The spotting you had can be from implantation bleeding- when a fertilized egg attaches itself to the uterus wall. It sometimes results in light bleeding which is mistaken for a period. Take a home pregnancy test just to be sure. You can purchase it from a drugstore and follow the instructions. It’s the easiest way to confirm whether you are pregnant or not. If you are still not sure, visit a gynecologist.

I had an abortion 2months ago(i was 6 weeks pregnant),im going to have a sonogram of abdomen and pelvis for another medical reason,does the sonogram show that i had an abortion or that i was pregnant in general?

Female | 27

A sonogram won't reveal if you had an abortion . It can detect pregnancy in general . Talk to your doctor if you have any concerns .

Female | 18

it could be a sign of PMS or implantation. Nevertheless, pregnancy is not proven without a pregnancy test or seeing a gynecologist.

Is any thing happen when the period colour is dark red

Female | 23

Its generally considered normal and not a cause for concern. It can occur when the blood takes longer to leave the uterus and partially oxidizes.

Period kai 11 din pehle relationship se kya pregnant ho sakta hai

Female | 20

If a period was 11 days ago, and there was unprotected sex around that time, then there is a possibility of becoming pregnant. Symptoms might include missing periods, feeling tired, and vomiting.

How many days does withdrawal bleeding last? It's been 10 days my bleeding is not stopping what should I do

Female | 25

Withdrawal bleeding typically lasts 3 to 7 days. If you have been experiencing bleeding for 10 days, it may be best to seek advice from a gynecologist. Prolonged bleeding could be influenced by several factors, including hormonal changes or other medical conditions. Symptoms to note include unusual heaviness or clotting. It’s important to stay hydrated and monitor your condition. If you feel any discomfort or have concerns, consulting with your doctor will provide you with personalized guidance and reassurance.

35 Female with lower abdominal pains below the belly button, bilateral(on both the left and right sides) unilateral in nature(where one sided pain occurs). Sharp and pinpoint to same location for both left and right sides, directly across from each other. happening since October 2021, coincided with period first occurrence on right side 2021 thought it was a cyst at first. Went away until the second occurrence on June 19th, 2022(period cycle then was June 8th - 16th), right side. Went away and returned September 25th, 2022 on left side this time(period cycle for September 2022 was the 3rd through 11th), it occurred again in January 7th 2023 on the right side(period cycle for January 2023 a skipped period) at this point I still thought it was was cyst like pain or even ovulation pain bothering me,so I went to gynecologist, they thought it could be large intestine related due to the location of the pains. I got an ultrasound that came back normal in February of 2023. The same day i had the ultrasound, I went to medexpress to get my physical for my driver's permit, and they suggested asking my previous pcp for a ct scan, to check my appendix. It was hard to get into my previous pcp as I didn't see them in 3 years so I wasn't established. I reached out to the gynecologist I saw in january of 2023, in June 2023 when I had another occurrence of the pain, to see about getting a ct scan. It was approved by insurance, but ultimately denied under physician review( by the supervising gynecologist, and my previous pcp, because my ultrasound was normal). I then established care in December of 2023, with a new pcpx who is suspicious that my pains are coming from ibs mixed with spasms. I am taking dicyclomine 10 mg 4 times a day as needed, but it's not really doing anything when the pains occur. My pcp also changed my dicyclomine to a 45 day supply as I asked in a different question. I also met with a surgeon in March of 2024 due to a large gallstone, as my pcp said they were common in people my age. The surgeon gave a complete different answer than what I have been given before, and he thought my pains could be coming from endometriosis. The surgeon performed my cholecystectomy, on May 29th, and did a general exploration during it, but found no endometriosis. My pcp still suggested getting an evaluation for endometriosis just to know we didn't miss anything, as well as getting evaluated by a gastroenterologist. As my pains have still been continuing. What could these pains be coming from? I feel like I will be tossed back and forth between gynecology and gastroenterology, and I don't want that at all. Some helpful info: My new pcp also diagnosed me with pcos as I fit the criteria for it with my irregular period cycles, despite my bloodwork and ultrasound coming back normal. I also had the cbc; comprehensive metabolic panel; celiac; thyroid; A1C; ESR; and C-Reactive protein all tested in December of 2023 when I met with my new pcp. The only two that came back as abnormal were my ESR at 34 and C-Reactive protein at 29.7

I think I have vaginal thrush (itchy and cheese like discharge in my vaginal). What medication can I use to treat it? My 15 months old son has oral thrush (white patches in his mouth that leaves injury when I try to wipe it). What medication can I use for him? I would also need to treat nipple thrush because I'm still breastfeeding him.

Female | 32

You and your son might have thrush, a fungus infection caused by Candida. Vaginal thrush could make you feel itchy and produce a discharge that looks like cheese. Typically, you’ll be advised to use antifungal creams or tablets. Treatment for oral thrush in your son can involve antifungal oral gel or drops. To avoid transmitting the infection back and forth, both of you might need treatment for nipple thrush. Make sure you take all the medicine prescribed for you to fully recover.

Toilet not coming and pain in Vagina

Female | 21

This symptom could be an indication of a vaginal prolapse or some other medical condition. Consulting a gynecologist who can diagnose and treat the condition properly is of importance. I suggest you to see a gynecologist for an examination immediately.

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.
