Protected Sex, Missed Periods: Next Steps?
I have protected sex. But also missed my periods. What should I do now?
Gynecologist/Obstetrician
Answered on 2nd Aug '24
Irregular periods create worry for those who had protected intercourse. Stress, imbalanced hormones, or specific medical conditions often cause missed cycles. Weight fluctuations, medications, and thyroid problems besides pregnancy may also stop menstruation. Monitor any symptoms accompanying irregular bleeding. If periods remain absent long-term, consulting a gynecologist allows evaluation determining the root cause. They can guide through diagnosis and recommend proper treatment options.

I am feelimg swelling inside vagin
Female | 23
Infections, allergies, and injuries can cause swelling. Pain, redness, and discharge may occur too. Soothing swelling: warm baths, ice packs, loose clothes. However, if swelling persists or worsens, consult a gynecologist quickly to identify the cause and receive appropriate treatment.

I am a lump in my vaigna , i am 20 years old . The lump is in the outside of vagina where hair grows
Female | 20
If the lump is on the vulva, the outer part of the vagina, it might be a cyst. A cyst can form when skin glands get blocked. This is usually not a big deal, but still, let your doctor take a look at it to be sure. They’ll tell you what to do next.

Me and my wife trying to have a baby. Fertility pills. Ovulation. At home insemination
Female | 27
Pills might help a woman release an egg from the ovary. This is called ovulation. An egg and sperm can make a pregnancy. At-home insemination puts sperm in the vagina to meet the egg. Tracking ovulation is important. Insemination should happen at the right time. If no pregnancy happens talk to an infertility specialist for help.

Very very faint line in prega news kya mae pregnant hun
Female | 26
A very light line in a Prega News test may indicate that a woman is pregnant. This can happen when the pregnancy hormone is low in the early stages. Sometimes, it's harder to detect in the beginning. To be sure, wait a few days and take another test. If you still see a faint line, it's best to confirm with a visit to a gynecologist.

I had emergency pill yesterday and I had sex today. Should I take emergency pill again?
Female | 20
Worry not, I get your concern! But taking the emergency pill repeatedly isn't wise. These pills work optimally when taken shortly after unprotected intimacy. Remember, they don't shield against future pregnancies. If pregnancy fears linger, consider consistent birth control methods. Consult a gynecologist if any unusual symptoms arise.

I am 22 years of age experiencing period pains but no periods
Female | 22
This can happen to some people. Usually, it is nothing to worry about. The stresses, hormonal changes, or normal body changes might be the reasons for these pains. You can try light exercise to feel better. Also, you can apply a warm compress to your lower belly or take over-the-counter pain relief medicine like ibuprofen if needed.

I would like to start the conceptive pill, my period is late and I’m not pregnant, can I still get started on the pill
Female | 21
It is normal to have late periods without being pregnant; there are different causes, such as stress, disruption of your normal routine or hormonal imbalances. You should find out the reasons for your missed cycle before taking birth control pills. If you are sure that you are not pregnant and your gynecologist says so, begin taking them, but do not forget to follow every instruction given.

Vaginal bleeding of any kind might be a sign of many conditions like vaginal infection or cancer of the cervix. A gynecologic visit is necessary for an evaluation and correct diagnosis. If you have a blood-stained vaginal discharge, you need to see a gynecologist immediately.

I am a 25 year old female got backache and stomach ache a lot, even when I have sex my stomach hurts and my muscles hurt a lot
Female | 25
These symptoms can be a result of endometriosis. The situation is triggered when tissue similar to the lining of a uterus is developed outside of the uterus. In such a way, one may feel pain during the periods, sexual intercourse, and during excretion. The complete test can determine if you have it, the best approach would be to consult a gynecologist for the diagnosis and treatment.

Female | 32
The results show you may have a small growth called a fibroid in your uterus. This is not cancer. But it can cause heavy periods or pain in your lower belly. The results also show some cysts on both ovaries. This is called polycystic ovaries. With this condition, your periods may be irregular or you may have trouble getting pregnant. To understand better, you should take a urine test and visit a gynecologist. With proper care from your doctor, you can manage these issues well.

I am 38 years old lady.... I have vaginal itching.... I use candid cream.... But it is not effective.... Please recoment a good medicine or a home remedy...
Female | 38
This may be due to a yeast infection, a reaction to soap or laundry detergent, or a change in the pH balance. As the Candid cream does not work, I recommend trying an antifungal cream for example miconazole that is available over-the-counter. You should also take the necessary precautions like keeping the area dry and clean, wearing cotton underwear, and avoiding scented products. Should the symptoms continue, you may consider the possibility of a gynecologist for further evaluation.

8 feb my periods date I have Intercourse in 18 feb after 10 min take unwanted 72 immediately after taking pill 24 feb I got heavy withdrwal bleeding for 7 day now is 28 March but no periods paregncy test negative
Female | 22
Your period was delayed after you took Unwanted 72. This happens sometimes with those pills. They affect the menstrual cycle. A pregnancy test might show negative at first. Stress also impacts periods. Wait a bit more. Eat properly and relax. If you don't get your period still, visit a gynecologist.

Done HSG test, and result is : Bilateral patent tube
Female | 36
This indicates that both of your fallopian tubes are open and functioning properly. This is a positive result as it suggests that there are no blockages or obstructions in your fallopian tubes that could interfere with fertility or conception. It increases the chances of successful natural conception and may be reassuring if you are trying to conceive.

Sir mai period ke 5 day bad sex ki uske baat becheni lagne laga . Mane do bar test bhi ki dono bar -ve hi aya or period bhi miss kar diya
Female | 18
Missing out on your period after sex can be caused by different factors like stress, hormonal changes, or pregnancy. If both tests were negative, it is possible that it is not a pregnancy. Sometimes, a delayed period is caused by weight fluctuations or illness. Try to relax, eat well, and sleep enough. If your period is delayed, it is advisable to consult a gynecologist for further guidance.

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.

Hi.. I wanted to enquire I had unprotected sex about 7 to 6 days before my periods but I took p2 5 hours after unprotected sex is there possibility of being pregnant
Female | 20
Unprotected sex near a menstrual cycle decreases the chances of pregnancy. The emergency contraceptive pill (P2), taken within 5 hours, reduces the risk, but it's not foolproof. Signs like fatigue, nausea, and a missed period could indicate pregnancy. If concerned, take a pregnancy test after your expected period date for reassurance.

I have taken 2 pregnancy test on 2nd and 3rd March it came out negative.
Female | 20
The bleeding with clots might be caused by hormonal variations linked to PCOS and hypothyroidism. The lighter flow could also result from your recent meds. Regarding pregnancy concerns, negative tests, and your period suggest low chances. However, monitor any further changes and prioritize your well-being.

list of medicine to stop menstrual bleeding
Female | 25
If you experience heavy menstrual bleeding, it may be due to hormone imbalances, fibroids, or certain medications. Symptoms include quickly soaking through pads or tampons, feeling tired or weak from blood loss, or having periods longer than a week. To reduce bleeding, your doctor may recommend medications like tranexamic acid or NSAIDs, which help decrease blood loss. It's important to talk openly with your gynecologist about your symptoms, as there are several treatment options available.

I am 20 years old and i've not seen my period for three months it started this year. Pregnancy result came out negative
Female | 20
Not getting the period for three months can be a cause of concern, but don't panic just yet. Some possible reasons he stressed were the changes in weight or hormonal imbalances. Some symptoms are bloating, headaches, and mood swings. You should try to relax, maintain a healthy weight, and speak to a gynecologist for more personalized advice.
