Why is my period 19 days late?

I last had my period on January 4, 2025, but it's now February 21 and I still haven't gotten my next period. This isn't the first time I've experienced irregular periods. In November 2023, my periods stopped for a while before resuming. Throughout 2024, I practiced yoga and drank herbal teas like ginger, turmeric, and cinnamon to help regulate my cycle. Despite these efforts, my periods remained irregular. Now, I'm 19 days late. What could be the reason for this delay, and what should I do?"

It's not uncommon to experience irregular menstrual cycles, especially at your age. Several factors could contribute to this delay, including stress, hormonal imbalances, weight changes, or underlying health issues. Your lifestyle choices, like yoga and herbal teas, may help, but they might not be enough to regulate your cycle completely. I recommend taking a home pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy first. Regardless of the outcome, considering a visit with a gynecologist would be beneficial. They can offer guidance tailored to your situation and help identify any underlying causes for your irregular periods.

I am a male ,and having difference in breast size , and after touching while sleeping I can feel some tissues in bigger one , my age is 29 years

Male | 29

The mass you feel in the larger part could be a sign of gynecomastia. It is due to the uneven formation of the right and left breast parts. It is not of the essence to seek the doctor's advice but in case you are uncomfortable other than talking to the doctor, you can go to the hospital to check the asymmetry.

I am not having my periods from 3 months

Female | 13

It is normal for girls to not have­ their period some time­s. The big reason is often change­s in hormones. Stress, losing or gaining weight fast, and too much e­xercise can all cause misse­d periods. Living a healthy life and not be­ing stressed can help. If you are­ worried, it is good to talk to someone you trust, like­ a parent or the nurse at school.

Got inflammation results in pap smear but not at all cancerous, then is it recommended to go for HPV vaccination

Female | 41

the best advice I can give you is to follow your gynecologist's instructions. You have to keep monitoring inflammation through regular clinic visits and your doctor should always be consulted in case of any abnormalities. Even though the inflammation itself may not be cancerous, it could still be the product of HPV, which, in turn, is linked to cancer. In case you have not yet received the HPV vaccine, you may suggest taking it as a preventative measure.

I am using vaginal pessaries since 3 days as I have yeast infection. But today I got my periods. Can i still use vaginal pessaries Or i should stop using it??

Female | 22

While me­nstruating, it's fine to continue using vaginal pessarie­s. Yeast infections may cause discomfort like­ itching, burning, and abnormal discharge. Pessaries de­liver medication directly whe­re neede­d, treating the infection. Follow usage­ instructions for pessaries during your period.
