Answered on 26th Feb '25
It's common for symptoms like breast tenderness to fluctuate during early pregnancy due to hormonal changes. Many women experience variations in their symptoms, and this doesn't necessarily indicate a problem. As your body adjusts, some discomfort may lessen. However, if you have any concerns, especially if accompanied by other unusual symptoms, reaching out to your gynecologist is advisable for reassurance and guidance. They can address your worries and ensure everything is progressing normally.

We had unprotected sex , my wife was on periods it was her day 3 , on 4th day she continued with her periods and also took unwanted 72 within 20 hrs , on 5th day she had white discharge and on 6th day again had bleeding?
Female | 30
Emergency contraception such as Unwanted 72 can cause bleeding diseases which might not be normal, especially when it happens twice in one month. The white discharge and the bleeding might be the result of the hormonal changes brought by the pill. This will take care of itself. .

Please answer this. I’m anxious and loosing my self. Is it absolutely certain that an ultrasound scan done at 14 weeks after intercourse would detect a pregnancy? I had an intercourse on October 24 that did not include vaginal penetration or ejaculation, but there was rubbing around the anal region. She got her periods on November 8, December 6, and January 3. A urine pregnancy test was done on December 30 using evening urine, and it showed a clear negative result. Out of curiosity, she had an ultrasound scan on January 28 at a clinic, and they said there was no pregnancy. However, I’m still unable to convince myself that nothing happened. Please confirm if, even in the case of a cryptic pregnancy, the ultrasound scan done on January 28 would have absolutely detected? Is there any chance of pregnancy in this case even now . Please give clarity and help me to ease my mind.
Female | 20
Based on the information provided, the likelihood of pregnancy from the activities described, especially since periods occurred as normal, is very low. The ultrasound performed on January 28 would typically detect any existing pregnancy, including rare cases like a cryptic pregnancy. Given the negative urine test and the clear ultrasound result, it's very unlikely that a pregnancy exists now. If anxiety persists, please consider discussing your feelings with a gynecologist who can offer reassurance and support tailored to your situation.

I have tender breast for a week what could be the problem
Female | 34
Breast tenderness might result from hormonal shifts. This frequently occurs during menstrual cycles or with certain medications. Sometimes, it indicates pregnancy or a breast infection. To reduce discomfort, wear a supportive bra. Apply warm compresses. Avoid caffeine. If tenderness persists or worsens, consult a gyneoclogist for evaluation.

Why doctors refuse hysterectomy?
Female | 46
In some cases, doctors may refuse hysterectomy due to ethical or moral objections like in sterilization surgeries. Some doctors may also be bound by institutional or legal guidelines that restrict certain surgeries based on age, medical necessity, or other factors.

2kids mom is it safe to take EC pils to avoid pregnancy
Female | 38
Emergency birth control pills block pregnancy after unprotected sex. They delay ovulation, prevent fertilization, or stop a fertilized egg from implanting. Frequent effects are feeling sick, puking, tiredness, and off menstrual cycles. EC pills aren't meant for regular use, only occasional protection emergencies. Don't depend on them for constant birth control; that's risky. Consult a gynecologist if you're unsure about using them safely.

White cloudy discahrge, has itching, white layer around vulva.and discarge taste extremely bitter
Female | 24
You may have a yeast infection. The symptoms you’ve mentioned such as white, thick discharge, itching, and a sour smell from the secretions are typical indications of this condition. A fungus causes yeast infections when it grows too much. You can relieve the discomfort by using over-the-counter antifungal creams or tablets. Additionally, ensure that the area is kept clean and dry, and wear cotton underwear. If these signs do not go away after some time, seek medical attention from a gynecologist as soon as possible.

Pregnancy kit me halki gulabi line means kya hai?
Female | 28
Halki gulabi line pregnancy test par ek initial sign ho sakti hai, jo shayad pregnancy ki taraf ishara kar rahi ho. Yeh line light hona, hormone hCG ka low level dikhata hai, jo first few weeks mein hota hai. Symptoms jaise missed period, nausea, ya breast tenderness bhi pregnancy ka indication hai. Yeh zaroori hai ki aap ek gynecologist se consult karein, jo aapki health ko assess karke accurate guidance de sakte hain. Testing ko do baar karna bhi useful hai, kyunki time ke sath hormones badhte hain.

Female | 22
You've had some unusual periods and negative pregnancy tests. Your light bleeding and menstrual changes could result from hormones or stress. An ectopic pregnancy usually involves abdominal pain and abnormal bleeding, which you haven't mentioned. Keep an eye on your periods. Consider talking to a gynecologist if you're still concerned.

Female | 20
Your symptoms indicate that you may be pregnant. Bleeding during early pregnancy happens sometimes. It is called implantation bleeding. Your other symptoms like tiredness can also mean you are pregnant. The best way to know is to take a pregnancy test. These tests look for a special hormone in your urine. You can get them at any drugstore. Do the test as the instructions say. If it is positive, you are likely pregnant. If not, the test may have been too early. Try again in a few days. No matter the result, talk to a gynecologist.

period pain since 16 but not come what to do my date is 19-20
Female | 23
It is entirely natural to have period pain, including if your period has not yet come. This period of pain represents the ups and downs our body goes through with hormones as they change. A warm bath or a warm water bag on the tummy can be used to ease the pain. If pain gets too severe or you have any further worries; contact a gynecologist.

I had sex a week back and took unwanted 72 the same day. I was feeling a little burning sensation so l applied candid v gel today and now I am spotting blood a little.
Female | 23
You may be having some irritation in your intimate area. The burning sensation and the spotting of blood could be the result of the Unwanted 72 pill and the Candid V gel you used. The spotting could be the effect of hormonal fluctuations in your body. It's best to avoid using any more products in that area and let your body heal naturally. If the symptoms do not go away or worsen, consult a gynecologist.

I had sex with my boyfriend without protection ( 2 days after my period) ! Then took norix pills instantly .Now it's 33th day. I am not getting my period.

Sometimes these pills can make your period a bit late. Stress, hormone changes, and some other drugs can do it too. If you’re worried, take a home pregnancy test or see a gynecologist for some advice.

I'm 19 female who using olanzapine and mirtazapine since 27, my period should've come in 28. I'm not pregnant, I might have hypoprolactinemia, my results gonna come in Monday. My period is delayed by 19 days right know. 2 year ago my period was off cycle without any reasons (maybe weather change, it was in May) and I used birth control pills and my cycle was turned to normal. Is there a chance that mirtazapine cause my period delay or is it because of seasonal change agaşn? (I do not have any health problems, cycst etc.)
Female | 19
Mirtazapine may disturb your cycle and cause your periods to be late. Seasonal changes can also be a factor. Stress and some drugs are also responsible for your period being unchanged. After you get the test results on Monday, you will be able to understand better. Meanwhile, try to calm down, drink enough water, and get enough sleep.

I had a positive pregnancy test but then four negative tests then the next day had my period, but I get cramps on and off when I’m not on my period.
Female | 22
It can be possible that you are harboring some sort of a chemical pregnancy, which is an early pregnancy loss shortly after implantation. Since this situation may require a detailed assessment to be performed by a gynecologist or obstetrician, check with your healthcare provider before taking any action.

I’ve had my IUD for 3 years now, I just recently started bleeding vaginally almost as if I’m on my period but haven’t had any symptoms like this since getting the IUD
Female | 23
Having heavy vaginal bleeding after using an IUD for some time is not common. Period-like bleeding could mean there's a problem, like an infection or IUD complication. It's crucial to see a gynecologist to determine the cause.
