A strong bacterial odor in the vagina can indicate a bacterial infection or an imbalance in vaginal pH. A gynecologist should be seen in order to get a precise diagnosis and treatment.

Missing period this month please help me
Female | 21
A missing period could be due to many things such as stress, changes in weight, or hormonal imbalances. Check if you've been extra stressed or experienced weight changes lately. If so, this might be the reason. Try to calm down, have a balanced diet, and exercise. If this continues to occur, consult a gynecologist.

Can I take Norethisterone tablet to postpone my periods
Female | 23
Norethisterone tablets postpone periods, maintaining uterine lining over extended duration. Short-term usage is safe. However, potential side effects mirror menstrual symptoms: abdominal discomfort, headaches, nausea. Strictly adhere to the physician's prescribed dosage instructions to circumvent complications.

My name is Khushi, 18 year's old, I have period problem
Female | 18
Among the most frequent symptoms are irregular bleeding, heavy flow, or even missing the period at all. This can be stress, lack of balance in hormone levels, or a change in your diet. To enhance the health of your periods, consider undertaking stress-relieving activities such as yoga and meditation, having a balanced diet, and doing regular exercises. If this persists, then see a gynecologist.

I'm in 21st week of my pregnancy and I'm getting clear white discharge from nipples. If is normal. All scans are normal
Female | 29
You don't need to stress about nipple discharge during pregnancy - it's a natural thing called colostrum, this whitish fluid is your body's way to nourish the baby soon. If its bothering too much, use mild soap and water to clean the area gently. But watch for redness, swelling or discomfort - as it warrants medical attention.

I have been taking contraceptives for some time now and my last time of taking was December 15 I haven't had sex till now my menses came December n last month but was supposed to come last week but it didn't come. I checked for pregnancy n it was negative
Female | 27
Hormonal contraceptives do affect your menstrual cycle. Also if your pregnancy test is negative then the period delay can be due to stress, changes in weight, or certain medications.

Okay so basically my gf took positer-2 pill on 13 Augest while we had sex on 12 August and her period ended by 10 today is 22 September and she still didn't get her period. She did take a pregnancy test at the beginning of this month and the results were negative it was a home pregnancy test. She also had a breast infection and went to the hospital they gave her meds to lower the pain and heal the infection now it's getting better. I was just wondering if she's pregnant or not
Female | 21
From the information you provided, it can be assumed that your girlfriend probably followed the guidelines by using the pill and taking a pregnancy test. It is not uncommon that psychological tension and a shift in regular routines can be behind a late period. A breast infection could be another cause. It's good to know she is getting better. If she is feeling anxious, talking with a gynecologist might help ease her worries.

I had sex with my boyfriend on March 9 and last month feb 12 is my date and 2 days before my periods is coming faster normally. But this time it's been 7 days till today when calculating even if it's 12. I had took antibiotics and took 2 injections because I was facing diarrhoea. Is this reason for late periods or any other reason and I was going through Tension because I had lost my grandmother. What could be the reason for late period
Female | 23
Being anxious about a missed period is normal. Many factors like stress, sickness, and medicine can disrupt your cycle. The grief of losing someone close can impact it too. Diarrhea and shots might have thrown off your body's usual pattern. Stay calm; your period could resume shortly. However, if it doesn't, consulting a gynecologist is wise.

I started birth control 10 weeks ago, i had unprotected sex 9 weeks ago and i took plan b after, and i had my period for 12 days, can i still be pregnant?
Female | 15
Taking Plan B after unprotected sex can reduce the risk of pregnancy, but it is not guaranteed to prevent pregnancy entirely. If you had a period for 12 days after taking Plan B, it is less likely that you are pregnant.

Hello mam I want to ask if i can get to know is their any chance to know before 6days of my period if i am pregnant ?as i am trying for baby
Female | 32
It's too early to know before your period. Around 6 days prior, you may experience light spotting, tender breasts, or mood changes. These could indicate early pregnancy. The best way to confirm is missing your period, then taking a home test.

I am an 18 year old female and a couple months ago I broke my virginity and we didn't use a condom, the second time I had sex with this person we used a condom but after the outside of my vergina starts to itch. It would itch every now and then but it wasn't bad. The third time I did it with this person we didn't use any condom and we did it in a spontaneous spot and after that the itching got worse. I don't know what to do could you please give me some advice on how to stop this. (please keep in mind that all 3 times was with the same person. Oh and by the way what I mean by the outside is the clit area)
Female | 18
Yeast infection might be why your clitoris itches. When the pH balance of your vagina changes—usually after having unprotected sex—this can occur. To relieve the itching, try using over-the-counter antifungal creams or ask for a prescription from a doctor. To avoid getting infections, always use condoms during sex.

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.

Not conceived pregnancy and irregular periods
Female | 26
If YOU are not conceiving and have irregular periods,, it may be due to various reasons.. Stress, weight, thyroid issues,, PCOS, and more can cause these symptoms.. Consult your doctor to diagnose the problem, and don't worry;; many women face this issue.. Making lifestyle changes, taking medications,, or undergoing treatments can improve your chances of getting pregnant.. Remember to stay positive and take care of yourself during this process..
But for that diagnose the root cause is more important. for example if it is due to PCOS then doctor may prescribe you medication, stem cell therapy, balnced diet etc. For stress related issue doctor might ask you to change lifestyle, not to consuming alcohol or such substances.

I am a medical student, I intercourse with my boyfriend using protection on 15th December and me periods excepted date is 19th December but still I didn't get periods what should I do..?
Female | 21
The pregnancy protection factor has a significant role to play in reducing pregnancy chances but that potentially could give rise to menstrual changes from stress, hormonal shifts, or routine alterations. When you display symptoms of nausea or weariness, you might want to take a pregnancy test just for the sake of your peace of mind. In case it is negative and your period is late, it is very important to seek professional advice from a gynecologist. They can evaluate your circumstances and continue to support you. Just remember, the unregulated condition of your period is quite a common thing, so you are not alone in this matter.

Delay in menstruation. No sex for 15 days. I did pregnancy test with preganews.It is showing negative
Female | 41
Sometimes periods get delayed without pregnancy being the cause. Stress, weight fluctuations, hormonal imbalances - these can all make your cycle late. If you're not sexually active and the pregnancy test says negative, some other factor's likely responsible. Watch for extra symptoms, but don't worry too much. If the delay persists though, it's wise to consult a gynecologist.

My period is delayed my last period was on 15 feb before that i have taken an contraceptive pill and on 10 April i did pregnancy test which was negative still my period did not come what to do now
Female | 22
A pregnancy test you took in April can help clarify things. Various factors, including contraceptive pills, stress, weight fluctuations, and hormone imbalances, may disrupt your cycle. If the test is negative, there's no need to panic. Simply wait a while or consult a gynecologist if concerns persist.
