Answered on 5th Aug '24
Feeling worried after unprotected sex is normal. Anxiety is common in this situation. Emergency contraceptives like the 'i-pill' are most effective within 72 hours. Side effects like nausea or dizziness may occur but usually pass quickly. If you're unsure, taking the pill can help prevent pregnancy.

my period just ended last week and yesterday I started seeing a brown discharge mixed with blood on my pant what does it mean
Female | 18
The brown, discharged blood you are seeing right after your period is the blood of your last period that has not been completely discharged. There are occasions when the blood does not come out immediately. It is common and usually, it is not a very big deal. If you have had this kind of bleeding for a long time or suffer from pain or a stinky odor which is unusual, then it's better to have a consultation with a gynecologist to make sure everything is fine.

Primolut is a medication that helps delay your period. Start taking it three days before your expected period date, around the 23rd or 24th of September. It works by regulating your hormones. Follow your gynecologist's instructions and take the medication as prescribed.

Period problem Coxicam meloxicam zune esomeprazole ms. futine fluoxetine as hci usp ya Madison laya tha us ka bad sa nhi araha h
Female | 22
Hormonal imbalance or other factors can cause period problems and a gynecologist should be consulted for an accurate assessment and treatment. Coxicam, meloxicam, zune, esomeprazole, ms. futine and fluoxetine as HCI USP are out of the question for menstrual issues. I'd suggest going to an expert in gynecology for the management of period problems.

Missed period . Pain in the lower back, headache, nausea , not liking certain food. Is it pms or pregnancy?
Female | 24
PMS is the short form for premenstrual syndrome which occurs before periods begin. A pregnancy test can be taken to confirm if it’s PMS or not. Whether these are signs of something else like stress or illness is also something to think about. Anyone who suspects that they might be carrying should seek medical attention immediately so as to get proper care and guidance.

I had protected intercourse on 21st March, I got my periods on 29th March but on 20th April I had slight bleeding and till now I have not had my periods, what is the problem
Female | 22
You may have unpredictable bleeding. Reasons like hormones, stress, and pregnancy cause this. Stress delays periods, and causes spotting sometimes. A healthy lifestyle with good food and exercise helps regulate cycles. If it continues or you're worried, talk to a gynecologist.

I haven’t had a period within the past three months but pregnancy tests are negative I have hormones going all over the place and I’m always exhausted what’s wrong with me ?
Female | 20
You are likely showing a sign of amenorrhea, which is a condition that makes menstruation misses. There are various factors for this like stress, excessive exercise, or hormonal imbalances. The negative pregnancy tests indicate that you are not pregnant. Hormonal changes can cause fatigue. Have an in-depth conversation with a gynecologist to come up with the precise diagnosis and treatment of the issue.

If you missed your periods for two months and you're sure not pregnant, it could be due to stress, weight changes, PCOS, thyroid problems, or medications. You should see a gynecologist to determine the cause and appropriate treatment.

Hi what makes your vagina opens
Female | 22
The vagina is a muscular canal that can dilate and contract. It opens up during arousal for penetration by a penis, dildo, or fingers. If you have any worries about your vaginal health, visit a gynecologist.

I had unprotected sex 2 days after my periods ended. What should I do?
Female | 29
You may have gotten pregnant after unprotected sex just after your period ended. Watch for no period, feeling sick, or sore breasts. Get morning-after pills from a drugstore fast - no prescription needed. They lower pregnancy chances.

I'm a 26 year old female. I started having a terrible yeast infection in 2 months ago. Since then, I had increased smelly discharge. I recently just had too much water coming out of my vagina. What could be the problem
Female | 26
You might have bacterial vaginosis. This is a common issue that can cause a smelly discharge and also too much water to come from your vagina. The symptoms may also be itching and irritation. Bacterial vaginosis is a result of the imbalance of good and bad bacteria in your vagina. Visit a gynecologist who can give you antibiotics to clear the infection.

I did at home IUI on Friday and didn’t realise there was air in the syringe and blew some in my vagina and now I’m worried about an air embolism
Female | 25
Air embolism is the condition when air bubbles get into your blood vessels and can be quite dangerous. But, don't worry too much. In your case, that is highly unlikely. Symptoms would include chest pain, trouble breathing, and dizziness. You look okay for now, but if any symptoms appear, do not wait to get help.

Can I be having cervical cancer
Female | 35
Cervical cancer can happen, but there's no need to worry—it's treatable if caught early. Potential signs include unusual bleeding, discharge, pain during intimacy, or pelvic aches. The primary cause is often specific strains of the HPV virus. Regular gynecologist visits and Pap smears can help detect any issues early. Stay on top of your screenings to protect your health.

Female | 27
Your young boy unintentionally struck his mother near her C-section wound. Tugging on stitches often brings discomfort. For relief, she might take acetaminophen pills. Yet if pain worsens, or redness and pus appear, consult her gynecologist.

I am 3 weeks pregnant. This is my 3rd pregnancy and my previous pregnancies were sound and i had normal delivery both times. Last 3 days i am having vaginal bleeding with clots and tissue like discharge. The color of blood is dark red or red-brown type. And my midwife says today that my cervix is 1cm open. I have another blood test today to make sure if i am pregnant or not, but it’s positive again. Right now i am having some financial challenges. I am feeling helpless. Please help me with your advice.
Female | 31
Bleeding with clots and tissue-like discharge, plus your cervix being partly open, is worrying. This could mean a miscarriage is happening. It's important to visit a gynecologist to figure out what's going on.

Hello doctor. Me and my partner didn’t had sex. On July 4, gave him oral. His pre cum got onto my lips. Kissed him on his hips with his pre cum. And then he went down on me. Is it possible to get pregnant like that? Or even if he has touched his penis with a little bit of pre cum and fingered me after 1-1.5 hours of doing so? I took emergency contraceptive under 48 hours. And I drank 2 glasses of ginger water one day before taking it and also 5 hours before taking it. And early morning before taking the pill on July 5, I saw some light bleeding in my vagina and thought it was ovulation bleeding because I don’t have such light periods. And I’ve irregular periods. ( I’m not sure if it was my periods ) so there are chances that I took the unwanted 72 pill on the first day or 1-2 days before my periods were due. And after 14-15 hours of taking the pill, I started bleeding heavily (more than spotting and less than periods) . The bleeding was enough to use a pad. Can withdrawal bleeding start this early ? Just after 14-15 hours of taking the pill? Or is it my periods triggering early because I took the pill maybe near my due date or on my due date? On 6th July morning, I drank one more glass of ginger water , and in the evening my body temperature fluctuated between 99.3 at 5pm to 98.7 at 8pm and 97.6 at 11pm . My heartbeat also gets fast sometimes. Is it because of the stress? Or hormonal changes? Today is July 7th, more than 48 hours gone after taking the pill. And in the morning , I was feeling dizzy , tired and weakness. I slept again and woke up at 3pm. I am still feeling tired but that maybe because I slept so much. I’m still bleeding heavily. But it’s lesser than my normal periods. Could this be my periods only? But less heavier? Or is it withdrawal bleeding? Am I pregnancy safe? I’m really worried!
Female | 19
Interestingly, you can get pregnant despite using emergency contraception. The bleeding you experienced is more likely a response to the pill, not pregnancy. The changes in temperature and fast heartbeat might be due to hormonal changes or stress. Dizziness and fatigue are common with emergency contraceptives. Take some time to rest, and keep hydrated, and if you have any more concerns, please visit a gynecologist.
