Female | 26
Period changes are quite normal. You might have heavier bleeding than usual or see blood clots. There could even be light bleeding or spotting that lasts for up to a week or more. In addition, backaches and stomach cramps will also be experienced during this time. To alleviate the pain, your friend can use a heating pad, take a warm bath, rest, and drink warm beverages such as tea. However, in case the pain becomes severe or if she gets concerned about anything else related to it, she should talk to her gynecologist for further assistance.

Hello, I’m a 17 year old female and I am currently taking the pill and anti depressants! I have had a period 2 weeks ago but I am experiancing tiredness, feeling sick , breakouts on my skin and a metal taste in my mouth! I have had intercourse recently. What would you say this could be
Female | 17
You might be having some side effects from your drugs or hormonal changes. The tiredness, nausea, breakouts, and metallic taste could mean different things. One possibility is that the pill is causing these symptoms, especially if you are new to taking it. Your feelings can also be influenced by the hormones in birth control or antidepressants. There is also a chance that you might be pregnant if you have had sex recently. Talk about this with a gynecologist so they can give you advice tailored specifically for you based on what’s going on with your body.

Hello, I am Rasima and I am 19 years old. Today my periods came in the morning and I started having a lot of pain. I am feeling dizzy and vomit also came everything was fine till afternoon after that my periods flow gets slow and the colour of my blood is chocolaty brown type and from night till now my periods stop no blood in one i want to know about this plzz reply. Me as soon as possible
Female | 19
You might have dysmenorrhea, also known as painful periods. The pain could be causing the dizziness and vomiting. The blood might have turned brown because it is older and took longer to come out. Periods can sometimes stop suddenly, which is okay. Rest, drink water, and use a hot water bottle on your tummy. If it doesn’t get better soon, talk to a gynecologist.

How to due with contractions
Female | 18
Contractions during labor are one of the causes of pregnant women experiencing pain, irritability, and discomfort. As the situation unfolds, you must remain calm and clear-minded. I suggest you seek the help of an obstetrician/gynecologist who can guide and support you once you are in the labor room.

मेरी मम्मी 45 साल की है और वह अभी अपने पेरीमेनोपॉज पीरियड में है पिछले कुछ महीनो से उनके प्राइवेट एरिया पर जलन , फोड़े और पानी निकालने की समस्या हो रही है। कुछ वक्त पहले मम्मी ने अपने प्राइवेट एरिया पर एप्पल सीडर विनेगर का युज किया था उसके बाद फुंसी चली गई थी लेकिन अब दोबारा इस एरिया पर फुंसी हो गई है

The feeling of burning, the appearance of bumps, and the discharge may all point to a yeast infection or skin irritation induced by apple cider vinegar usage. She should stay away from strong substances and put on loose cotton garments. Also, drinking lots of water and eating yogurt can help restore the natural balance. If they don’t go away, she needs to see a who gynecologist will be able to provide her with appropriate care.

I recommend that you contact your gynecologist or obstetrician right away. This could be a sign of infection that left untreated will harm both you and the baby. Your doctor will give a diagnosis and treatment options for that condition.

Female | 23
It's unlikely that you're pregnant since there was no intercourse and your previous period was normal. However, delayed periods can be caused by various factors like stress, hormonal imbalances, or lifestyle changes. Visiting a gynecologist for a proper evaluation and guidance regarding your menstrual health. They can assess your situation and provide appropriate advice and care.

How long does it take to get pregnant after sex
Female | 19
Sperm usually travel from the vagina to the fallopian tubes within 6 and 10 hours after having intercourse. Fertilization happens in these tubes. If there is an egg in the fallopian tube, something which may happen within minutes of the sperm's arrival, fertilization can occur. A visit to the gynecologist should not be avoided in case of any fertility issues.

if you take plan b after you ovulated and nine days before expected period, can the plan b still delay your period
Female | 17
If Plan B was used after ovulation, it could influence your period. Plan B's function is to postpone ovulation, which may affect timing. Therefore, it's possible for period delays after taking it. Irregular bleeding and cycle fluctuations are potential symptoms.

Breast discharge as a result of abortion and too much postinor,dry vaginal with infection
Female | 24
Seems like a few things could be related. Hormonal changes might cause breast discharge after an abortion has occurred sometimes. In addition, vaginal dryness may result from taking too much postinor which can also bring about an infection if unchecked. Your case requires specific medical attention so visit a gynecologist who will offer proper treatment and advice.

Hi, so my period is 5 days late and I've been having cramps since last week and usually when I have period cramps early it means that it's coming on but it has been a week. Sometimes my period is usually a little late but under the circumstances is this something I should be concerned about?
Female | 19
It's not uncommon for periods to be a little late or for cramps to start early, but if it's been a week and your period still hasn't come, it's worth checking in with a gynecologist just to be sure everything's okay. They can give you the best advice based on your specific situation.

The normal cycle sometimes is longer or shorter than usual. But if your cycle goes on longer than 10 days or if you have severe bleeding, you should see a doctor. You should see your gynecologist for a proper diagnosis and treatment of your condition.

for a whole week straight, my labia has been itchy. i have also been having white sticky discharge and sometimes it could be a faint yellow. there is no odor and no pain, just itchiness. today, i felt a bump like feeling on my labia and i’m guessing it’s a cyst.
Female | 17
Itching and discharge could mean a yeast infection. A common issue, causing irksome itchiness, thick yellowish gunk, and sometimes bump too. Over-the-counter antifungal creams can provide relief. Keeping clean and dry down there also helps. Drink lots of water, and wear breathable cotton undies.

Vagina labia itching and stick out
Female | 19
Irritation might be why you feel itchy "down there." Your underwear's fabric or detergent may bother you. Infections like yeast could also stick out the labia. Cotton undies help air flow better. Use gentle, unscented soap on private parts. If itching persists, ask a doctor. They can check for infection or other causes. A fragrance-free cream eases irritated skin sometimes. But for any big changes, visit a gynecologist.
