Is 16-Day HCG Test Accurate After Levonorgestrel Use?
Is blood HCG test 16 days after intercourse consider to be reliably accurate to conclude the results if it took levenogestrel after the sex?
Gynecologist
Answered on 11th Jan '25
A blood HCG test performed 16 days after intercourse can provide reliable results, particularly when assessing for pregnancy. However, taking levonorgestrel, often used as emergency contraception, can affect hormonal levels and potentially delay ovulation. Symptoms such as missed periods or breast tenderness are common indicators of pregnancy, but they can also result from hormonal changes. If you're uncertain about your test results, I recommend consulting a gynecologist for an accurate evaluation and support.

Female | 20
I suggest you to see your gynecologist for a proper diagnosis. Delayed periods may be a sign of pregnancy but other factors can cause the same effect such as stress, weight changes, or hormonal imbalance. Getting a medical opinion is crucial

I'm having irregular periods but I've cured it by taking medication from last 4months I've got my period regular last time it came 7 days before the time and this month it's been late for 14 days and I'm having pregnancy symptoms so I decided to test tomorrow but today I'm not having any symptoms
Female | 21
Irregular periods can have various causes, and taking medication to regulate them is a positive step. However, even with regular periods, occasional variations in timing can still occur. It mostly happens in maximum no. of women. if you feel you're experiencing pregnancy symptoms it may be a good idea to take a pregnancy test to rule out the possibility of pregnancy.

Female | 24
Some discharge is common, but mixing with blood could signal an issue. Morning's mild bleeding and tonight's heavier flow, though painless, demand attention. Infections, hormone shifts, or cervical problems — the causes vary. Visiting a gynecologist is wise; they'll pinpoint the reason and provide proper care.

Hi dr I have one doubt… I am in first month of pregnancy and doctor advised me to take corpreg tablet instead of folic acid… So my doubt is which one is better… can I take both tablets together?
Female | 27
It is commendable that you are already looking for nice ways to care for yourself and your pregnancy. Folic acid is essential for a healthy pregnancy. It helps in reducing the incidence of neural tube defects in the baby. Corpreg is a supplement that contains folic acid and other vitamins and minerals. You can take the two pills in combination because taking corregar improves the baby's birth by adding extra necessary nutrients for the baby's development.

Iam having light periods.in 2022 last i have lost weight due to food poison after that only iam facing this problem
Female | 23
Sometimes, light periods indicate something's off. Rapid weight loss from food poisoning disrupts your body's balance. It may alter hormones, making periods lighter. Eating nutrient-rich, balanced meals helps restore equilibrium, regulating periods. Visit a gynecologist if the problem persists.

Trichomoniasis is an infection that can exist without notice. A tiny parasite causes it. It spreads through sexual contact.

Backache, skin related, obesity, and PCOS
Female | 17
Back pain, skin problems, obesity, and PCOS can be a huge challenge. Back pain is possible when your back hurts or gets stiff. Skin issues might result in rashes as well as itching. Obesity is a condition that arises when you have excess body fat. PCOS can lead to irregular menstrual cycles and become a barrier to conception. It is always best to consult a gynecologist who can help you take care of these things

Why I am suffering from heavy flow during periods, although I have low hemoglobin?
Female | 33
Heavy period flow can arise when hemoglobin levels dip. Low hemoglobin contributes to heavier bleeding. Fatigue, paleness, and breathlessness may accompany this condition. Underlying causes like anemia or hormonal imbalances trigger these symptoms. Consuming iron-rich foods and supplements alleviates low hemoglobin issues. However, consulting a gynecologist ensures proper diagnosis and treatment.

I had sperm on my hand then I washed my hand using soap and water. Then me and my partner went out for about 2 hours we eat foods touch several things. Then I returned to home, washed my hand about thrice with handwash and water thoroughly. Then after drying my hands I fingered my self. Is there any chances of pregnancy by this activity? There was no sperm in my hand at that time and I washed my hands about 5 times. please reply doctor.
Female | 22
I would say that the possibility of pregnancy at these times is very rare. You will reduce the likely remainder of sperm by just washing your hands properly with soap at least a couple of times. It is always advised to visit your gynecologist if you experience any worries or confusion related to the pregnancy.

Bleeding related to cesarean delivery is a common occurrence and can last up to 6 weeks. On the other hand, if the bleeding persists for 8 weeks after childbirth, you need to see your gynecologist. They will look you over, and then assess you for problems that require treatment.

My tubectomy was done three years ago. Do I still have to use contraceptive methods?
Female | 45
A tubectomy is a permanent type of birth control that obstructs the fallopian tubes to hinder the pregnancy process. Despite its high rating, it is not completely foolproof; there is still a small risk of getting pregnant. In case of any signs like missed periods or abnormal bleeding, be advised to consult a gynecologist so that a possible issue may be excluded.
