I had unprotected sex on the 9th day after my period ended. My cycle is usually between 25 to 28 days. Should I consider taking an emergency contraceptive pill like the I pill? I'm a bit worried.

Timing: Since you had unprotected sex on the 9th day after your period and your cycle is 25-28 days, this may be near your fertile window.
-
Action: Consider taking the I pill (Levonorgestrel 1.5 mg) as soon as possible, ideally within 72 hours of the unprotected encounter.
-
Effectiveness: The pill is most effective when taken promptly and can help delay ovulation.
-
Safety: Levonorgestrel is generally safe for most women.
-
Next Steps: If beyond 72 hours, consult a healthcare provider for alternatives like the copper IUD.
Note: Emergency contraception is a backup, not a regular birth control method. Discuss ongoing contraceptive options with your healthcare provider.

I'm 7 weeks and 2 days pregnant and I just found out that the yolk sac is measuring 7.8 mm in diameter. I'm a bit worried about what this means for my pregnancy. Is this something I should be concerned about, and is there a chance the yolk sac size can return to normal?
A yolk sac diameter of 7-8 mm at 7 weeks and 2 days of pregnancy is slightly larger than expected, as the normal diameter is usually around 3-5 mm by the sixth week. This could potentially indicate a problem with the pregnancy, such as an early sign of miscarriage. However, it's essential to note that a single ultrasound measurement is not conclusive, and your healthcare provider may recommend a follow-up ultrasound to reassess the yolk sac size and check for any other signs of a healthy pregnancy. consult gynaecologist
