Late Period, Abdominal Pains: How to Avoid Pregnancy

Patient's Query

My period was supposed to come today but it's not here yet and I have a 28 day cycle. I have been having pains in my waist similar to PMS, as well as abdominal pains for three days now. I had unprotected sex a few times over the past two weeks. What do I do to avoid being pregnant

Gynaecology

Answered by Dr. Swapna Chekuri

Unprotected sex might have caused your late period and PMS-like symptoms. These are potential pregnancy signs. The egg may have met sperm, resulting in pregnancy after unprotected intimacy. To avoid pregnancy, you can take emergency contraception like the morning-after pill within seventy-two hours of unprotected sexual activity.

I am a 22 year old woman. Over the past 4 years I had 2 endometriosis surgeries. My last surgery was last year April. End of May I started bleeding again with lots of pain. I have an IUD in place, so it is not supposed to happen. Few days after I fell extremely ill, having a fever, nauseous, etc. It is two weeks past, I am still bleeding, still feeling very nauseous, having lots of pain. I am not sexually active.

Female | 22

You’re dealing with some troubling symptoms such as continual bleeding, pain, fever, and nausea even with an IUD. These can be either a possible infection or an issue with the IUD itself. You should go see a gynecologist right away so they can check it out and give you the necessary treatment.

Hello Doctor, I need to confirm, my wife did HCG test the result is showing 2622.43 mlU/ml, please help to explain it's means positive

The result you provided, 2622.43 mlU/ml, indicates a positive pregnancy test. HCG levels vary among individuals and throughout the stages of pregnancy, but a level of 2622.43 mlU/ml is consistent with a positive pregnancy result, indicating that your wife is likely pregnant.

i took Norethisterone to push back my peroid but it still hasn’t come back shouls I be worried I’m pregnant ?

Female | 15

Various factors, including psychological strain or hormonal imbalances, might be responsible. Pregnancy represents a potential cause, but it is not the sole possibility. Be aware of any accompanying symptoms like nausea or breast sensitivity. If concerns persist, using a pregnancy test can provide clarity. In situations of uncertainty, consulting a gynecologist is the best course of action.

Nipple discharge may also imply breast cancer or non-cancerous conditions. You are required to visit a doctor if the discharge from your nipple is bloody, or spontaneous. This should be done by a breast specialist or gynecologist who can give the proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

I’ve not had a period since January took a blood test that came back negative last month yesterday I had a one time light pink discharge

Female | 26

You haven't had a period since January, and your blood test is negative. This can be puzzling. Yesterday's light pink discharge could happen due to hormonal shifts, stress, or even pregnancy. It's wise to consult a gynecologist. Make an appointment to discuss these symptoms. They'll guide you properly.

Is it possible to conceive after unprotected sex on periods followed by plan B pill.

Female | 33

It is possible to ovulate after having unprotected sex during your period, even if you've taken the Plan B pill, as it’s not always 100% effective. Pregnancy symptoms may include a missed period, fatigue, and nausea. If you suspect you might be pregnant, it's best to take a pregnancy test and consult a gynecologist for further advice.

I had done an unprotected sex on 20th march and my period date is 24th march but I did not get my period and today is 30th March. Plz help me what to do?

Female | 19

Worrying when periods are late after unprotected sex is normal. Stress can disrupt menstrual cycles, yes. But pregnancy or hormonal shifts might also cause delays. Anxiousness or tension indicate stress. Taking an at-home pregnancy test provides certainty. Managing stress is key too - exercise, confiding in friends. Periods will return when the root issue resolves.

I got pregnant by mistake, then I took unwanted pills and within 1/2 day my bleeding started. I had taken only 3 pills in the abortion kit. My bleeding continued for 15 days, then after that the bleeding stopped. Then after 12/13 days the bleeding started again, so can this be a period ... because only blood was coming out of the vagina

Female | 21

It’s common to experience irregular bleeding after taking medications from an abortion kit. Continuous bleeding for 15 days followed by a gap, and then resuming bleeding, could indicate hormonal changes or other factors related to the medication. This may be your menstrual cycle returning, but it's essential to monitor any discomfort or significant changes. I strongly encourage you to consult a gynecologist to discuss your symptoms and explore your health status further. They can provide personalized guidance and ensure everything is progressing safely.

Hello, I am Rasima and I am 19 years old. Today my periods came in the morning and I started having a lot of pain. I am feeling dizzy and vomit also came everything was fine till afternoon after that my periods flow gets slow and the colour of my blood is chocolaty brown type and from night till now my periods stop no blood in one i want to know about this plzz reply. Me as soon as possible

Female | 19

You might have dysmenorrhea, also known as painful periods. The pain could be causing the dizziness and vomiting. The blood might have turned brown because it is older and took longer to come out. Periods can sometimes stop suddenly, which is okay. Rest, drink water, and use a hot water bottle on your tummy. If it doesn’t get better soon, talk to a gynecologist.

I had sex a week back and took unwanted 72 the same day. I was feeling a little burning sensation so l applied candid v gel today and now I am spotting blood a little.

Female | 23

You may be having some irritation in your intimate area. The burning sensation and the spotting of blood could be the result of the Unwanted 72 pill and the Candid V gel you used. The spotting could be the effect of hormonal fluctuations in your body. It's best to avoid using any more products in that area and let your body heal naturally. If the symptoms do not go away or worsen, consult a gynecologist.

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.

i tried to make an appointment with my gyno, but they were all full. Just to clarify english is not my first language so i can't describe everything the best. I'm over here dying of pain, I'm drinking pain meds just so i can function somewhat normal. I'm an 18 year old girl that's been sexually active for around 2 years or so with one partner and this is the first time that this happened. I can say that the pain started a few weeks ago while having intercourse and i felt a pain in my vagina during certain poses( missionary) but as soon as we switched that stopped so i ignored it. We just avoided it and everything was fine, until it started to burn while peeing. After that we had one intercourse during which everything was okay but the intense pain started later and it calmed down in a few mins. Day after that i woke up in the middle of a night because of the pain. Everything felt sore, was burning and itching. Especially around the opening (don't know what else to call it) and i couldn't touch that part, there even was a bump on it . Curiosity got the best of me so i looked with a mirror and i kinda stretched my vagina so i can se inside of it and everything inside was covered in white small chunks (size of rice) and they were really sticky. Also, it smelled funky, but not like fish and there were practically no discharge. Since it was the weekend i couldn't do anything because no one is working. It hurts to stand,sit, walk, litterally anything. I was barely moving. That lasted until yesterday, when i woke up i went to pee and i found a big piece of something on my underwear and it was yellowish green colour. I touched it and the only thing that came to my mind that it was like a piece of toilet paper or something like that . After that the pain reduced, it hurts sometimes and while peeing. I looked with the mirror again and there's no more white chunks and nothing hurts when i touch, also the bump is gone. Is it possible that somehow a piece of paper got inside of me while having intercourse, that he pushed it in with his penis? That it got stuck and came out by itself? If not, please tell me what to do, or how to ease the pain. Btw, gyno isn't working till monday????

Female | 18

Based on what you said, it sounds like you may have experienced a vaginal infection. Pain, burning, itching, unusual discharge, and discomfort during sex are some typical symptoms. These infections can be caused by things such as bacteria or yeast. To help with the pain, you could sit in a warm bath or use a cold compress. It's important to go to a gynecologist as soon as possible.

PERIODS usually come every 21- 35 days.. Stress affects it. PAINFUL periods are common. Heavy bleeding may be abnormal.. Irregular periods are NORMAL during puberty . HORMONAL BIRTH CONTROL helps regulate periods . Consult a doctor if concerned.

It's Unlikely THAT you're pregnant if you got your period.. Bloating and constipation are common PMS symptoms.. Stress Can also cause similar symptoms.. However, if you miss your next period, take another test OR consult your doctor.. Always use CONTRACEPTION to prevent unwanted pregnancy..

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.

My girlfriend had her regular period on March 2nd, but she started bleeding again on March 20th. It's now the 7th day, and she is still bleeding lightly. The blood is brownish and doesn't smell like a normal period. We had a fight before this happened, and we also had unprotected sex but no ejaculation. Could this be stress-related, hormonal imbalance, or something else? Should we be worried?

Female | 28

It’s understandable to be concerned about changes in bleeding patterns. Experiencing brownish discharge, especially after a recent period and potential stress, can be related to hormonal shifts, which may occur due to various factors including emotional stress or lifestyle changes. While this could be normal, it’s wise to monitor her symptoms. If the bleeding persists, becomes heavier, or is accompanied by pain, consulting a gynecologist would be beneficial.
