Do I need contraception after tubectomy, even after 3 years?
My tubectomy was done three years ago. Do I still have to use contraceptive methods?
Gynecologist/Obstetrician
Answered on 10th Dec '24
A tubectomy is a permanent type of birth control that obstructs the fallopian tubes to hinder the pregnancy process. Despite its high rating, it is not completely foolproof; there is still a small risk of getting pregnant. In case of any signs like missed periods or abnormal bleeding, be advised to consult a gynecologist so that a possible issue may be excluded.

I missed my periods. Usually every month I got my periods on 19 but this month it's already 31 and I didn't got my periods.
Female | 23
Your period being late can be concerning, but try not to worry too much. Stress, weight fluctuations, or illness sometimes disrupt your cycle. If you've had sex, pregnancy is possible. Signs like nausea, sore breasts, and exhaustion may indicate pregnancy. To confirm, take a pregnancy test. If negative but still no period, consult a gynecologist to identify any potential problems.

My period hasn’t come on as yet and my flo app told me tomorrow will indicate that I’m late for my period. But I took a pregnancy test today and it came back negative. Did I test to early or that’s an accurate reading ?
Female | 25
IT'S POSSIBLE TO GET A FALSE NEGATIVE Wait a few days.. STRESS and weight changes can cause late periods.. Remember to TAKE YOUR TIME and READ THE INSTRUCTIONS carefully when taking a pregnancy test. It's important to BE PATIENT and WAIT FOR THE CORRECT TIMEFRAME for accurate results.

Growing belly but negative pregnancy test
Female | 23
You notice your belly growing, but pregnancy tests keep showing negative. A few things could be causing this. Bloating is one reason - certain foods or conditions like IBS can lead to bloating. Another possibility is weight gain. To understand the real cause, it's wise to speak with a gynecologist.

Missed period and late for 13 days. No other symptoms than spotting a week before
Female | 22
Missed periods could indicate various possibilities, including pregnancy. Spotting a week before your expected period could be an early sign of pregnancy, but it's also important to consider other factors that might be causing the delay. Take a pregnancy test for confirmation

Missing periods and tummy troubles may be due to hormonal shifts or digestive issues like gas or indigestion. Eat light foods, stay hydrated, and avoid spicy meals. If symptoms continue, it's best to see a gynecologist.

I had bleeding after 6 days of taking unwanted 72 but I got my last period on 26 January I do sexual intercourse on 2 February and then taking unwanted 72 on 3 February but today on 10 February I had much bleeding. I am very worried. Is it harmful? What can I do? Please help
Female | 20
Bleeding after taking emergency pills like Unwanted 72 is normal. Hormonal changes from the pill cause this bleeding. It may be heavier than your period. The pill can temporarily affect your cycle. But don't worry, this bleeding is usually harmless and will stop on its own. Use protection next time to avoid needing emergency pills. If bleeding lasts over a few days or you have severe pain, reach out to a gynecologist.

I just stopped my birth control pills and got my period. Its my 3rd day and my period blood is still very dark brown, the flow is light and i feel nausea and stomach pain. I cant be pregnant right?
Female | 18
One of the effects that can occur from ceasing to use birth control pills is a change in your menstrual cycle. Dark color of blood flow occurring during periods may be associated with old non-excreted blood. Stomach pain and nausea may not be connected to the menstrual cycle. Such symptoms should be referred to the gynecologist for evaluation and management.

Burning sensation while urinating and cloudy urine after anal sex
Male | 17
If you experience a burning sensation while urinating and see cloudy urine after anal sex, it may be indicative of an infection. The bacteria might have been transferred to the urethra through the anus during the process. The most advantageous approach is to drink gallons of water and visit a doctor for a thorough checkup and proper treatment.

Female | 21
If you have taken an emergency contraceptive pill (i-pill), it can sometimes cause changes in your menstrual cycle. Delayed or irregular periods are common side effects of emergency contraception.
Consult with a gynecologist who can evaluate your situation and provide appropriate guidance. They will be able to assess your symptoms, discuss potential causes for the delayed periods, and advise you on the best course of action.

I miscarried twice at the 7 thweek of pregnancy, I have fibroid and one of my fallopian tube is closed at one side , will i get pregnant and have any healthy baby
Female | 42
Fibroids and a blocked fallopian tube can pose obstacles in conceiving, but pregnancy remains possible. These conditions sometimes contribute to miscarriages or fertility issues. Working closely with your gynecologist is crucial to developing a suitable approach. Treatments exist that could enhance your chances of a successful pregnancy.

Good evening, dear doctors, I am writing to you because I am anxious and worried. I am 49 years old and have had very large fibroids for years that have never given me any problems, apart from swelling and the occasional early or very late period. This summer I had a gynecological visit with ultrasound because it had been about three years since I had a check-up due to anxiety problems that prevent me from going for visits and other fears. The visit went well in the sense that it was the same as three years ago but every doctor almost always suggested that I evaluate the option of removing it to eliminate the problem. This summer my period was a bit irregular, it came a little early, then spotting, then it ended as usual. In October I only had spotting for two weeks and that was it, in November spotting and then a very heavy period that ended a few days ago, still with very light spotting. In the grip of anxiety, I went to the gynecological clinic in my city, and he did a manual examination without an ultrasound, telling me that they are fibroids and to go to another gynecologist to evaluate what to do, I went to a gynecologist the other day and he did an ultrasound and an examination, apart from the fibroids that I already knew about, he told me that the endometrium is vascularized and a little irregular and measures 8mm. He told me that I need to look into it further. A few months ago it always measured 8 mm, but he didn't tell me anything. (He didn't talk to me about hormone levels or premenopause or anything else. I want to do hormone levels to see everything in general) I took a lot of antibiotics months ago for dental problems and I don't know if it could interfere with my cycle. I'm really desperate also because I have a lot of anxiety problems and this doesn't help... I hope it's nothing to worry about.. I'll try to look into it further. Thank you so much. Jenny Italy

It is very common to feel anxious about our menstrual cycles and fibroids changing. Unnaturalities in menstrual blood flow may be due to various factors such as hormonal changes, stress, or certain medications. An additional diagnostic step may be the determination of the blood vasculature in the endometrium. A sample hormone level testing will help your doctor to get the big picture and arrive at a diagnosis. Of course, honesty and open communication with your gynecologist is the key to a better treatment process.

Hi so I’ve had this pain in my right side for probably just over a year now. It stays like in my groin/hip area And it gets so uncomfortable that sometimes I can’t lie down on it or put pressure I’ve been to the hospital and they all say it’s nothing. It’s not my appendix. But I’ve been on the waiting list for 9 months now on the nhs to see a gynae.

I assume that you're on the left side with the discomfort in your hip/groin joint. Hence, you must consult a gynecologist to get a proper diagnosis of your condition.

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.
