Safety and Usage
Taking two doses of Levonorgestrel 1.5 mg in one week is generally safe for healthy women, including those aged 25. However, it's meant for occasional use, not regular contraception. -
Effectiveness and Side Effects
- Effectiveness: Frequent use may reduce effectiveness and cause menstrual irregularities.
- Side Effects: Possible side effects include nausea, fatigue, headache, or changes in your period, which are usually temporary.
-
Consultation and Advice
- Consult a Healthcare Provider: If frequent use is needed, discuss more reliable contraceptive options with a healthcare professional.
- When to Seek Medical Advice: Consult a doctor if you experience severe abdominal pain, heavy bleeding, or if your period is over a week late.
In summary, while taking two emergency contraceptive pills in one week is not typically harmful, consider regular contraception methods for ongoing protection. For personalized advice, consult your healthcare provider.

I'm really curious about whether oral contact with the vagina is actually healthy or if it might cause any health problems. Can engaging in this activity lead to any kind of issues?
Engaging in oral sex, including vaginal stimulation, is generally safe if both partners are healthy, consenting, and practice good hygiene. However, it can increase the risk of transmitting sexually transmitted infections (STIs) if proper precautions, such as using protection, are not taken. Maintaining personal hygiene and open communication with your partner is important for overall health and well-being.

I'm really young and feeling awkward about my large breasts. I'm looking for some advice on creams or treatments to reduce their size. I came across this VLCC firming cream, but I'm hesitant to try it because I'm worried about potential side effects. Since I'm unmarried, surgery isn't really an option for me. Could you suggest anything?
For breast reduction without surgery, consider consulting a general surgeon for personalized advice; some herbal and natural remedies like saw palmetto, turmeric, or ginger may help, but their effectiveness is largely anecdotal; as for creams, VLCC's breast firming cream may help with toning, but its effectiveness for reduction is uncertain, and be cautious of potential side effects like skin irritation or allergic reactions.
