious. If a few more days pass, and you still don't see it, visit a gynecologist.

I'm 31 years old female. This year , I delivered my baby on 28 August via c section , after 3 days staying at nicu my baby died. Now i want to know , how early i can try to conceive for baby again? Please help me.
Female | 31
In general, it is best to have a break of 18 to 24 months after the c-section and neonatal loss before conceiving again. Your body has time to heal both physically and emotionally. You must give yourself space to get better first before thinking about another pregnancy.

I missed my period last for 3 years , please suggest some medicine
Female | 37
If you haven't had your period for 3 years, it may be a serious problem such as hormonal problems, stress, excessive exercise, or ovary abnormality. Certain medications may also cause missed periods. It is crucial to get a proper diagnosis from a gynecologist. Based on their examination report, they may propose treatments such as hormone therapy or lifestyle adjustment to facilitate the regulation of your menstrual cycle.

how do i know if i’m having early pregnancy signs
Female | 16
The first signs of pregnancy range from missed periods, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, frequent urination, tender breasts, and mood swings. You should make an appointment with an obstetrician or a gynecologist if you think that you may be pregnant.

Female | 21
It is crucial to be aware of how your body is changing. For instance, experiencing some mild stomach pain and spotting although not on your period may signal many things such as hormonal imbalance, infections, or even polyps. Make sure that you see a gynecologist for check-ups regularly.

Okay. I wanted to know if it’s possible for a specific person to throwing off my ph balance and why is that. Like why would that be ? It’s only happened with him specifically and not anyone else .. why is that ? Is there something nh wrong with him ? Because I’m okay on my own it’s just that when we have sex I get a bv or a yeast infection or just feel irritated. I went to the doctor and they gave me and him medication to take and it still happens .. everytime … why ?
Female | 24
There can be factors contributing to changes in vaginal pH balance and the occurrence of vaginal infections. Sexual activity, particularly with a new partner, can sometimes disrupt the natural balance of bacteria in the vagina, leading to infections like bacterial vaginosis (BV) or yeast infections. This can happen due to the introduction of new bacteria or an alteration in the vaginal environment.

Good morning doctor Please, I’ve been super worried, I haven’t seen my period in 3months now. I did a profile test and discovered my prolactin levels were a little higher than normal so I was placed on a cabargoline drug for a month alongside ciprofloxasin but yet I haven’t seen my period still and I had a negative pregnancy test result. I did thyroid function test and it states everything is normal. Please, what is wrong with me? ?
Female | 23
Menstrual cycle can be disrupted by the higher levels of prolactin hormone that may lead to irregular periods or even missed periods. Cabergoline is administered to regulate the prolactin hormone secretion. But if you still have not regular periods even though you started taking this medicine, see a doctor again or you can take a second opinion

I am 23 years. Am having viginal pain, discomfort and alot of yellow watery discharge a day after having sexual intercourse with my partner. What should I do?
Female | 23
You say bacterial vaginosis is a vaginal infection you are having. This can be the case after sex sometimes. The symptoms you told me, such as vaginal pain, discomfort, and yellow discharge, are the typical signs of this infection. Bacterial vaginosis is commonly treated with medicines. A gynecologist should give the prescription, so it is important to go to the doctor or clinic for a proper diagnosis and treatment.

Cramping and empty sac in your ultrasound at this stage is common. But it's important to follow up with your gynecologist to monitor the development of the pregnancy. Make sure to visit your doctor regularly and follow their advice for a healthy pregnancy.

Female | 20
A Norethisterone 10 mg tablet can be useful for those seeking to delay their period for a few days. You need to take one tablet 3 times a day starting 3 days before the due date of your period. It is fundamental to have a mild stomach upset and headache.
