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.

View allI'm really worried because it feels like there's a water ball in my stomach. I don't know what the exact medical term is for it. Should I be seeing a gynecologist or a gastroenterologist to get this checked out?
The presence of a "water ball" in the stomach could refer to fluid accumulation, possibly indicating a cyst, ascites, or another condition. It's best to consult a **gastroenterologist** first, as they specialize in digestive system issues, including the stomach. If it's related to gynecological causes, the gastroenterologist may refer you to a gynecologist for further evaluation.

Hey, I'm wondering if it's safe for me to take Orofer XT tonic for women. I've got low ferritin levels, but my hemoglobin is at 12. I came across a review that mentioned it could cause prolonged periods, and that kind of freaked me out. I don't have any symptoms at the moment. Can you help me figure out if it's okay for me to take it?
To prevent Rh incompatibility issues, administer Anti-D Immunoglobulin (Anti-D Ig) to the Rh-negative (O-) mother: - 1st dose: 300 mcg at 28-30 weeks of gestation - 2nd dose: 300 mcg within 72 hours of delivery (if baby is confirmed Rh-positive) This treatment helps prevent the mother's immune system from reacting to the baby's Rh-positive blood cells.

I'm a bit worried because I got my last period on July 23rd, but I still haven't gotten it again. I took a urine test, but it came back negative. I've started taking Cyclenorm E and P, 6 tablets per day for the past 2 days. How long does it usually take for periods to start after this?
your period may occur within 3-7 days. This can vary depending on your individual response to the medication. However, if your periods do not start within this time frame or if you experience any side effects, it is important to consult with your doctor.
