Answered on 29th Aug '24
Periods being late is common, so you shouldn't panic straight away. It can also be stress, changes in weight, diet, or exercise habits. It could also be a sign of pregnancy if you've been sexually active. Just breathe deeply. If you are worried, you can take a home pregnancy test to calm you down. If you continue to have irregular periods, you should talk to a gynecologist.

Female | 28
I am sorry you face such difficult pains. Stomach and pelvic discomfort from endometriosis and PCOS can truly be hard. Feeling dizzy makes things even tougher. With endometriosis, uterus-like tissue grows outside the uterus. PCOS involves hormone imbalances. Treatments cover pain relief, hormone therapy, surgery sometimes. To find a gynecologist who properly manages your symptoms.

which tablet should take to get periods. if not pregnant.
Female | 27
I would not recommend taking any pill to bring on periods without first consulting with a gynecologist. Irregular periods may signal other health complications, and without proper assessment taking medication can only make things worse.

1 am 24 years old lady,who is having breast discharge when ever my breast is touch or press ,and am also having vaginal dryness
Female | 24
Hormonal shifts may be the reason for breast discharge when squeezed as well as dryness in the vagina. If a person has too much prolactin hormone, they can have nipple fluid, while low levels of estrogen might cause a lack of moisture down there. It’s advisable to see a gynecologist for further investigation and appropriate treatment if these signs worry you.

I'm having piles from 2 days and having itching in my vaginal area. Even from tomorrow I'm experiencing abdominal pain and weakness
Female | 21
Piles induce itching around your bottom area. Abdominal pain and weakness contribute to overall unease. Piles are swollen blood vessels in the anus region. Straining during bowel movements can trigger their formation. To alleviate these symptoms, consume fiber-rich foods regularly. Stay well-hydrated by drinking ample water. Soaking in warm baths may provide relief too. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, consulting a gastroenterologist becomes crucial for proper evaluation and treatment.

My period date is 13th of Every month but this month I had unprotected intercourse and I took levonorgestrel and my period is now delayed by 3 days.
Female | 20
If your period is only delayed by 3 days, it's likely due to the medication. Consider taking a pregnancy test to ease your worries. Stress can also affect your menstrual cycle. Consult a gynecologist for proper evaluation and treatment.

Want to delay my periods for four days and not getting pregnant ... What should I do?
Female | 21
If you want to delay your periods for four days and avoid getting pregnant, what about taking a drug called norethisterone that has been passed for such use? This medication will be the way to delay your period. It achieves this by controlling the production of progesterone in your body. Nevertheless, remember that this is not a contraceptive method, so you have to use other birth control methods if you are sexually active. A gynecologist would best be able to assess you and establish the correct prescription and dosage for you.

Im a 19 year old female and i want to know how to tell if I'm either having a miscarriage or a cystic pregnancy.
Female | 19
If you are concerned about a possible miscarriage or cystic pregnancy, what you should look out for is the following. If you are having sharp belly pain or heavy bleeding, then this could be a sign of a miscarriage. On the other hand, if you experience mild pain, nausea, or breast tenderness, it may be cystic pregnancy. For a definite answer, it is necessary to go to a gynecologist for proper evaluation and treatment.

Hi, I tested with pregnancy test kit on my 3rd day of missed periods and i got slightly red second line. When can i take blood test for confirmation
Female | 31
A red secondary line, even a very light one, can show that a woman is pregnant. It is best to wait at least one week after the missed period to do a blood test for confirmation. This allows your body to produce enough pregnancy hormones that the blood test can detect. If you have pregnancy symptoms like nausea, or breast tenderness, it is also good to mention that to a gynecologist.

You can take a pregnancy test as soon as you miss your period. Since it's already 11 days late, it is a good time to take the test now. If you have any concerns or need further guidance, please visit a gynecologist.

I am 23 yrs old and I have irregular periods I have sexual relation few days before and around 15day bleeding start on 1st day flow is heavy but now the flow is small have any problem
Female | 23
Irregular periods are not unusual in young women. Fifteen days after having sex bleeding could be caused by hormonal changes. Is the flow light now? This may be normal if it is. Keep track of your periods and see if they follow this same pattern. If you are worried, make a gynecologist's appointment so that you can talk it over with them in detail.

Hi Doctor My name is Raji. I am 40 years old. Last week, I did a medical checkup and found that in my left ovary, there is a hemorrhagic cyst measuring 3.9*3.1cm with lace-like internal echoes. The doctor advised me to take Regesterone and folic acid for 6 months. I am planning to conceive. So she advised me to take conserved tablets for 3 months after taking Regestrone and folic acid. I need to know progesterone and folic acid take together. After the cyst has reduced then take conserved Tablets. Can I take Regestrone and folic acid together safely? What should I expect after my cyst has reduced? When should I start taking Conceival? Is it safe to take Regestrone while trying to conceive, and how does it affect fertility? Folic Acid: How much folic acid should I take, and how does it support pregnancy? Timing: When should I start taking Conceival, and what is the best timing for my menstrual cycle or any current medications? Monitoring: What follow-up care will I need after starting to try for a baby? Please advise
Female | 41
According to your gynecologist, it’s safe to take Regestrone and folic acid together. Regestrone helps treat hemorrhagic cysts, while folic acid is essential for pregnancy. Once the cyst is resolved, you can start taking Conceival tablets as prescribed. Regestrone may temporarily reduce fertility, but it can still be used alongside conception procedures. A daily dose of 400 mcg of folic acid is typically recommended for a healthy pregnancy. Conceival treatment will begin with your menstrual cycle, or you may explore additional therapies. Your doctor will monitor your progress as you plan to conceive.
