Why did I experience virginial bleeding after taking emergency contraceptive?

I am a girl aged 21 the previous night l noticed slight virginal bleeding l wore a pad in the morning l noticed the bleeding wasn't much as usual. The following day the bleeding was kinder normal without cramps however this morning l noticed my night pad doesn't even have a drop of blood. Upon calculating my cycle was supposed to start 5 days from today. I had unprotected sex 8 days ago l took emergency contraceptive just a few hours after sex.

It's understandable to be concerned about your symptoms after recent events. Light bleeding can occur for multiple reasons, such as hormonal fluctuations or the use of emergency contraception leading to temporary changes in the cycle, which is a very common one. Since your period is expected in a few days, it’s possible that what you experienced was an irregularity. If the bleeding doesn't stop or if you have other concerns, I recommend that you see a gynecologist who will perform a comprehensive examination.

It is impossible to diagnose your pregnancy under the circumstances without a pregnancy test and a checkup. A gynaecologist specialises in women's reproductive health and can provide the proper medical advice and treatment.

I am 33 years old woman..I took abortion pills misoprost and mifegerine and I just get little blood than it stops...plzz tell me what to do..is my abortion complete or not.

Female | 33

Taking abortion pills can make you bleed a little but it is usual to have some bleeding. If the bleeding goes away quickly and you have only a small amount of bleeding after, it can mean that the abortion is done. Just chill out and see how you feel. If you have intense pain, fever, or heavy bleeding, go to the nearest hospital without delay.

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.

Today morning I did pregnant test I have seen faint line on it can u see the image and tell me that I am consive or not

Female | 22

A faint line may mean you are pregnant, but it could also be due to various factors such as the test's sensitivity, the timing of the test, or evaporation lines. For a more accurate result, you can repeat the test using the first urine of the morning, as it is usually more concentrated.

I am 20 years old girl i had sex on may 10th night and i had ipill on may 13th after that some side effects had started like white discharge and stomach bloating and severe pain on stomach and now my stomach pain is normal and i dont know if i get pregnant soon

Female | 20

Taking an emergency contraceptive pill (like the i-pill) within a day or two after intercourse may reduce the chances of pregnancy, but it's not a guarantee. If you're concerned about pregnancy, take a home pregnancy test around the time of your expected period.

I have recently got vaginal yeast infection. I used fluca 150 then. After a month I got the same issue. I need to solve the issue.

Female | 21

Recurrent yeast infections are common and it occurs due to a variety of reasons such as a weak immune system, other health conditions, or an incomplete treatment of the initial infection. Get a proper diagnosis and practice good hygiene.

MISSING a period can be NORMAL.. STRESS, weight, and exercise changes can cause it.. TESTING negative for PREGNANCY means you are not PREGNANT.. CONSULT a DOCTOR if you have CONCERNS..

Hi, I had sex on 30th November, my period start date was 15th November with a 28 day period cycle. I had ellaone 30mg within an hour of sex as the condom slipped and was empty when checked. Please advice if it is safe.

Female | 29

Taking ellaOne within an hour of sex reduces pregnancy risk.. ellaOne is 98% effective if taken immediately after sex. ellaOne may cause side effect like HEADACHE, nausea, and FAitGue.. ellaOne is not effective after 5 days of sex.. If you miss your period, take a pregnancy test...
