Which Triphasil tablet delays period?
To prevent your period from starting, you should take the blue triphasil tablet from the pack. By taking this tablet, your body is prevented from releasing the egg, which can be the reason behind the delay of your period. The scenario becomes bright when you have a special event or a trip planned, and you don't want your period to come. Triphasil is safe to use for this purpose, but you should always follow the instructions and take the pills every day at the same time.

Can I Still Increase Height After 20?
It is quite normal to stop growing in height after your teenage years. Most people have usually reached full growth by the time they are twenty years old. Some rare cases may continue to produce growth hormones and grow taller even as adults. Still, this happens very infrequently. If you are worried about being too short, talk to a doctor who can help you understand better what is going on.

Can she take a drug to flush out sperm?
It's understandable to be concerned after unprotected intercourse. No medication exists to directly eliminate sperm after fertilization has occurred. The potential risks involve pregnancy or sexually transmitted infections. It's wise for your partner to consider emergency contraception, which is effective if taken within a few days post-intercourse, and consulting a sexologist for appropriate guidance is essential. They can provide information about contraceptive options and STI testing.

Why is my hair falling, scalp oily, and slow growth?
Experiencing excessive hair loss, along with an oily scalp and slow growth, often indicates an imbalance in oil production and possible underlying issues. Common causes include hormonal changes, stress, or inadequate nutrition. To support healthier hair, consider adopting a balanced diet rich in vitamins, using a gentle shampoo to manage oiliness, and practicing regular scalp massages to enhance blood circulation. Staying hydrated is also vital. If these changes don't help after a few weeks, please consult a dermatologist to explore further evaluation and targeted treatments.

Why is my urine red after sex and beetroot juice?
Red urine can sometimes be due to consuming beetroot, which contains pigment that can change urine color. However, it’s important to consider other potential causes, especially if this change persists. Blood in urine, called hematuria, can occur for various reasons, including infections or injury. To ensure your health and peace of mind, I recommend drinking plenty of water and observing any additional symptoms you might experience. If the unusual color continues or if you have pain or discomfort, please consult a gastroenterologist for a thorough evaluation.
