Why is my period lasting longer than usual?
The thing is I had an unprotected intercourse last month and a mistake actually happen and I ought to use postinor 2 for the first time to prevent any form of pregnancy. But after that my period did not flow well that month so I actually thought it's may be due to the drug so I waited the next month to see if there will be changes although it's doesn't flow much like before again but it's still better than the last period but the issues now is that am still seeing it after 5days which is my normal period length and it's going to like 8days now?

Your menstrual cycle seems different after Postinor 2. That's normal. The emergency pill can affect periods. You might bleed irregularly or your flow changes. It depends how your body reacts. If issues continue, talk to your doctor. Different people have varied responses to medicines.

I'm a 21 yr female I have question that if I'm taking ethinylestradiol and cyproterone acetate tablets and had unprotected sex is there a chance of pregnancy and before sex I have been taking this pills from 2-3 days
Female | 21
Contraception is the most common application of ethinylestradiol and cyproterone acetate tablets. Almost always, if you are taking the tablets in the indicated manner, you won't get pregnant. However, if you made love without putting on a condom during 2-3 days of pill usage, you might get pregnant. Other signs of pregnancy are headache, shooting pains in the abdomen, and swollen feet. In addition to the tablets, identify other birth control and ask about it from a gynecologist if you want to be on the safe side.

I have a reoccurring vaginal pimple on my left labia. this has been happening for a couple of months and i shave frequently, though this happens when there more sweat and shaving involved. the pimple shows up typically one to two weeks after shaving. i was wondering if i should be worried especially if it’s reoccurring?
Female | 17
It may be caused due to ingrown hair, blocked hair follicles, or skin irritation from shaving or sweat. TO avoid this, u can try keeping the area clean, wearing loose-fitting clothing, and considering alternative hair removal methods. If it still doesn't heal then check with a gynecologist for proper treatment.

I am 19 years old my vagina is itching worsely since 12 days what should i do to make it stop
Female | 19
It may happen because of a yeast infection or irritation from soap or tight clothes. In some cases, it could also indicate a sexually transmitted disease. In order to relieve yourself from this itching sensation apply normal water while cleaning the area, put on loose cotton underwear, and stay away from scented substances. Make sure you consult a gynecologist if it doesn't go away.

Aapki pregnancy se judi kuch samasyaon ka samadhan dene ke liye yahan hoon. Aam tor par, nausea, thakan, aur mood swings dekhe ja sakte hain. Yeh aam hai aur hormonal parivartan ki wajah se hote hain. Agar kisi specific chinta ki baat hai, to us par vistar se baat karna zaroori hai. Hydration aur healthy khana le kar, aap in parishaniyon ko halka kar sakti hain.

Mera period time pe aya but bleeding bikul nhi hua ,iska kya karan hai ,isse darne bale bat nhi na hai
Female | 21
It’s not uncommon for your period to show up on schedule but be light. It might be because of stress, a hormone imbalance, extreme weight loss, or a change in your routine. These things can all impact your menstrual cycle. Take care of yourself by relaxing, eating well, and getting enough sleep. If this keeps happening then speaking with a gynecologist would be wise to check if everything is alright.

My last period date was 1st April , i had taken ipill on 7th April and till now that is on 14th may I haven't got my periods , pregnancy test is negative, doctor prescribed deviry for 7 days , i will get my periods na
Female | 22
Ipill can sometimes affect your menstrual cycle and cause a delay in your period. Additionally, stress, hormonal changes, or other factors can also contribute to irregular menstrual cycles. After completing the course of Deviry, you may experience withdrawal bleeding, which is similar to a period.It can take a few days to a week after finishing the medication for this bleeding to occur.

Irregular period and overbleeding
Female | 27
Heavy bleeding between periods can indicate underlying issues. It may be due to hormonal imbalances or growths in the uterus. Symptoms include prolonged periods, spotting between cycles, and irregular cycle lengths. It's important to see your gynecologist to identify the cause. Treatment options may involve hormones or surgery, helping to restore balance and provide relief.

Mera misscareg 1 month 2din ho gaya lekin abhi tak period nahi aaya hai kya kare
Female | 25
After a miscarriage, it is normal for your menstrual cycle to take some time to return to its regular pattern. The time it takes for your periods to resume can vary from person to person.
In most cases, it may take a few weeks to a couple of months for your menstrual cycle to return to normal after a miscarriage. This delay is often due to hormonal changes and the body's natural healing process.

Actually mujhe period K liye poochna h
Female | 23
Periods ke dauran aam taur par kuch symptoms hote hain, jaise dard, mood swings, aur thakan. Yeh hormonal changes ki wajah se hote hain. Agar aapko zyada takleef ho rahi hai, toh kuch ghar ke ilaj, jaise garam paani se sekna ya over-the-counter pain relievers le sakte hain. Healthy khana aur hydration bhi madadgar hote hain. Agar aapko lagta hai ki symptoms zyada intense hain ya aapki cycle irregular hai, toh ek gynecologist se milna zaroori hai. Wo aapko proper guidance denge aur agar koi specific issue hai toh uska samadhan bhi bata sakte hain.

I am having so much sex with my husband that I am not able to conceive a baby. What medicine should I take now to conceive a baby? Please give me a quick solution.
Female | 21
Engaging in frequent intimate relations doesn’t necessarily guarantee pregnancy, as timing and ovulation play crucial roles. It's essential to track your menstrual cycle to determine the best days for conception. If pregnancy remains elusive after several months, consider exploring factors like hormonal balance or any underlying health issues. While there are supplements to support fertility, please consult with a gynecologist for personalized advice and appropriate treatment options. They can conduct tests and guide you toward a tailored plan to enhance your chances of conceiving.

So i had the nexaplon implant in my arm inserted on the 3may and has sex that day now I missed my period with 3 days that was due on the 20th may so I just want to know if I could be pregnant
Female | 30
If you’ve recently had the Nexplanon implant inserted, your body may just be getting used to this new method of birth control. Not getting your period or having irregular periods are common signs when starting with it. But take into account the possibility of getting pregnant even if you’re on any other birth control method in case you’ve had sexual intercourse. There are various signs of pregnancy, some may include missed periods, nausea or feeling sick, being tired all the time, or having sore breasts. To clear your doubts or worries you can do a test, take one. On the other hand, it is important to always talk to your gynecologists.

Female | 31
It's crucial you take prescribed meds, mainly during pregnancy. Spotting red blood seems problematic. Missing a progesterone tablet may mess with hormone levels, thus causing the spotting episode. Promptly contact your gynecologist about missed doses and the spotting.

Irregular period solution
Female | 29
Irregular menstrual cycles can manifest as missed periods, variations in flow, or unexpected bleeding. Common reasons include hormonal imbalances, stress, excessive weight changes, or underlying health issues like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). To manage this, it’s essential to maintain a balanced lifestyle, including a nutritious diet, regular exercise, and effective stress management techniques. Tracking your cycle can also provide insights. However, I encourage you to consult with a gynecologist for personalized evaluation and recommendations.

I had spotting after a 1.5 years without a period. I'm 49 years old. I did have sex one week ago so wonder if that could cause the spotting. I have also had menopause symptoms for the past 3 or 4 years
Female | 49
It is normal to feel worried if you see spots after not having a period for a long time. At 49, you might be going through the change of life, which can cause bleeding that does not follow a pattern. Having sex can sometimes make spots appear due to hormone changes or thinning of the vagina tissues. If you have been having menopause signs for a few years now, it is likely the cause. Do not worry, but if the spots keep happening or you have concerns, it is always a good idea to talk with a gynecologist.

Is mifestad 10 effective as an emergency contraceptive pill? It's a pill made from Vietnam.
Female | 23
As for Mifestad 10, it is not an emergency birth control pill. Emergency contraceptive pills can either contain levonorgestrel or ulipristal acetate. If you have had unprotected sex, it's best to use a recognized emergency contraceptive pill to prevent pregnancy. Remember the greater the time between unprotected intercourse and the taking of emergency contraception, the less effective it is.

I had my last periods on 28 December 2024 but I took 4 tablets of overal l bd on the same day After that I didn't get my periods on the expected date so I got an ultrasound on which there was a hemorrhagic cyst in my ovary. I was prescribed ipill 21 bd for 5 days to get withdrawal bleeding which I took from 5 feb to 9 feb but still didn't get any bleeding On 15 Feb I took urine pregnancy test which was negative and also had ultrasound which was normal What should I do
Female | 23
It's understandable to be concerned about your missed period and the recent findings. Hemorrhagic cysts can cause hormonal changes, leading to irregular cycles. While your pregnancy test came back negative and ultrasound showed normal results, it's important to monitor your symptoms. I recommend keeping track of any further changes and consulting your gynecologist for a personalized plan. They may suggest additional tests or treatments to regulate your cycle and address the cyst.

I am 50 yrs old female need advice on femilon contraceptive pills .. I hv started femilon from my 3 rd day of menses n hv been tking regular for 1 wek n later I had intercourse n after that continued tablets for few more days but after 10 days of tking femilon I skipped one tablet one night n took 2 tablets the nxt day n again continued till today n yet 21 days not over so wanted to knw is there any risk of pregnancy if I missed tablet n took 2 tablets in one day n what if I dnt get periods after 21 tablets get over ? Should I continue femilon n finish 21 days or should I stop when will I get periods n is any risk of pregnancy at this age ?
Female | 50
If you miss a pill and then take two on the next day, you may reduce its effectiveness a little, but because you are still weeks away from the beginning, the chances of getting pregnant are minimal. You still should continue to take your pills in the same way that you are used to and you will have to finish the 21 days. If your period does not come after you have taken the whole pack, it is normal for some girls and especially of your age, due to the hormone changes and it can be nothing to worry about. If you have ongoing concerns or symptoms, please consult a gynecologist about this for personal and particular advice.
