Hi, i got my last periods on February 28th after that i had intercouse only once on 6th of march and we use pull out method, usually i got periods 4 days earlier from the last periods which means on march 24th. Mostly but not always. I'm anxious about pregnancy. I want to avoid pregnancy. It's a month of fasting my diet sleeping pattern everything changed. What maybe the reason for delay in periods. And what should i do to get my periods immediately. I need to wait for few more days or can i use some natural contraceptive methods. Can you please suggest me.

Female | 28

Periods delay may happen due to reasons of stress, diet change, or irregular sleep patterns. If you have concern then go for a pregnancy test. I will propose you to go to a gynaecologist for the same. It is advisable to approach a specialist in case of any health condition and do not count on natural contraceptive methods since they are not fully reliable.

Taking the i-pill twice in a short span can lead to hormonal imbalances and side effects, and your symptoms may require medical evaluation. Please contact a healthcare professional as soon as possible to discuss your symptoms and concerns.

I missed 3 days of my period and on 4th day i got bleeding..i am confused that its my period or implantation bleeding. pregnancy test shows negative..

Female | 33

MISSING PERIOD followed by BLEEDING can have multiple causes.. IMPLANTATION BLEEDING occurs before a MISSED PERIOD.. NEGATIVE PREGNANCY TEST indicates it may not be IMPLANTATION BLEEDING.. Consult a DOCTOR for further evaluation of the CAUSE.

So I have had sex twice in my life ....but at both times it was protected sex like we used condoms ......tho the second time ....it took a short time ...like i lost gas before it was that intense... But like let's after a week or two ...I had my periods..it was a heavy flow with painful cramps and it happened the usual way for me ....then the next month I missed my periods.... Ps..have always had unstable periods from the very start of experiencing them ...so missing my periods that month didn't really scare me But now this month (second month from the time I had sex) I vomited once and I think it was cause of my ulcers ...then I barely excrete.....I don't over pee unless I drink a lot .....I have always over slept even before and I still over sleep .....I have always been lazy but there's a way I feel so weak in my body and I don't know if it's cause I might be pregnant....have done several tests and its always indicating negative results... So now please help me describe what the problem with me might be

Female | 21

Heavy periods, missed periods, vomiting, and weakness are the common symptoms that can be an indication of several things, but since your tests revealed the negative, pregnancy seems to be out of the question. Hormonal imbalances, stress, or it could even be your ulcers. As a suggestion, see a gynecologist for a correct diagnosis and medication. Be sure to drink plenty of water and watch your stress levels to improve your health.

my period just ended last week and yesterday I started seeing a brown discharge mixed with blood on my pant what does it mean

Female | 18

The brown, discharged blood you are seeing right after your period is the blood of your last period that has not been completely discharged. There are occasions when the blood does not come out immediately. It is common and usually, it is not a very big deal. If you have had this kind of bleeding for a long time or suffer from pain or a stinky odor which is unusual, then it's better to have a consultation with a gynecologist to make sure everything is fine.

I'm having a likoria its been 4 to 5 days

Female | 23

There could be an issue with vaginal discharge. Leukorrhea is increased discharge from hormones, infections, or irritants. Signs are changes in color, smell, itchiness, or discomfort. Wear cotton underwear, keep clean, avoid scented products near your vagina. If discharge seems abnormal or doesn't stop, get checked by a gynecologist.

My hymen is still not completely broken. Once I saw few drops of blood . But still the hymen is strong there. I had intercourse not a proper one and penis didn't enter into my vagina. But the sperms fell on my vagina and we still did 3 ,4 pushes. Will I be pregnant .

Female | 23

Even if complete insertion didn't occur, pregnancy remains a possibility since sperm can still reach the egg. Immediate symptoms might not manifest, but missed periods or breast tenderness could be early indicators. Taking a pregnancy test provides confirmation. It's important to understand that an intact hymen doesn't preclude pregnancy.

I had unprotected sex 9 days before my periods.. Is there any chance I can get pregnant

Female | 25

Yes there is chances of getting pregnant. Sperm are able to stay alive in the female body for up to five days, and if you ovulate before this period, this can greatly increase the likelihood of becoming pregnant. If you have any concern talk to a gynecologist to take the test and get more detailed advice.

I want to ask about my periods

Female | 20

Menstruation is a natural process that happens when the lining of the uterus is purged every month. At the same time, though, if you have unusually heavy bleeding or cramps that make your regular activities difficult, it is advisable to see a doctor. I recommend that you see a gynecologist, who is a specialist who deals with women's reproductive health issues.

Female | 36

Irregular periods can happen sometimes. Stress, routine changes, or hormonal issues may cause delays. Pregnancy or certain health conditions could also be reasons. A home pregnancy test can help clarify things. If it's negative and your period still doesn't arrive after waiting, consulting a gynecologist would be advisable.

I'm on my 4th day of period.but my blood flow is low than normal I only have a little amount of blood in first 2day.and no cramps as usual...and I'm sick I have fever and body pain...is there any chance I'm pregnant

Female | 22

It is perfectly natural for blood flow to be inconsistent during a menstrual cycle. Sometimes it may be lighter with less cramping. It’s quite common to experience a fever and body aches while menstruating – this doesn’t necessarily mean that you are pregnant. However, if you want to make sure, take a pregnancy test after your period ends. If your symptoms are worrying you, keep yourself hydrated and get plenty of rest.

An organ pushing through a muscle's weakened area is a hernia. This can happen after surgeries, likely your wife's case. Swelling and discomfort are usual signs. It's best she sees a gynecologist soon for proper checks and treatment.

Why is my period late 2 3 months?

Female | 18

It's normal for periods to be late sometimes. Stress, weight changes, diet, and exercise can all affect your menstrual cycle. Hormonal imbalances like PCOS or thyroid issues can also cause delays. If you experience pain, bleeding issues, or acne, see a doctor. Eating well, reducing stress, and exercising regularly may help regulate your cycle. Periods don’t always follow a strict schedule, as many factors influence their timing. Be aware of what's normal for you, but seek medical attention from a gynecologist if you notice concerning symptoms.

It looks like your menstruation cycle is passing or is not regular and you are undergoing discomfort. Vaginal itching, unbearable pain, or irregular menstruation can occur due to multiple reasons including hormonal imbalance, excessive stress, and infections. It is crucial to discuss with a gynecologist who will identify the cause and treat the problem effectively so that you can be relieved of the pain.

i want o confirm that my daughter is 18 year and she has pcods problem but now a days she hasa guilty on her right breast is there any treatment you can give

Female | 18

The feeling of guilt in her right breast could be a symptom of a condition called fibrocystic breast changes. It's common and usually not harmful. Symptoms can be lumps, pain, and swelling. Among the alternatives for easing symptoms, she can consider wearing a supportive bra, cutting back on caffeine, and taking pain relievers if necessary. If the symptoms continue or increase, see a gynecologist for further assessment and treatment.

Female | 22

You should remember that paying a visit to an I-pill clinic disturbs the regularity of menstrual cycles. I urge you to visit a gynecologist who can help you decide on the correct expected menstrual date and also recommend the appropriate contraception methods.

I developed severe palpitations and breathlessness of unknown cause since all tests are normal after 3 years of taking birth control pills to regulate periods. I am considering stopping them as the doctor told me. What are expected side effects that would happen from stopping them?

Female | 32

Birth control pills are beneficial, but side effects can arise. If experiencing issues, stopping them seems wise. Your menstrual cycle might undergo adjustments - irregular bleeding or heavier flows could occur. This transition phase necessitates patience from your body. Should symptoms persist or worsen after discontinuation, consulting a gynecologist becomes crucial.
