My period lasts for three days...which day of my cycle should I start taking the 21 days contraceptive pills?
Gynecologist/Obstetrician
Answered on 23rd May '24
I would counsel you to start using the 21-day oral contraceptive pills on day one of your menstrual cycle. This will ensure effectiveness and avoid unwanted pregnancies. In case you are worried about anything else, seek the opinion of a gynecologist who will give more specific help.

I'm 4 days late for my periods. I had protected sex on 13th Jan and we also used the pulled out method even after wearing a condom. I'm experience no signs of pregnancy and I had 3 negative tests in past 3 days I've been experiencing very low intensity cramps for past 2 days. I drank last night and also tried many home remedies to bring my periods early like massages, exercises and yoga.What are the chances that I still might be pregnant?
Female | 19
With protected intimacy and negative tests, pregnancy risk appears minimal. Mild cramps can stem from various factors like imminent periods or hormonal shifts. Prudent to avoid alcohol if pregnancy suspected. Stay observant of symptoms; if concerned, consult a gynecologist for guidance.

I have Done CT abdominal and pelvis scan with contrast today and all the reports are normal.What is the possibile reason for the abdominal pain and suggest best doctor who has dealt with these cases in the past.
Female | 49
You've been struggling for a while now with ongoing intense pain at the spot of your uterus removal surgery. You just have been cleared after the CT scan to do it but more likely the adhesive band called an adhesive" might be the reason the pain is raised. Adhesions can cause some discomfort. Visit a gynecologist. They would check your health and propose the most efficient treatment options.

Female | 25
It's a normal thing to feel scared though your periods are late. One notable cause that causes the delay in periods could be stress or changes in your daily habits. Another thing to keep in mind is the elements like feeding, exercise, and sleep. Consult a gynecologist in case the issue persists.

I had sex during periods and my periods stops after only 2 daya is it normal or not ..??
Female | 18
When sexual activity occurs during menstruation, it can potentially disrupt the normal flow andcause the bleeding to taper off earlier than usual. This is generally considered normal and should not be a cause for significant concern. If you're concerned then please do a test to confirm.

cervical polyps recurrence is normal or strange ?
Female | 36
Cervical polyps usually come back. Sometimes, one or more of the symptoms you experience are abnormal bleeding, pain, or spotting. The cause of this is not known with certainty, but it is most likely due to the changing hormone levels in the body, or prolonged infection that has not been cured. The polyp is often removed because it is usually problem-free. The doctor should closely monitor your health to know precisely everything is normal.

I am a 24 year old female. I was on depo for 2 years. Last shot expired in April. I had unprotected sex in August, less than a week after my period. Took a morning after pill next morning. One week later i had my period again which lasted 3 days with lots of cramping. Three days after i started feeling nauseated and having an upset stomach. Could i be pregnant
Female | 24
Based on what you've told me, the chances of you being pregnant are slim. The emergency contraceptive pill is effective if taken shortly after unprotected sex. Women can experience nausea and abdominal discomfort as side effects of the pill, which do not necessarily imply that they are pregnant.

I am taking crina ncr 10 mg to plnspond periodsvfrom last 10 days but nw facing spotting issue today
Female | 35
It's usual to have some spotting if you are taking Crina NCR. Spotting is light bleeding between your periods, which may have a few reasons. It could be due to the hormonal changes caused by the medication. To spot the side effects, be sure to take your prescribed drugs regularly, drink enough water, and eat healthily. If the spotting continues or increases in intensity, inform a gynecologist.

Mam I got physical on October 9th Did beta hcg on October 23 - hcg 0.19 Repeated on November 3rd - beta hcg 1.25 Took deviry and had bleeding on 7 th day after 5 day course Started bleeding on November 5 Bleeding is not as heavy as period Any chance of pregnancy maam?
Female | 21
From the beta hcg values, it appears that you are not currently pregnant. Irregular periods are often symptoms of other medical conditions. You should consult a gynecologist in order to review and diagnose. They can recommend you proper medical advice and treatment regarding your condition.

if i got a tetanus vaccine two months back and i got a metal cut now from shaving razors should i get a vaccine, to be more precise, I got the cut on my right hand's thumb
Male | 14
You should be okay if your tetanus shot was recent. The tetanus bacteria enters through cuts like shaving nicks. Be alert for muscle stiffness or trouble swallowing. Those could signal tetanus, so see a doctor immediately. But if you don't have issues, keep the wound clean and watch for infection signs. There's no need to panic with a current tetanus vaccination.

Can ectopic pregnancy be treated without surgery
Female | 29
Yes but only if it's detected early but a close monitor is necessary. But talk to your doctor whether your overall health condition permits it or not

Okay I had unprotected sex yesterday took lydia emergency contraceptive pills today in the morning around 11am and had another unprotected sex just now 1:46pm do I need to take another contraceptive emergency pills
Female | 19
You should be good since the morning-after pill blocks an egg from ovulating for a while. Unprotected sex should be avoided in the future.

I am a 25 year old female who is currently 6 weeks pregnant. I have had 2 blighted ovums in 3 years apart. The scan has shown even this pregnancy is a blighted ovum. Is there a possibility of me having a normal pregnancy as I have had 2 blighted ovums already with 2 different partners. Please assist.
Female | 24
Blighted ovum, which is also called the synonym "anembryonic pregnancy," is a situation where a fertilized egg is implanted in the uterus, but the embryo does not develop. I understand your worries about having two blighted ovums one after the other were scary. The most important thing is to consult your doctor, who knows the potential causes and comes up with the possible solutions that allow you to have a healthy pregnancy in the future. You could have further examinations which are done to help decide if there is an underlying factor that is causing this to happen multiple times.

i am a 20yr old female, i had sex a week and a half ago and he thinks he got my pregnant. we used condoms. i had my period two weeks ago. i am experiencing cramping, nausea, dizziness, and fatigue
Female | 20
Cramps, dizziness, feeling sick and tired are signs of many things, not just being pregnant. So you are less likely to be pregnant if it was only two weeks ago when your last period started and you used condoms. These symptoms could also be brought on by stress, changes in what you eat, or any illness. Anyway ensure that you drink lots of water, eat properly and rest enough. If these symptoms persist consult a gynecologist.

Am 22 unmarried girl i fell in urine place strange condition There is a condition that I feel like urinating but it does not come. But no pain And even during urination I do not feel any pain etc. and itchness etc. And my urine place is color is red Please tell me if this is dangerous or not? and my vagina inside white color like mucous
Female | 22
You may have a urinary tract infection (UTI), which can be behind the urge to urinate more often and cause red urine. The white discharge could be a sign of a yeast infection. Medications are the treatment option for UTIs and yeast infections. It is essential to visit a gynecologist for diagnosis and correct treatment. Besides drinking plenty of water and adhering to good hygiene practices, these infections can also be prevented.

I am 19 weeks and 4 days pregnant I have experienced spotting in vagina every month on my period date can u please help
Female | 32
Spotting during pregnancy - an unsettling experience, yet somewhat common. Don't hesitate; tell your doctor. Hormones, implantation, or infection - potential causes. Relax and avoid strenuous activities; it may help. However, increased spotting or pain signals urgency - contact your gynecologist immediately for a thorough assessment.
