The pill can sometimes interfere with the menstrual cycle, leading to a delayed period. Stress, weight, and diet changes, as well as hormonal problems, can also cause menstrual irregularities. You do not need to worry right now, you were not pregnant and it was less than a week ago.

Female | 19

Unwanted 72 is an emergency contraceptive. You did right taking it after unprotected intercourse. Sleepiness, spotting, stomach ache, and increased hunger are normal side effects. These aren't pregnancy signs. The pill works by preventing pregnancy. Your body needs time to adjust. Stay hydrated and relaxed. The symptoms will pass.

Skipping periods for two months is concerning. Reasons include stress, hormones, and weight changes. Back pain, fatigue, and headaches link to this. Maintain good habits: nutritious meals, staying hydrated, and adequate rest. Consider going to a gynecologist for guidance.

I took birth control pills a month ago and I just missed my period

Female | 19

It's natural for your monthly period to be delayed after starting birth control pills. This may occur because the pills influence your normal hormonal cycle. In some cases, your body may need to adapt and carry out the necessary changes operationally. Some other causes of a missed period can be tension, illness, or weight alteration. If you're still worried, you could be in contact with the gynecologist who initially gave you the pills.

i am a 20yr old female, i had sex a week and a half ago and he thinks he got my pregnant. we used condoms. i had my period two weeks ago. i am experiencing cramping, nausea, dizziness, and fatigue

Female | 20

Cramps, dizziness, feeling sick and tired are signs of many things, not just being pregnant. So you are less likely to be pregnant if it was only two weeks ago when your last period started and you used condoms. These symptoms could also be brought on by stress, changes in what you eat, or any illness. Anyway ensure that you drink lots of water, eat properly and rest enough. If these symptoms persist consult a gynecologist.

I have two times of period last march and then for april until now i missed my periods, i also take some pregnancy test and it says negative, what happened why i missed my period?

Female | 19

It’s normal to miss a period even if the pregnancy test says negative. Being nervous or having hormonal issues can make people miss their periods. Have you been under pressure lately or gained or lost some weight? If you have, that might be why you didn’t get your period. I would suggest that you keep an eye on your symptoms and go see a gynecologist if this continues to happen to you.

My age is 28 and weight is 65 kg. I have pcos. I have to take medice for triggering my periods. Otherwise it won't come even for 6 months. Initially i was taking regestron for my irregular periods.

And these tablets safe even if i am pregnant unknowingly. And why doctors giving diff medicines?

Female | 28

Irregular periods can feel difficult. Different bodies respond differently to medicines, which is why doctors may prescribe different things. These meds help regulate your cycle and are typically safe if you happen to be pregnant without realizing it. Since your periods are on the lighter side, you might want to discuss adjusting your medication dosage with your gynecologist.

Beta beta HCG 0.35 h kya ye postive h ya negative

Female | 28

A beta HCG level of 0.35 is very low, usually indicating a negative result (not pregnant). Although sometimes caused by other factors, pregnancy may still be detectable at this early stage in some cases. It is recommended that if one has symptoms suggestive of being with child or any concerns whatsoever then they should seek advice from their health care provider who will be able to offer appropriate counseling as well as additional tests.

I had unprotected sex but the sperm didn't come out iam i likely to get pregnant

Female | 25

Even without full ejaculation, there's a potential pregnancy risk due to sperm in pre-ejaculate fluid. Emergency contraception (morning-after pill) can reduce this risk if taken promptly. For contraception advice, consult your gynecologist. No method is entirely foolproof except abstinence.

Female | 23

It is common for women to have a brown discharge after they have sex. This could happen if she is about to start her period and has spotting. It might also be caused by stress, hormone changes, or a vaginal infection. She should watch out for any other symptoms such as pain or itching. If the brown discharge continues, advise her to see a gynecologist.

I took ipill on 6th april amd 8 days after that i got withdrawl bleeding but after that I didn’t get my normal periods till now The withdrawl bleeding was not heavy and was max for 2 days Last week on Sunday i did UPT but it was negative

Female | 21

Following the usage of some pills like I-pill, the period variation is ordinary. There are some times when it will take longer for the periods to be regular again. The reproductive system can be affected by being in a state of tension that is caused by either mental or emotional stress. We can not rule out other causes of the delay in menstruation therefore if you are concerned about anything it is advisable to see a gynecologist.

The prescribed usage for Normens tablets is 21 days. If I take them for 25 days, will there be any problem? Will my AMH level decrease?

Female | 40

When you take Normens tablets longer than the prescribed 21 days, it may cause hormonal imbalance. An extended use of 25 days will not greatly affect your AMH level. However, it’s better to follow the recommended period to prevent any possible dangers.

Female | 21

irregular PERIODS can be NORMAL, but two weeks is excessive. It's important to see a doctor to identify the underlying cause. There are many possible reasons, including HORMONAL imbalances, thyroid problems, FIBROIDS, or polyps.. Your doctor may recommend a pelvic exam, an ultrasound, or blood tests to identify the problem..It's important to address this issue as excessive bleeding can lead to anemia and other complications. Don't hesitate to seek medical attention.
