Yes, it's a good IDEA to take a PREGNANCY test now. A MISSED period could mean PREGNANCY, but other factors including stress, weight changes, or medications could also be the cause.. PREGNANCY tests detect the hormone human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in URINE.. It's recommended to take the test in the morning as it's when hCG levels are highest.. If the result is negative and period doesn't come within a week, consider consulting with a HEALTHCARE provider..

Actually I want to stop my periods it was first day of periods because I want to intimate with my partner can u suggest me a medicine

Female | 21

 While there are drugs that can be useful in stopping menstruation and are available in the market, it is better to refer to a gynecologist as a first step in this matter. They can check your case and let you know of the proper drug, as well as the risk connected with its usage. Hormonal contraceptives are mostly found for this purpose but the most fitting choice is different for every person.

I have a serious enquiry, I met my long distance girlfriend on the 12th November in Malaysia, I went home on the 22nd 1 Week before me flying on the 11th she had stopped taking birth control We had sex numerous times that week and on two occasions we had faulty condoms and I accidentally came inside her Both of those occasions we did it on the night and the day after she took plan B (morning after pill) The first time it happened she took the morning after pill two days before her ovulation day and the second time she took a day before I left. Do you think there is a chance she could be pregnant, if so how much % wise?

Female | 24

According to the information you have provided, there is a 1-2% chance of pregnancy when emergency contraception pills are taken correctly (e.g., plan B). Common signs of a pregnancy are a skipped period, queasiness, fatigue, and breast tenderness. Further, she can also use a pregnancy test about 3 weeks after the last time you had unprotected sex, just to make sure of that. Staying informed and taking care.

I missed my earlier period on 28 January I have fear of pregnancy.I don't want pregnant.help me

Female | 26

If you missed your period and are worried about being pregnant, the best thing to do is to take a home pregnancy test to confirm whether or not you are pregnant. These tests can give you a reliable answer within a few minutes. Even stress or some other hormonal or health issue can cause a delay in your period. Kindly check with a gynec.

You can visit a gynecologist specializing in breast imaging or a breast specialist, to have your mammogram test report reviewed. They will be able to provide you with a professional interpretation of the results and guide you on any further steps that may be required.

My girlfriend had her last period started on 5 april , we had unprotected sex on 27 april , she was late on her periods so we took a pregnancy test on 9 may and it came negative , then we waited for a week and took 2 tests on 15 may and they both came negative , what should we do next

Female | 20

If multiple pregnancy tests have come back negative, you should wait a bit longer and take another test. If you still have concerns, consult a gynecologist for further evaluation. Stress and other factors can also cause irregular periods.

Hello! I am a virgin and i have had my period for 2 years but i’ve been to scared to put a tampon in so i always use pads. But when i try to put a tampon in it kind of burns or hurts when i stick it up? Is this something to be worried about?

Female | 15

Pain during tampon insertion may indicate vaginal dryness or irritation that requires a consultation with an expert. This needs to be addressed so that you can manage your period cycle comfortably.

I got thyroid during pregnancy doctor advised to take 50 mcg.my current tsh is 1.44 should I continue 50 mcg.or should I reduce it to 25 mcg

Female | 34

CONTINUE taking 50 mcg of thyroid medication during pregnancy as TSH levels may fluctuate during pregnancy!! Lowering medication may harm the baby. Consult with your DOCTOR before making any changes.
