Could stress delay my period after emergency contraception use?

I took emergency contraception on April 13th and I got my normal period on April 26th. This month my period is late. I’m not sure whether this could be due to stress I’ve been worried about my cortisol levels and have been experiencing some associated symptoms like fatigue and nausea but I’m also worried that I could be pregnant

If your period is late, it’s okay to worry. Stress can throw off your cycle, causing it to be late or even completely miss it. Feeling tired or throwing up could also be symptoms of stress. If you took the morning-after pill and then got your period, you probably aren’t pregnant. It is better to wait a little longer and see if it comes. If your period still hasn’t shown up, take a test just to be sure.

Sometimes, periods be­come irregular because­ of hormones or medicine. To ge­t pregnant faster, track your ovulation cycle. Look for signs like­ changes in cervical fluid or use an ovulation te­st kit. Staying healthy, eating well, and e­xercising regularly can also help fe­rtility.

I had sex 18 april and after that I got my periods on 22 April andr its duration is as always 5 days and after that I don't have sex but today is 24 April and I don't get my periods is there any chance to pregnant

Female | 22

If your period is normally regular but it’s a little late this time, don’t panic – it could be due to stress, weight change or other reasons. Sometimes our bodies can be a little unpredictable. If you’re worried that you might be pregnant though – try taking a test just for peace of mind. Keep in mind that there are lots of things that can cause changes in your cycle.

I have a shorter period this days , what is the problem

Female | 27

If you are observing a shorter than usual menstrual period, it could be that the cause is stress, hormone imbalance or a certain drug. It is advisable to visit a physician who specializes in women's reproductive health in order to diagnose the problem and to receive proper treatment.

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.

What is the difference between postinor 2 bleeding and implantation bleeding?

Female | 19

Postinor 2 menstrual bleeding is a common secondary pro-ecpemption reaction associated with emergency contraceptive use, which is usually heavier that implantation bleeds. An implantation bleeding is when a fertilized egg attaches to the uterus and it usually appears as light pink or brown spotting. In case of any abnormal bleeding, one should consult a gynecologist for medical consultation.

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 got miscarriage of 8 weeks I want to know the reason

It could be due to some reasons including hormonal imbalances, infections or even abnormalities of chromosomes in the fetus. The best course of action is to visit a gynecologist or obstetrician for a comprehensive exam and the identification of the possible causes to avoid further complications in the future pregnency

So, I have been to a urogynecologist and she thinks I have an overactive bladder. I have had this sensation like I'm leaking. I feel like I leak while I'm standing, sitting, or bending really much at any time. Well, today I had to go to the bathroom and when I pulled down my pants white stuff went on the floor. But, When I urinated in the toilet it was yellow. I am wondering if the leaking feeling I have is just a discharge. I did go to the er for back pain and they said I have sciatica.

Female | 23

What you saw on the floor as a white substance may be discharge, but it is vital to eliminate other possible sources. I would recommend that you visit your urogynecologist for an accurate diagnosis and the appropriate treatment plan.
