Answered by Dr. Swapna Chekuri

If your menstrual cycle is lasting longer than usual, it might be a condition called menorrhagia. This means heavy bleeding for more than 7 days and can be due to hormone issues, fibroids, or certain medications. It's important to see a gynecologist to get the right diagnosis and treatment.

Why is my LMP gestation is 38 weeks 4 days and gestation age by BPD /FL is 34 weeks

Female | 24

The Last Menstrual Period (LMP) calculates gestation from the start of your last period, while gestational age by Biparietal Diameter (BPD) or Femur Length (FL) measures the baby's size. The difference in weeks might be due to variations in fetal growth rates. Your obstetrician can provide more insight and guidance based on these measurements. It's always best to consult them for a clearer understanding of your pregnancy progress.

Female | 20

No need to worry since pregnancy is rarely possible if the sperm only reaches the outside of the body. Stress or changes in routine may be the cause of your irregular periods sometimes. If you're afraid that something might be wrong, go and consult a gynecologist for the needed advice. You may rest well and ponder what is best for yourself!

It could also be a urinary tract infection, that might lead to similar symptoms. To ease the pain, you are suggested to drink a lot of water, stay away from caffeine and alcohol, and also put a hot pad on your lower belly. If the pain doesn't go away, it is important to seek a gynecologist for further evaluation and treatment.

I got my period on the 19th of November and it ended on the 25th of November. I had sex on the 1st of December without a condom and ejaculated outside. I bought and took Ella one emergency contraceptive pill in the afternoon of 2nd December. I just had sex again and also ejaculated outside, can I get pregnant?

Taking Ella one within 120 hours after unprotected sex reduces pregnancy risk . Ejaculating outside also reduces pregnancy risk . However , there is still a chance of pregnancy. Emergency contraceptives are not 100% effective. Use condoms for STI prevention.

I am 18 year old and i m suffer From vaginal itching inside after pee from 4-5 days and i had a UTI 2 months ago

Female | 18

Itchy vaginas after urinating might mean you have a urinary tract infection (UTI) again since you’ve had one before. UTIs may sometimes irritate. Ensure you drink enough water, avoid irritants such as fragranced soaps, and wear cotton panties. If the itchiness continues, it’s probably wise to see a gynecologist.
