Applying steroid cre­am to your face could potentially interfe­re with your menstrual cycle's re­gularity. Steroids possess the capacity to disrupt hormonal balance­. For now, discontinue­ the cream's usage te­mporarily to observe if your cycle re­sumes normally. However, if your pe­riod fails to return, seek help from a gynecologist.

Had sex on 11 day after period, I pill taken after 23 hours, 11 days to go their is no periods

It’s fine if your period is late after taking Plan B because it messes with your cycle. Some symptoms like spotting, feeling sick, or changes in the timing of your menstrual cycle are pretty normal too. Remember that stress may also cause a delay in your period so try not to worry too much about it. Everything should return to normal soon enough.  If not though, then maybe think about getting a pregnancy test.

I didn't got my period and I used Diane 35 for 6months but it is the 1st time to miss my period I'm worried about it

Not having your monthly period can be one of the side effects from Diane 35. But, in that case, we would rule out pregnancy as the reason. It is essential to talk with gynecologist and ask them about your condition's further guidance.

My daughter had unprotected sex yesterday at noon and took an Unwanted 72 pill today at noon and just after taking the pill in her boyfriend's house, they had unprotected sex again. What are her chances of getting pregnant and how can she avoid pregnancy now? Please note that her periods are irregular and very delayed i.e. in a cycle of 3-4 months and we visited a doctor for that. Her last period was in mid December.

The pill reduces the chances of pregnancy, but it is not 100% effective. SSo there is still a risk of pregnancy. Its difficult to determine the timing of ovulation and fertility. please condult your doctor for evaluation.

Every month 11th I get my menstrual period, this month 10th had unprotected sex, but I didn't get menstrual period on 11th , I took emergency Contraceptive pill on 12th afternoon, today is 16th but I didn't get menstrual period, is there any chances of pregnancy ? I don't want to get pregnant.

Female | 20

Commonly, a contraceptive called plan B can lead to some irregularity with your monthly cycle. A delayed period can be your pill or stress because you are scared of getting pregnant. You might face side effects such as bloating and breast tenderness. To be sure if you are pregnant, perform a pregnancy test 7 days after your missed period.
