Answered by Dr. Swapna Chekuri

Hormonal imbalances, stress, or underlying health issues may explain the sudden change in menstrual flow with one color having spots. Such symptoms can be caused by a condition such as polycystic ovarian syndrome, thyroid problems, or reproductive disorders. It's essential that you get the actual cause diagnosed by a gynecologist and you can be given the best treatment suitable for curing you.

My period is late for about 4 days... I use pregnancy kit ,but it showd negative...wen should I take HCG BLOOD TEST...HOW MANY DAYS AFTER I SHOULD TAKE IT

Female | 31

You can wait a few more days before considering a blood test for pregnancy. Home pregnancy tests detect pregnancy hormones (hCG) in your urine, but the levels might not be high enough to register immediately after a missed period.

hi,my mom, who is 55, experienced menopause a decade ago. However, she has recently noticed some unexpected bleeding. I thought menopause meant no more periods. Why is she bleeding after 10 years of menopause? Should we be concerned, and what should we do about it?

Female | 55

An abnormal vaginal bleed after menopause could indicate the presence of uterine cancer or endometrial hyperplasia and hormonal imbalance. I recommend that your mother consult a gynecologist immediately. A gynecological oncologist is a specialist who can diagnose her in more detail and prescribe treatment if necessary.

I missed my period recently bt I didn’t had any sexual activities. Am I gonna be fine? When Can I possibly get my period again? Is there any way to get it again?

Female | 18

Not having your period can be a little scary even if you haven’t been engaging in sex. when this happens, the main causes can be stress, weight change, hormonal imbalance, or starting a new medication. Your period should come within a few weeks. But until then try to relax more often than not, eat balanced meals every day, exercise regularly, and manage stress. If it doesn’t show up when expected then it might be a good idea for you to see a gynecologist for a check-up.

Hello, I had unprotected sex Saturday June 1st and yesterday June 2nd I was bleeding I'm not sure if it's my period or something else but my partner did pull out and sperm got into my vagina. But I think my menstrual came yesterday. Should I be worried?

Female | 17

There are many reasons why someone would bleed after having sex without protection. It may be your period starting, irritation, or something else. Should this bleeding become heavy or go on for too long, it’s best to see a gynecologist.

Female | 35

Taking a pregnancy test is the first thing you should do if you think you missed your period after unprotected sex. If your test gives a positive result, make an appointment with an OB/GYN right away. However, if the test is negative, and you still have not had your period after seven days, you should also visit a gynecologist to figure out what could be causing the delay.

Experiencing unusual vaginal discharge or spotting after sex could result from various factors such as infections, hormonal changes, or minor irritation. Consult a gynecologist for proper evaluation and guidance. Maintain good hygiene, wear breathable underwear, and seek medical attention if symptoms worsen or persist.

Also having bleeding brownish light bleeding on 18th November.

Female | 22

you should seek gynecologist consultation and advice for treating your condition. Your negative beta HCG test means that you are not pregnant. Your brownish-light bleeding may be a result of hormonal change or side effects due to the administration of the hormone tablets.

Hey can you have regular period and feel pregnancy symptoms in 2 weeks and miss your period

Female | 29

You can have normal periods and notice the signs of pregnancy. Some symptoms of the early stages of pregnancy are sickness, fatigue, and sensitive breasts. If you have these indications and miss a period, it might mean that you are pregnant. But don’t worry too much because there could still be other reasons behind it like stress or hormonal imbalances that mimic the same signs. To be on the safe side, take a home test kit for pregnancy from any drugstore near your area, or visit a gynecologist who will give you accurate results.

Infections in vagina and irritation

Female | 24

It might be a vaginal infection which leads to irritation that you are probably going through. The signs may be red itching, unusual discharge, and discomfort. The infection can be caused by bacteria, yeast, and other reasons. To alleviate the irritation, try wearing cotton underwear, avoiding scented products, and keeping the area clean. If the symptoms do not go away, it is crucial to get medical advice from a gynecologist to get the right diagnosis and treatment.

I sex after 2 days of her periods his period cycle was 31 days can it's safe

Male | 23

Sex 48 hours after a woman's period will in most cases not lead to any problems. On average, 31-day cycles put the woman in her fertile days on day 17. In case they're focused on pregnancy being the right time to conceive, they should still use highly effective protection during the whole cycle. If they see any unusual signs such as pain or abnormal bleeding, they should go to the gynecologist for help.

Female | 22

One should seek consultation from a gynecologist who specializes in PCOD. Short and painful periods are typical cases of PCOD. The presence of cysts in the left ovary necessitates medical attention as well. The doctor may recommend treatment via medication or surgery based on the level of severity. Timely medical help should be sought to prevent any complications.

Female | 23

Considering the prevailing symptoms you have, it is a good thing that you took pregnancy tests already. As a result of being negative, the probability of a pregnancy is low, but it does not mean that it can't happen. Your irregular menstrual periods, stressfulness, insomnia at night, and obesity, along with other symptoms can be due to hormonal imbalances, stress, or nutritional deficiencies. A visit to the gynecologist is a must. The gynecologist might suggest blood tests or other possible exams to identify the reason behind your missed periods and other symptoms.
