Am I Safe from Pregnancy After Taking Emergency Contraceptive?

Patient's Query

Hello sir / madam. My girlfriend started her periods on saturday evenings and ended her periods on Tuesday so we had unprotected sex on Friday morning and after sex I gave her I pill is she safe from pregnancy

Gynecologyy

Answered by Dr. Himali Patel

Starting on a Saturday and closing on Tuesday is a typical cycle. In addition, having unprotected sex near the period can result in pregnancy. After sex, you can give her a morning-after pill; this will lower but not eliminate the chances of conception. Remember, every instance of unprotected intercourse carries with it the risk of becoming pregnant. Should she develop any strange signs or miss her next period, the best thing would be to take a test at home or go see a gynecologist who will provide further help.

I'm unsure if my tampon came out or is stuck too far up. I can't feel anything but I know I didn't take it out. What should I do?

Female | 30

If you're uncertain about your tampon, try to gently feel for the string. If you can't locate it or are still unsure, see a healthcare professional promptly for an examination. Avoid attempting removal without guidance to prevent complications.

Irregular periods i had irregular periods for last 2 month am get periods lastly on April 28 but still i didn't

Female | 21

If you experience irregular periods for more than two months, you should also check if there are any other symptoms you might be feeling. Indeed, the irregular period problems you have are some other problems such as stress, weight changes, and hormonal imbalance. Look after your stress levels, maintain a healthy weight, and counseling with a gynecologist for further advice and help.

Pregnant - is it normal getting spotting

Female | 25

This can happen in the first trimester and it's usually harmless. It could be because of the baby's implantation, swollen cervix, or other reasons. However, if there's heavy bleeding, severe pain, or another worrisome symptom you should consult with a gynecologist for proper evaluation and guidance. They can provide personalized care and ensure the health of both the mother and the baby.

Break upper lips of vagina due to past masturbate but no symptoms is a serious issue or not ??and create problem in sex!???And how can we do this

Female | 22

Breaks in the upper lip of the vagina due to a past habit of masturbation are quite common. The good news is, if you do not have any symptoms, it may not be a serious problem. But, it may cause you to feel pain during sex. To help, first of all, keep the region clean and then apply a water-based lubricant during intercourse. The best course of action is to see a gynecologist for advice if any symptoms appear.

My gf has taken Unwanted 72 a day before her period date, so when will her periods come and what to do to get her periods early?

Female | 20

Taking Unwanted 72 before her period can change your girlfriend's cycle. That time may come earlier or later than expected. This medicine can cause irregular bleeding or spotting. It's best not to rush and let her body get used to the natural adjustment. One should encourage her to take a lot of liquids, to have a balanced diet, and at the same time to manage stress. If it's taking too long or she feels any other abnormalities, it is important to seek help from a gynecologist.

I am 15 years old and I am very sexually active. Me and my partner haven’t used protection in a long time. I have been very red, irritated, and itchy down there and it’s very uncomfortable. what should I do? What could it be??

Female | 15

You might have a yeast infection. When the balance of the good and bad bacteria in your body is upset, yeast infections can occur. A burning sensation, redness, and irritation are common symptoms of a yeast infection in your private area. To relieve the discomfort, you may try over-the-counter antifungal creams. It is important to discuss this with a trusted adult or a gynecologist for proper assessment and treatment.

My pattern took misoprostol on Thursday morning by 7am started having moderate cramping but less bleeding.. around 3pm bleeding come but very less stop

Male | 30

Light bleeding after misoprostol is common. The flow may start slowly, then increase gradually. However, very light or sudden stop could indicate issues like incomplete abortion or hormonal factors. Stay hydrated, take rest. If bleeding doesn't pick up, contact your gynecologist for advice.

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.

My periods got delayed and I'm getting light brown liquid discharge with very small blood clots sometimes. What's the reason? Is it normal?

Female | 17

A late period accompanied by light brown discharge with small blood clots is usually the result of hormonal disbalance, stress or pregnancy. I suggest that you see a gynecologist for an examination and appropriate diagnosis. The gynecologist is the best specialist to consult for any problem relating to menstrual health.

Female | 17

You might be having some side effects from your drugs or hormonal changes. The tiredness, nausea, breakouts, and metallic taste could mean different things. One possibility is that the pill is causing these symptoms, especially if you are new to taking it. Your feelings can also be influenced by the hormones in birth control or antidepressants. There is also a chance that you might be pregnant if you have had sex recently. Talk about this with a gynecologist so they can give you advice tailored specifically for you based on what’s going on with your body.

can i get pregnant even i have intramural myoma

Female | 25

Myomas are non-cancerous growths inside the uterus wall. Having one doesn't necessarily prevent pregnancy. Although heavy periods or pelvic pain may occur, many women still conceive successfully. If struggling to get pregnant, medication or surgery could potentially help. However, each case differs, so consult a gynecologist for personalized guidance on improving fertility chances with a myoma present.

Amoxicillin, antihistamines, Vitamin C, Ketrax, Vitamin B complex, and Ampiclox are some of the common drugs that are used. However, it’s important to consult a gynecologist or an obstetrician to confirm whether they are safe to use during pregnancy.

My period are missed and discharge is coming so much

Female | 14

Excessive discharge and non-existent periods might have several causes. Some examples are hormonal imbalances, stress, certain medications, or underlying health conditions. You must also be observant of other signs such as pain in the abdomen or alterations in your appetite, in addition to those problems. Drinking water, eating properly, and stress control through relaxation can sometimes boost your cycle's regularity. In case the symptoms continue and become more severe, visit a gynecologist.
