Missed Period: Next Steps
Missing your period can cause concern, understandably. Stress impacts the body, shifting hormone levels. Weight fluctuations, too, alter cycles. Other symptoms like stress spikes, eating routine disruptions, or weight changes accompany late periods occasionally. Stay calm, and nourish yourself properly. If irregularity persists, consult a gynecologist.

Can I Take Home Pregnancy Test for Delayed Periods?
A missed period can indicate pregnancy. If your partner expected her period on January 22 yet it did not arrive, take a home pregnancy test. Signs of pregnancy include irregular periods, feeling queasy, exhaustion, and sensitive breasts. Should the test be positive, consult a gynecologist. They will verify the results and advise on further action.

Why Do I Have White Discharge and Pain?
You may have a yeast infection, which often causes itching, stinging, and a white discharge. This is usually due to an overgrowth of Candida fungus. Over-the-counter antifungal creams or tablets can treat it effectively. To prevent further issues, wear loose cotton underwear and keep the area dry and clean.

Negative Pregnancy Tests but 12 Days Late: Could I Be Pregnant?
Missing a period is possible. It happens if the pregnancy hormone is low. Being late for 12 days could mean you're pregnant. Stress, weight changes, and hormone problems could also cause this. If you think you might be pregnant, wait. Take another test later. If still unsure, get a blood test. Blood tests are more accurate than home tests.

After an abortion, it's essential to give your body time to recover, allowing your uterus to heal properly. It's recommended to wait at least one to three months before trying to conceive again to reduce the risk of complications. Prioritizing your health is crucial before planning your next pregnancy.

Can I use an alternative to ipill after taking it previously?
Another possible alternative is a regular type of birth control. Birth control pills, condoms, or an IUD (intrauterine device) can all be used to avoid pregnancy. The correct use of these methods is safe and effective. You can talk to a gynecologist who can give you recommendations of the best option for you according to your health and lifestyle.
