I took a Plan B pill recently, and now I'm experiencing a lot of pain on the outside of my vagina. It also feels really dry on the outside but not on the inside. Is this normal? Should I be worried or do anything to help with the discomfort?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Plan B contains a high dose of levonorgestrel, a synthetic hormone that can affect your body temporarily. This can cause side effects like vaginal dryness, discomfort, or even irritation in some cases.It's likely that the pain is temporary and related to the hormonal effects of Plan B, but if you have any concerns or if the symptoms don't improve, definitely reach out to your healthcare provider.

I'm 20 and I've been taking Obimet SR 500 once a day for my PCOS. My period came on November 13th. Then on December 2nd, I got intimate, although we didn't have sex. I missed my period in December and also skipped some doses of my Obimet SR. I took a pregnancy test on December 24th and it was negative. Later that day, I got intimate again and took an emergency contraceptive pill. I started bleeding on January 1st and it was like a full period that lasted 7 days. I've been back on Obimet SR since January 8th. I've done two more pregnancy tests since then and both were negative. I'm not experiencing any breast pain or other PMS symptoms now. What should I do? Is there a chance I'm pregnant, and if I am, what's the safest way to manage an unwanted pregnancy?
Consult your gynecologist immediately for a thorough evaluation and guidance, as your symptoms and test results are inconclusive; despite negative pregnancy tests, your missed period, bleeding patterns, and lack of PMS symptoms are concerning; your doctor may order a more sensitive pregnancy test, ultrasound, or other diagnostic tests to confirm or rule out pregnancy; if pregnant, your doctor will discuss safe and legal options, including termination, with you.

I've been diagnosed with a complex ovarian cyst measuring 8.3 cm by 4.3 cm and was told I need surgery but I really don't want to go through with it are there any medicine options that could help treat this instead
excision of the cyst is advised.
