Taking the "I pill" pill under those circumstances is actually effective but it can cause disturbances in your menstrual cycle temporarily or even delays. Stress, hormonal imbalances, and underlying health problems can be a reason for your cycle to be late, too. Getting a cycle that is a bit unusual for some time after such a situation is quite common. A little more time; if your period doesn't show up, to make sure you don't have a pregnancy, take a pregnancy test. Should the matter wax urgent, or the signs begin to manifest, it would be necessary to contact a gynecologist for a formal consultation.

I am 24 year old female. I have been facing vaginal itching, sometimes smelly discharge and itchy inner thighs since almost one year. It comes and goes.

Female | 24

Maybe you have a yeast infection. Symptoms such as itching, smelly discharge, and discomfort in the vaginal area are the common ones that affect women. Besides the vaginal region and inside the thighs, fungal infections can also affect the mouth, throat, and skin. The clothes can be attributed to such infections as well. Firstly, there are the unwanted side effects of some medications. Prevention of yeast infections should be made by cotton underwear while avoiding scented items to the extent that OTC antifungal creams should be used.

I had make out with my boyfriend no penetration or ejaculation just rubbing . what is the chances of me getting pregnant. I know it is a lame question as There is no chance but for The sake of anxiety and concern I had to ask this. And if there is any chance what Should I do for not getting pregnant ? Kindly revert back as Im very anxious .

Extreme period pain can be caused by disorders like PCOD, which may also explain the body hair you mentioned. To manage the pain, try warm baths, gentle exercise, and over-the-counter pain relievers. Regarding pregnancy, the chances of penetration or ejaculation are extremely low.

Hello Ma'am, i would appreciate if you could give me you few minutes... My mom is in her pre-menopausal age she's 47 years old back in 2022 she had started bleeding heavily for list almost a month continuously we had done test so at that time here uterus lining was 10/11mm which is supposed to be normal She was taking pause-MF tablets and aftr that she had normal regular periods for 2 years Now since april 2024, she's having very heavy flow of blood she had her periods from 10-19 april then from 2-20 may then after this she again started her period from 28th may till 05 june. she's had very heavy flow during these 3 recent cycles We've done an ultrasound so in the ultrasound we got to know that the Endometrial has thickened to 22mm she's been suggested biopsy, so is it necessary to get the biospy done or can it be left like that keeping her age in mind? Your valuable suggestion will be very meaningful. Thank you.

Female | 47

These kinds of changes could be caused by hormonal imbalances or conditions such as endometrial hyperplasia. 22mm is concerning and needs further evaluation through biopsy to rule out anything serious like cancer. Because of her age as well as her overall health status, these tests must be done.
