Will taking levonorgestrel prior to ovulation be effective?
Is levenogestrel effective if we take it 3 days before expected ovulation day
Gynecologist
Answered on 7th Jan '25
Levonorgestrel, a taken-in time, is a very effective controlling unplanned intercourse, which is the most effective if it is taken after unprotected intercourse but before ovulation. Taking it three days prior may reduce the likelihood of preventing pregnancy, as ovulation could still occur. It's made to stop ovulation and fertilization. However, the time you use it is very important. In case you're thinking about pregnancy problems that might come, look into the possibilities such as emergency contraception. It's also wise to discuss your options with your physician to receive personalized advice.

Missed my periods. I'm not sure what's the reason but it maybe because I'm sexually active but I did take precautions. My late first day of period was on 5feb and today it is 23 march I'm still not having my period. I take urine pregency test many time and everytime it's negative.
Female | 25
Missing your period can be worrisome, especially if you've been intimate. Anxiety, weight fluctuations, or hormonal imbalances might cause delayed cycles. Negative pregnancy tests suggest it's likely, not pregnancy-related. Consulting a gynecologist is advisable to investigate potential causes.

Female | 27
FPP ultrasound, short for 'fetal biophysical profile ultrasound,' is a special test ordered by your doctor to check your baby's health at 36 weeks. This test evaluates your baby's movements, muscle tone, breathing, and overall well-being to ensure everything is normal. It's a routine test to confirm that the fetus is healthy and won't need any intervention.

Had sex on 11 day after period, I pill taken after 23 hours, 11 days to go their is no periods
Female | 20
It’s fine if your period is late after taking Plan B because it messes with your cycle. Some symptoms like spotting, feeling sick, or changes in the timing of your menstrual cycle are pretty normal too. Remember that stress may also cause a delay in your period so try not to worry too much about it. Everything should return to normal soon enough. If not though, then maybe think about getting a pregnancy test.

Green discharge problem and unregular periods
Female | 28
Green discharge may mean an infection, for instance, a sexually transmitted infection (STI) or an imbalance in vaginal bacteria. Meanwhile, irregular periods can be caused by so-called hormonal imbalances, stress, or even health conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). A gynecologist is necessary for testing, and they can then prescribe antibiotics or hormone therapy, as the case may be, to get to the root cause of the problem.

I engaged in sex for last time , my periods was late for two days, I don't have any pregnancy related symptoms.i don't know iam pregnant or not
Female | 20
It's common to worry if your period is late after sex. Pregnancy symptoms like tiredness, breast tenderness, or nausea can occur, but you're feeling something different, right? Don't panic! Stress or changes in your routine are often the main reasons for a delayed period. Wait a bit longer, and if your period doesn't come, consider taking a pregnancy test.

Female | 17
You should know that delays are sometimes part of life and they could be not only due to stress but also to hormones, eating, and exercising to which one is subjected. Since you have gone through a period of unregulated lifestyle, the issue can be resolved by making changes in your living habits and considering writing a diary of your menses for follow-up of the cycles. No period monitoring turns out irregular a continuous visit to a gynecologist is recommend. After examining you, they can recommend different insights and of course, prescribe treatment that suits you.

I am 28 years old female are pregnant 10 weeks march 8 was my last period started . I had all the paims back boons and period like pains but now only reast pain is ot normal
Female | 28
It's common to encounter early pregnancy-related back pain and period-like pains. This pain is normal and may occur due to the changes occurring in the breast. However, discussing the issue with the doctor may provide some comfort. Sore breasts are a symptom; they are a sign that the person will have periods soon. The mammary glands are currently in a high growth phase, provoking inflammation in the area. It's now a good idea to have a supportive bra on and stretch very gently. In case of any complications arising from pain or if any adverse symptoms appeared inquire with your gynecologist for support.

I had sex with my gf on 14 march she took unwanted 72 within an hour but she didn't get periods yet.
Female | 19
Delays in menstrual cycles can happen when using medications like Unwanted 72. The pill interferes with hormonal regulation, leading to earlier or later periods than usual. Additionally, stress plays a role in menstrual timing irregularities. Stay calm, as it may resolve itself soon. However, if concerns persist or symptoms worsen, consulting a gynecologist is advisable.

I am a 25 years old lady I have a problem on my private parts it itchy radishes with rashes and am 5 weeks pregnant and also my partner have the same rashes I want to the clinic and they gave me fungi stop tube and 500 pills but it's still itchy
Female | 25
This is common, especially in warm and moist areas. Rashes and itchiness are common symptoms. The cream and pills you were given are usually effective but sometimes it may take time. Ensure both of you use the medicine as prescribed. Keep the area clean and dry, avoid wearing tight clothes, and try not to scratch. If the itchiness persists, go back to the clinic.

Which medicine is safe and good to stop periods permanently
Female | 13
Using drugs, it is not safe to completely halt menstruation. The lining of your body is shed during periods, which are a natural occurrence. If you experience extremely heavy or painful periods, there are some safe ways to deal with it. Consult your gynecologist regarding birth control pills or an IUD that can make them lighter or stop altogether but not forever.

I had done an unprotected sex on 20th march and my period date is 24th march but I did not get my period and today is 30th March. Plz help me what to do?
Female | 19
Worrying when periods are late after unprotected sex is normal. Stress can disrupt menstrual cycles, yes. But pregnancy or hormonal shifts might also cause delays. Anxiousness or tension indicate stress. Taking an at-home pregnancy test provides certainty. Managing stress is key too - exercise, confiding in friends. Periods will return when the root issue resolves.

I am 24 year old female I want a ask that from last few days I have been suffering from pain and burnt in my private part few days befor while I was washing my private part I think little of soap has gone in it so it the pain due to that reason? Will it causes any problem in it ? What should I do which medicine should i use ? Please tell me
Female | 24
Yes the pain and burning sensation is due to irritation from the soap. Soap can sometimes cause irritation and disrupt the natural balance of the sensitive skin in that area. If this happens just rinse the area thoroughly with clean water and avoid using any harsh soaps, fragrances, or other irritants in that area.

Am 22 unmarried is bar mujy period howy ha mera blood brown rha ha why but no symptoms pain only brown blood
Female | 22
A brown period can indicate it is old blood that has been in the body for some time before it came out of the system. It's a normal phenomenon and not something to be overly concerned about. Some women experience mild pain as a natural occurrence with periods. Drink lots of fluids, eat healthy, and get sufficient sleep. If this problem persists for several cycles or if you have some anxiety, consulting a gynecologist is the best option.
