Do I need to take any contraceptive pill if I had unprotected sex on the 2nd day of my period

Female | 21

Having sex without protection on the second day of your period usually means there is a decreased chance of becoming pregnant. During this time, the egg is less likely to be ready for fertilization. However, it is not impossible to get pregnant so if you want to be extra safe, you might want to take emergency contraception within 72 hours just in case.

Hi, My Wife is pregnant and has Vitamin D is low and Currently 6th Month is running. The Doctor recommended uprise d3 60k once a week is this okay.

Female | 27

Vitamin D deficie­ncy during pregnancy happens often. It can we­aken bones for the mothe­r and infant. Signs might be unclear, but fatigue and muscle­ aches sometimes occur. The­ advised solution, uprise d3 60k wee­kly, is beneficial since it incre­ases Vitamin D levels. This supple­ment is safe for both mom and baby. Reme­mber to follow your doctor's recommendations.

I have a query regarding HPV vaccination. My daughter was taken only one dose of HPV vaccine when she was 14 yrs . We are not aware about other doses. Now she is 20 years.. so what should I do regarding her HPV vaccination ?

Female | 20

HPV is a type of virus that can lead to cancer in some cases. The good news is your daughter can get the rest of the HPV vaccine doses now. It's best to have all doses done to get maximum protection. Go to a clinic and they will tell you how to catch up on the missed doses.

Was given cyclogest 10 weeks pregnant light bleed

Female | 27

If you find, while on Cyclogest, that there is mild bleeding and you are ten weeks into the pregnancy then you must be observant. There are times when a little bleeding might occur during the early stages of pregnancy and this could be attributed to several causes such as implantation, hormonal changes, or infections. To get further advice and assessment done, it would be best if you get in touch with your doctor immediately. Meanwhile, rest, drink water, and look after yourself.
