If you see any blood while taking the Depo birth control shot it is likely that you will experience abnormal bleeding in the first months. If the bleeding is heavy or prolonged, you will be able to get over-the-counter drugs e.g. ibuprofen to make the bleeding less. It is better to drink a lot of water and take a good rest. If nothing helps, or you get worse, discuss the situation with your gynecologist for appropriate advice.

My period is late for 13days and then i take unwanted 72tablet

Female | 22

If you have concerns about potential pregnancy or irregular periods, consider taking a pregnancy test or consulting with a healthcare professional for personalized advice. Also keep in mind that unwanted 72 is not a regular form of birth control and should only be used as an emergency measure.

Hello, I have a question in the field of gynecology. My cycles last approx. 30 days. I had unprotected sex on April 13. but the parter did not ejaculate in me, but stated that he felt some fluid coming out of him, but he stopped intercourse, after which he ejaculated outside of me. I took the EllaOne pill 3 days after, just in case. A week after the pill, I took a Clearblue early pregnancy test and it was negative, and on Thursday (9 days after the pill) I started bleeding lightly (then it was the day before my expected period). The bleeding started mildly, but after a couple of hours, red blood and a stronger stream appeared. On the 4th day, the bleeding stopped, but there was still blood in the vagina. The cervix is ​​hard, lowered and slightly open. Yesterday (day 5) the bleeding started again but much milder than usual (my periods usually last 7 days) and in the afternoon the pad was empty again. I took another pregnancy test, an early Clearblue test (16 days after intercourse) and again it was negative. Today, slight bleeding appeared again, but not enough to soak the pad, I have slight cramps in my stomach and back. I'm under a lot of stress all the time. I'm wondering if it's possible that I'm pregnant or if the pill messed with my hormones. I am asking for your answer. Kind regards.

Hi I'm FAVOUR, I missed my period for 2 months and I wasn't pregnant. I went for test and they said I have infection ( staphylococcus erus and candida albican), after which I was given 3 days injections of antibiotics. A week after the injection and treatment, I saw my period that lasted for 5 days but it wasn't flowing as usual. A week after seeing the period, I started seeing brown discharge coming out of my vagina and now it's not longer brown discharge that's coming out, it's blood, a heavy flow of blood is pouring out of my body 24/7, and it's been flowing like this for close to 2 weeks now, please what can I do?

The infection that you had might be the reason that your menstruation has changed and thus uneven bleeding has happened. Infections can sometimes cause heavy bleeding or irregular periods. The brown discharge you saw may have been old blood mingled with the vaginal discharge. Should the heavy bleeding continue, contacting a healthcare provider is vital to get a more thorough evaluation and care.

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.

I am using Diane 35 pills. After 6 days of using we have sexual intercourse. It is possible Po ba that i am pregnant

Female | 28

If you have taken your Diane 35 pills correctly and consistently as prescribed then chances of becoming pregnant are very low. But if you have missed any pills or taken them late, the risk of pregnancy increases. Just to be sure you can take a pregnancy test.
