Could spotting be due to missed pill or pregnancy?

Patient's Query

I’ve been spotting for the last couple of days. It’s light pink. I am sexually active but am on the pill and use condoms. The other day I missed a pill. Is the spotting caused by hormones or pregnancy

Answered by Dr. Swapna Chekuri

The spot you see­ could be from your body changes when you miss a pill. Stre­ss, bugs, or weight shifts can also make spots. If you worry, it is best to talk to your doctor. Re­member, spots can happen, but it is always good to ge­t help. you can visit a gynecologist to get help.

Hello ..I am trying to conceive since June 2023 ...I have PCOD I have started taking metformin and clomiphene from Jan 2024... Still not able to conceive My height is 5'1 and weight 60 kg Please help me out

Female | 30

It is difficult to become pregnant with PCOD. This leads to irregular periods and issues with ovulation, as well as increased levels of male hormones. Metformin or clomiphene may be used for regulating the menstrual cycle and promoting ovulation. Ensure you take them according to your doctor’s instructions. Fertility in women with PCOD can also be enhanced by losing weight; therefore, it is important to stay healthy.

pain in legs muscles specifically sbeofre periods time increase in pain

Female | 41

It seems you may have le­g muscle pain before your pe­riod. This is common for some people. The­ pain could be from hormone changes in your body be­fore your period starts. To help e­ase the pain, try gentle­ stretches, use a warm cloth on sore­ spots, and drink lots of water. If the pain gets worse­, be sure to tell me­ at your next visit.

I took emergency contraception on April 13th and I got my normal period on April 26th. This month my period is late. I’m not sure whether this could be due to stress I’ve been worried about my cortisol levels and have been experiencing some associated symptoms like fatigue and nausea but I’m also worried that I could be pregnant

Female | 18

If your period is late, it’s okay to worry. Stress can throw off your cycle, causing it to be late or even completely miss it. Feeling tired or throwing up could also be symptoms of stress. If you took the morning-after pill and then got your period, you probably aren’t pregnant. It is better to wait a little longer and see if it comes. If your period still hasn’t shown up, take a test just to be sure.

Is surgery required for a hip labral tear before pregnancy?

Female | 39

Pre-existing hip conditions may be impacted by the changes in weight distribution and joint laxity that occur during pregnancy. Try physical therapy and pain management first.

Do I need to take any contraceptive pill if I had unprotected sex on the 2nd day of my period

Female | 21

Having sex without protection on the second day of your period usually means there is a decreased chance of becoming pregnant. During this time, the egg is less likely to be ready for fertilization. However, it is not impossible to get pregnant so if you want to be extra safe, you might want to take emergency contraception within 72 hours just in case.
