Is it normal to bleed 8 days after taking the plan b
Gynecologist/Obstetrician
Answered on 5th Nov '24
This is a common side effect of Plan B; nonetheless, there are some cases when it might also cause bleeding. Sometimes, the pill may alter your menstrual cycle and then you'll get the annoying bleeding. But, if you have heavy bleeding, severe pain, or feel dizzy, you must consult the doctor about this. Make it a habit to drink plenty of water and take proper amounts of rest.

I am 16 year old girl. My name is Gul Jain. I am having pain in my breast and it has spread from breast to shoulder, armpit, neck and I am having shortness of breathing and I have consulted an endocrine he gave me paracetamol, a pain relief gel and tamoxifen 10 mg table, But did not get any relief and my breast is also heavy.

• Breast pain can be associated with anything from Fibrocystic breast changes, menstruation related cyclic pain, pregnancy, breastfeeding, side effects of certain medications, infection such as mastitis to inflammatory breast cancer.
• Heaviness of breast is because of various reasons such as large breasts, breast cysts, mastitis, pain originating from chest wall or pectoral muscles but not related to breasts and in rare cases associated with Breast cancer.
Further investigation is required in your case so as to confirm the cause behind the breast pain which include:
Mammogram - Mammogram may assist you in diagnosis where in case the doctor feels a breast lump or unusual thickening or detects a focused area of pain your breast tissue, an x-ray of breast will help in evaluating the area of concern.
Breast examination - In which health care provider will examine your breasts as well as the lymph nodes in your lower neck and underarm for changes and will most likely listen to your heart and lungs and examine your chest and belly to see whether the discomfort is caused by another ailment. If your medical history, breast exam, and physical exam find nothing out of the ordinary, you may not require any extra testing.
Ultrasound - An ultrasound exam, which employs sound waves to create pictures of your breasts, is frequently performed in conjunction with a mammogram. Even if the mammography seems normal, you may require an ultrasound to check a specific location of discomfort.
Biopsy of the breast - Suspicious breast lumps, thickening regions, or unusual areas observed during imaging scans may require a biopsy before your doctor can establish a diagnosis. During a biopsy, your doctor collects a tiny sample of breast tissue from the affected region and sends it to a lab for investigation.
• Tamoxifen is usually prescribed in treatment of patients who have cancerous growth in the breast.
• Breast tenderness can be managed with application of warm or cold compresses, occasional use of pain killers, low fat and high complex carbohydrate involved diet and limiting the consumption of alcohol and caffeine.
Consult a Gynecologist for further investigations and treatment.

I am 28 years .I want to concive for 2nd time . I am trying for 2 months .
Female | 28
Trying for a sibling and not getting pregnant immediately is completely normal. Two months isn't a long time, so there is no need to worry too much yet. To increase your chances, you should track your ovulation period, have sex during that time, stay healthy, and avoid stress. Additionally, the partner should be healthy as well.

Female | 22
You are likely referring to some modifications in your vaginal area. The redness, swelling, and mucus could be an infection or irritant. Sometimes, changes in color and texture can also be due to the fluctuations of hormones. Even though you have no pain or burning, it is important to see a gynecologist to find the exact cause and get appropriate treatment.

Having unprotected sex on 27 th January after 14 days of unprotected sex i got no period. Then taking the pregnancy kit test and found negative then 14 th February taking the norethindrone pill got period on 15 th February is there any chance of pregnancy?period flow is too heavy. Possibility of pregnancy after this.
Female | 19
The pregnancy test and menstruation after taking norethindrone indicate you're likely not pregnant. Heavy bleeding occurs frequently with this pill due to hormones. Though unlikely, pregnancy remains possible if periods persist irregularly. Monitor upcoming cycles closely, as flow intensity varies case-by-case following medication.

Period one day ho raha h wo bhi kuch ghanto k liye
Female | 25
If your period lasts only a few hours, it might be due to several reasons. Hormonal imbalances, stress, significant weight loss or gain, and certain medical conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) or thyroid disorders can affect menstrual flow. Additionally, changes in contraception or underlying health issues can also lead to very short periods. Consulting a gynecologist is important to identify the exact cause and receive appropriate treatment.

Female | 24
When a woman is one month late on her period and the pregnancy test is positive, then it could be that she is pregnant. This can occur because of several reasons like hormonal changes. To boost your fertility, stick to the ovulation cycle and have regular, without protection, intercourse during the most fertile days.

Recently I had sex with my boyfriend, at that time I got small amount of blood and some uneasiness and I pee a lot recently. Now, today is my monthly day but I only got brown discharge and don't have appetite. Is there any complications with this ?
Female | 21
A small amount of blood after sex may be due to irritation, and frequent peeing could be from an infection. Brown discharge might be old blood from the uterine walls, and decreased appetite could be from hormonal changes. Drink plenty of water, rest, and see a gynecologist for further evaluation and treatment.

I am 25 years old female,been having itching and burning vagina for a long time …too fluconozole but it reduce the itching but still the burning sensation is uncomfortable it doesn’t stop.
Female | 25
These symptoms can be the outcome of various conditions, such as infections, hormonal changes, or irritants. When fluconazole may have already given some relief, chances are it may not be the one curing the cause of the burning felt. practicing proper hygiene, donning comfortable, breathable garments, and steering clear of irritants, such as scented products for better management. You may consult a gynecologist for personalized treatment plan and rightly diagnose the cause of your discomfort.

Female | 28
Experiencing discomfort or pain after sexual intercourse following a hysterectomy is common. It's important to take it slow, use lubrication, and communicate with your partner. Still if the pain is severe or persistent, seek medical attention. Consult your gynecologist or surgeon for personal guidance.

If someone is 4 weeks pregnant and the conception window shows may 8th-10Th. Is it possible that when they had sex in the 8th they got pregnant or on the 5th?
Female | 25
Indeed you can get pregnant if you had sex on the 8th. Sperm can live inside the body for a few days so if ovulation happened shortly after on the 10th then pregnancy could occur. Some symptoms like a missed period tiredness and tenderness of the breasts may start showing. If you suspect that you are pregnant take it easy a home pregnancy test to confirm.

Could I be pregnant? I had withdrawal bleeding on 25 to 27, inter course on 30th no ejaculation inside, no penetration juts contact for some time, I took two emergency contraceptives in a week if each other last month. And my period is late. No spotting, light cramps and a negative test.
Female | 18
Having missed your period, with no spotting, light cramps, and a negative pregnancy test result, you may be pregnant. However, this is not definite. Stress or illness could also cause a late period. Using emergency contraception can affect your cycle. Wait a week and take another test. If still uncertain, consult a gynecologist.

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.

Bleeding can be caused by a small vaginal area tear or an itching sensation. There could be various reasons such as bacterial infections or hormonal changes. People need to remain quiet, get hydrated, and relax. Moreover, sex should be completely avoided until it is diagnosed.

Irregular periods. No pcod No pcos AMH level is also good Had periods after 2months still only spotting
Female | 25
Stress, intensive exercise, thyroid problems, and hormonal disorders are some of the factors that can lead to irregular menstruation. Your situation is different, as you said that you didn't have PCOD, PCOS, or AMH levels issues, so it could be other hormonal fluctuations. To address this, it is preferable to lead a balanced life, deal with stress, visit a gynecologist for further explorations or treatment if necessary.

Female | 31
Bleeding between menstrual cycles may be experienced due to a number of factors such as hormonal changes, stress, or some health conditions. Menstrual-like pain could be the most common symptom of the condition. It is of utmost significance to keep track of your symptoms, duration, as well as intensity. In case there is no change in the period or you would like some clarifications for your health issues, I would recommend you consult a gynecologist.

My periods is not stoped after 9 days
Female | 15
Periods usually last around 5-7 days. However, bleeding that continues past 9 days is considered prolonged. This extended menstrual flow could signal hormonal imbalances, thyroid disorders, or uterine issues. Heavy bleeding leading to fatigue, or a history of irregular cycles, warrants medical attention. A gynecologist can diagnose the underlying cause and recommend treatments to regulate your periods.

Mam mujhea naa one month mae 2 baar periods a gae yeh first time hua hae manea apne fiance kae sath sex kiya thaa but with protection is it symptom of pregnancy but mera periods ka flow normal hae jesa mujhea hota tha phlea
Female | 21
Having periods twice in a month can be caused by multiple reasons, not only the case of pregnancy. It can happen due to hormonal fluctuations, stress, or even changes in your schedule. You stated that your period has a normal flow, so stress has a less probable chance of being a sign of pregnancy. Yet, to have a clear picture, it is always better to do a pregnancy test. If you're still anxious, you can visit a gynecologist for the next steps.

I suffer from periods issue ,,when i started weight gaining foods start gaining some weight ,,,blood amount increases in body . I start to suffer from heavy menustral flow
Female | 25
Weight gain could be the reason for your heavy periods. It can lead to hormonal changes, increasing blood volume and resulting in heavier periods. This happens because fat cells produce estrogen, which affects the menstrual cycle. To help regulate your periods, try maintaining a healthy weight by incorporating a balanced diet and regular exercise into your routine.
