Hi! The fact that you are using protection every time you have sex is a great thing, and it shows the level of responsibility you have. It is not always true that the reason why periods are late is that you are pregnant. Anxiety, fluctuations in weight, or sickness can be some of the reasons why your period may be late. If you notice that the period is still absent, it is wise to consult a gynecologist.

I have a greenish discharge on one nipple since December. It was previously diagnosed as hormonal imbalance and I was given hormonal pills. 3 months later I was given antibiotics but it is still here. I am not done with my antibiotics though
Female | 26
A green discharge can be caused due to infections, injuries, or more concerning issues like breast growth or cancer. Consult a gynecologist for proper diagnosis and treatment. Do not stop medications without medical advice.

Hello there, I want to ask something. Last October 09 2024 until October 14 2024, I had a menstruation that's why I decided to take pills after my menstruation. October 15 until October 20, 2024. I stopped taking pills after that one because I experienced side effects which is itching and my menstruation came again last October 28 until November 1. After that one, I decided to take another pills but with different brand. I had unprotected last November 09 until November 11 aside from the pills. In my calendar, i saw that i'm already delayed. What does this mean? I took pregnancy test 2 weeks after our last sex which is last November 26 2024 and it was negative. What does this indicates?
Female | 22
You mentioned you might have some symptoms or signs that may be indicative of some hormonal confusion. This is a very common situation among women worldwide who are using birth control pills. Therefore, please be reassured and know that this side effect is only temporary. In other cases, it might be due to changing brands as the body cannot adjust immediately or stress can also be a causative factor. However, if you still feel worried, it is recommended to Consult a gynecologist for proper treatment.

Can I take painkillers (like ibuprofen or acetaminophen?) for period cramps, if I'm on fluoxetine?
Female | 15
Generally ibuprofen and acetaminophen can be used for period cramps. However, if you're taking fluoxetine, an antidepressant, it's important to consult your doctor or pharmacist before using pain relievers to ensure there are no potential interactions or risks. They can provide personalized guidance based on your situation.

Hi - I am currently pregnant and need a clarity on my conception date. To give a bit of background- I was on combined contraceptive pills (Ovranette) until 9th of March, when I came off it after finishing a pill pack. I got my withdrawal bleeding on 12th March(which I consider as the first day of myLMP) I tested positive for pregnancy on 11th April when my periods didn’t arrive. I had two ultrasound scan so far - one on 2nd May when the gestation age was measured as 7 weeks 2 days as per ultrasound and the second one on 9th May when the gestation age was measured as 8 weeks 2 days as per ultrasound. Since I conceived the next month after coming off pill, I need some clarity on when did the conception happen. I had 2 times sexual intercourse during this time - one on 12th March (couple of hours before commencing my withdrawal bleeding) and the next one on 23rd March - would like to know which intercourse has resulted in the pregnancy
Female | 32
According to what you’ve said it’s more likely that the sexual intercourse on 23rd March caused your pregnancy. Typically, a pregnancy test becomes positive about 4 weeks after conception which matches the dates. Having taken the pill, you can easily mistake withdrawal bleeding for your normal period. Some symptoms such as positive pregnancy tests and ultrasound findings indicate that it happened after 12th March. The best thing to do now is keep seeing a gynecologist.

Upper lips of vagina break or torn , are not getting the correct forever which happened because of past masturbation , are they dangerous or not? But no symptoms .only black color of upper lips outer. unmarried
Female | 23
You might be dealing with some tearing in the labia minora of your vagina. This can happen due to the past activities of masturbation. It is important to look for any color or texture changes. Black color could mean some healing tissue. As long as there is no pain or discharge, it is probably not dangerous. Keeping the area clean and not giving it any more irritation should help the healing.

Doctor, how are you !? I went to hospital to check my pregnant test they said it’s 41 mlu and they said after two days need to go back to see if the level increase this 41 how many weeks is it be and it’s confirmed as pregnancy?
Female | 25
A pregnancy test result of 41 mIU/mL means there is a possibility of pregnancy. This level generally corresponds to a pregnancy of around 4-6 weeks. Don't forget to come back for the follow-up to check if the level goes up as it should. This increase would confirm the pregnancy. Symptoms of early pregnancy can include nausea, fatigue, and missed periods.

I have swelling just above my vginal opening , wht us it or is it serious problem? What should I do now ??
Female | 22
You may be suffering from a disorder called a Bartholin cyst. This lump can sometimes form right above your vagina when the Bartholin's gland gets blocked. The region could be sensitive, and you may feel a slight lump. Usually, Bartholin cysts are harmless and can be treated with warm compresses and soaking in the bathtub. If the swelling persists or continues to get bigger, it's advisable to see a gynecologist to find out the other treatment options. Remember to avoid squeezing or popping the cyst yourself; this may result in an infection.

I got my periods since last 15 days and heavy bleeding and clotting also
Female | 19
The abnormal case is the observation of 7 days of heavier bleeding and clotting. In medical terms, this condition is called menorrhagia and it can be caused by several factors, such as hormonal imbalances, fibroids or polyps. Proper diagnosis and treatment can only be provided by a gynecologist.

I have recently noticed small skin color bumps around my vaginal opening, there is no pain and very little itchy to no itchy at all. I wanted to know if it was serious or normal
Female | 19
Small bumps near your vagina might be Fordyce spots, a common occurrence. They're harmless and typically cause no discomfort or itching. These spots form when glands produce excess oil. To alleviate any itchiness, you could use gentle, unscented soap and wear cotton underwear. However, if you're concerned, consulting a gynecologist for reassurance is advisable.

Female | 19
There are many reasons you might miss a period—stress, weight changes, hormonal imbalances, or even certain medications. One irregular period is usually not a concern. However, if it happens again or you experience symptoms like pain or dizziness, it’s best to consult a gynecologist for advice.

Brown discharge during period which appears 2 days earlier
Female | 25
Brown discharge before menstruation commonly occurs due to the expulsion of older blood. Color variations arise as blood stays longer exiting your body, turning brown. Hormonal fluctuations, stress, or infections can cause this delay. While occasional discoloration is normal, frequent occurrences or accompanying pain warrant consulting a gynecologist to rule out underlying conditions.

My 16 yr old, not sexually active daughter has what she believes is a skin tag or polyp that has just appeared on the inner part of her labia. It doesn't itch, it's the same color of her skin but it has started bleeding which could be from wiping. We don't know but it's causing discomfort and I can't get an appointment with the gynecologist for a few weeks. Should she be worried? Does this sound right?
Female | 16
Skin tags and polyps are harmless and not a cause for immediate concern. Since it has started bleeding and is causing discomfort, get it evaluated by a gynecologist whenever possible. Meantime its imp for her to keep the area clean and dry, avoid excessive wiping, and wear loose-fitting clothing to reduce any irritation or discomfort.

Female | 21
Your period may be delayed after using emergency contraceptive pills. This could be the result of a hormonal imbalance brought on by the drugs. Your body might need more time to adjust than it has in the past. Additionally, there are several other potential explanations for this occurrence including stress or underlying health problems. Let’s wait a little while longer and see what happens. If your period doesn't come, it is advisable to consult with a gynecologist.

Female | 26
This occurs when hormones get out of whack, sometimes due to PCOD. To help regulate things, birth control pills prescribed by a doc can be useful; they help balance hormones and manage cycles. But before taking any meds, it's crucial to chat with a gynecologist first. They'll give personalized advice.

Can i take principle ferite tablet in . 4 th week pregnancy
Female | 31
The taking of any medication during pregnancy should not be done unless it is recommended by a doctor. Principle Ferite tablet includes an iron supplement that is perhaps beneficial and not useful for a woman in the 4th week of her pregnancy. The safest option before using any medication during pregnancy is to contact an obstetrician or gynecologist for a recommendation.
