I had unprotected sexual intercourse on 15th October and consumed an i-pill on 16th itself within 24 hours. After 10 days, that is on 26th, I experienced bleeding which I believe was my period because it lasted for 5 days with severe cramps on the first two days. Now this month, for a few days I am feeling inflammation and uneasiness in my stomach with loss of appetite and sometimes thigh and leg pain. For a few days a strand of blood with white discharge is also noticed. I have tested for pregnancy during this time span and all tests came negative. My period has not arrived yet. Am I pregnant?

Since you took the iPill within 24 hours and had a 5 day period with cramps, pregnancy is unlikely, especially with negative tests. The iPill can delay your next period and cause mild cramping, discharge, or appetite changes. If your period is still delayed, repeat a urine pregnancy test for reassurance. If pain or discharge increases, see your doctor.

When is the ideal time to do a serum Beta HCG test? My period is 5 days late, should I get it done now?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I had a lower abdomen ultrasound done recently. I am unmarried and worried about pregnancy. My last menstrual period was on 5th January. I am unsure if the sonographer properly examined my uterus. I have attached my report and ultrasound images for your review.

I have used Sevista 60 mg from 26th June till 11th August. I am not having periods though my pregnancy test report is negative. How long should I wait for my periods to come? If I want to have sex, will I start Overal L again in this situation? Will Overal L give me protection against pregnancy? Will it take months or days for my periods to normalize since I stopped Sevista on 11th August? In the absence of periods, if I start Ovral L, will it prevent pregnancy?
