I am 23 years old and my LMP is 24 January Should I wait for 3-4 days for normal delivery?
Female | 23
Most babies arrive around their due date, but every pregnancy is unique. If contractions start or your water breaks, it's delivery time. Always keep your doctor updated on any changes that you wish to make.

My wife had her period start on August 4th and we had sex using the pull-out method on August 8th, during her period. She has a 35-day menstrual cycle. She is not experiencing any pregnancy symptoms. We had sex again on September 3rd, also using the pull-out method. Can you please assess the likelihood of pregnancy? Starting tomorrow, she is experiencing white discharge, uterine pain, mood swings, and fluctuating feelings of cold and hot.
Female | 19
The odds of conception are slim because of the period you had sex, which is a less fertile time. The symptoms she is showing now could be a result of hormonal changes, which is especially true if her period is soon arriving. White discharge is a usual dark and mood swings and temperature changes are possible with hormone fluctuations. See that she drinks enough water, sleeps enough, and applies a heating pad if her uterine pain bothers her.

I'm 25 year old female and my periods are 2 days late..is it possible that I'm pregnant
Female | 25
It's quite normal for periods to be late, and it's not always a sign of pregnancy. However, it should be said that being stressed, overweight, or poor in hormones can lead to period issues in all women. You should expect discomforting symptoms like throwing up or swollen breasts. To be certain of your pregnancy you can get a home test. In case of anxiety or indecision, turn to a gynecologist for advice.

I am 7 weeks pregnant. I woke up due to intense cramping all over my stomach, mainly upper. I could still move and talk normally. Now they have gone down but I still feel it like my stomach is tight and when I press, it hurts more. Could you please give me some insight?
Female | 27
You're experiencing pain around the round ligaments, which is common during pregnancy. This happens as your body adapts to support your growing baby. When the ligaments stretch, they can cause cramping and tightness in your stomach. To relieve the pain, try lying on your side, taking a warm bath, or doing gentle stretches. Make sure to stay hydrated, and if the pain doesn't improve or gets worse, consult a gynecologist.

Missing a period and experiencing period-like pain even though a period hasn't occurred yet can be a common issue. This could be due to various reasons. Stress, changes in weight, hormone imbalances, or even certain medical conditions can cause this. Make sure to keep an eye on your menstrual cycle, make sure that you're drinking enough water, eat healthily, and handle stress. It would be best to discuss with a gynecologist for more specific instruction.

I am 20 yrs old and I'm on my periods and having vaginal infection causing itching soreness nd irritation with pimples in vagina
Female | 20
It's common to experience discomfort during menstruation, and vaginal infections can cause symptoms like itching, soreness, and irritation. This could be due to factors such as hormonal changes, irritants, or an imbalance of normal bacteria. To alleviate these symptoms, maintain good hygiene, wear breathable cotton underwear, and avoid scented products. Over-the-counter antifungal or antibacterial creams may provide relief. However, it's best to see a gynecologist for an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan, as they can offer tailored advice and ensure appropriate care.

I missed my period and i took 6 preganacy test all are negative
Female | 19
If your test of 6 pregnancy showed negative results even after missing your period, you need to book an appointment with your gynecologist. A variety of factors lead to late periods such as hormonal irregularities, stress, and health problems.

I have sex on the last day of my period dat is on sixth of this month isn’t possible that am pregnant
Female | 29
On the last day of your period, sex does not guarantee the absence of pregnancy. Sperms are viable to survive for 5 days in the female reproductive tract. Therefore, you better use contraception if you do not wish to conceive. Please refer to a gynecologist, to discuss with him/her, the best birth control option for you.

My wife periods are late for 6 days
Female | 20
I recommend that your wife goes to a gynecological specialist for assessment of her reason why the menstrual cycle is delayed. Late periods may be caused because of pregnancy, hormonal imbalances related to stress or by some other medical complications. The diagnosis will allow a gynecologist to offer the necessary guidance and treatment.

I am 23 years old... mother of one.... I keep having backache.... and last month period colour was almost purple in colour ... and this month right after my period ended I'm having spotting again.... also I have lower abdominal pain.... I get dizzy sometimes after meal ..... my vagina feel like it's tearing ever since childbirth what shall I do.....
Female | 23
These might be symptoms of different problems. Hormonal imbalance and infection could be suggested by purple periods and spots. Lower stomach pain can be caused by various things such as infection or endometriosis. If you feel dizzy after eating any food, it may mean that your blood sugar is low. Any tearing sensation in the vagina might have been caused by the impact of childbirth on your muscles. Make sure to see a doctor who will examine them internally and treat them accordingly.

Hello, my mother stopped her periods in her age of 40s, I m 35 years old. It can happen to me also?
Female | 35
While early menopause can occur, it’s relatively uncommon before the mid-40s. Factors such as genetics, lifestyle, and health conditions can influence this process. Symptoms may include irregular cycles, hot flashes, or mood changes. If you notice any unusual signs, such as significant changes in your menstrual pattern, it’s wise to seek advice from a gynecologist. They can perform evaluations to understand your unique situation better and provide guidance on managing any symptoms or health impacts.

It seems that you may be suffering from vaginal yeast infection or bacterial vaginosis. These symptoms might include itching, tingling, or abnormal discharge. Talk to your gynecologist for proper diagnosis and treatment

I am 23 year old female and a pregnant and today when I was at work water discharge started coming out of my vagina and abdominal pain but not on labor
Female | 23
You may be having some experiences that are related to your pregnancy. Fluid discharge can be the result of normal hormonal changes, but it could be a hint towards early membrane rupture or other problems. Lower belly pain often originates from the ligaments being overstretched, or it may be a sign of some minor contractions. However, it is significant to consult a gynecologist for further treatment and advices.

Female | 26
Tiny bumps on your labia minora can occur due to various reasons. Ingrown hairs from shaving or friction are common culprits. These bumps resemble small pimples, often itchy and painful. Maintaining proper hygiene and wearing loose-fitting clothing may help alleviate the issue. However, if the bumps persist, see a gynecologist.

I had a sex 3 times already but 4th time I got heavy pain n got stretched n got bleeding in orange colour burning like fire n on 1st sex time i got bleed in orange only but only few drops so wt it cause !!!? Y blood in orange color ??
Female | 25
It arrogates that the trauma, tension, and bleeding you went through while having sex could be the result of an injury or break in the layer of the vagina. The orange color of the blood may have been different because it combined with the cervical mucus or with vaginal discharge. You should be careful to observe rest and avoid sex as long as the pain and bleeding continue. To avoid symptoms getting worse, immediately consult a gynecologist if symptoms persist.

I just had blighted ovum miscarriage of 7wks 2days. Pls do i need a d and c
Female | 27
A blighted ovum is a type of miscarriage. It means an egg got fertilized but didn't develop correctly. You might have vaginal bleeding and cramps. Sometimes, a doctor will need to do a procedure called D&C. This removes any remaining tissue from your uterus. Make sure to follow up with your gynecologist. They can explain the best next steps for you.

Can i take principle ferite tablet in . 4 th week pregnancy
Female | 31
The taking of any medication during pregnancy should not be done unless it is recommended by a doctor. Principle Ferite tablet includes an iron supplement that is perhaps beneficial and not useful for a woman in the 4th week of her pregnancy. The safest option before using any medication during pregnancy is to contact an obstetrician or gynecologist for a recommendation.
