You may be pregnant if your period is late for several days. A positive Prega News test means you could be expecting a baby. Usual early signs are feeling sick, tired, and sore breasts. It is important to see a gynecologist for care and advice to confirm your pregnancy.

Thank you Doctor , I visited as per your advice . Now it's diagnosed that I have low lying placenta( placenta previa)reaching the os- CRL approx 5.25cm. Is this good or bad ? ( my gynaecologist didn't explain me that well, I tried searching in youtube/ google but almost all were unsatisfactory ). ( by the way I'm 39 years, this is my third pregnancy ,previous deliveries were cesarean. I got pregnant this time with iud due to that I was slightly bleeding for 18 days with mild abdominal pain with small blood clot ,luckily the iud was removed)

Having a placenta positioned low, close to the cervix, with a CRL of 5.25cm, presents potential risks like bleeding. Considering your third pregnancy and previous cesarean deliveries, close monitoring by your gynecologist is crucial. Avoid strenuous activities or heavy lifting. In severe cases, bed rest may be recommended by your doctor.

Not getting pregnant after trying for a while is tough. Your irregular periods make pinpointing ovulation tricky - but that's key for conception. Causes could be hormone imbalances, or medical issues. Chart your cycle using ovulation tests or apps, talk to your gynecologist about what's behind the irregularity, and explore options to address it.

Bleeding may not begin promptly after taking abortion pills. For some females, there could be a delay in bleeding starting. This is sometimes normal, so don't get anxious yet. The body requires time to respond to the medicine. Ensure she rests and takes care of herself properly. Contact a gynecologist for guidance if bleeding hasn't commenced after 24 hours.

Implantation bleeding occurs when a fertilized egg adheres to your uterine lining. It doesn't signify pregnancy complications usually. Light spotting or bleeding can happen. If concerned or experiencing other symptoms, consulting a gynecologist is advisable for reassurance.

Your period may have delayed this month, which happens at times. Various factors like stress, weight changes, or hormonal imbalances could cause the delay. Since your previous cycle ended in May, missing it now seems reasonable. Don't worry excessively, however, if it prolongs, consulting a gynecologist may help identify any underlying issues.
