I'm 20 and my periods have always been regular, but this month it's already 7 days late, which is unusual for me. I've never had sex, though my boyfriend and I are sexually active without intercourse. I'm trying to figure out if this could be a hormonal imbalance or something else. Can you help me understand what's going on and what I might do about it?

View allI'm about 6 weeks and 2 days pregnant and I've been feeling some sharp pain in my abdomen whenever I lie down and sneeze or cough. There's also this sudden pain in my pelvic area if I stand up too quickly. On top of that, ever since I conceived, I've noticed some skin allergies popping up. I had an abortion about a year ago using pills, and I'm really wondering if what I'm going through is normal or if there's something I should be concerned about. Also, is it possible to use the pills for an abortion again this time around? We just don't feel ready for a baby right now.

I'm feeling something moving around in my stomach for the past two months. I got my periods, but the sensation is still there. Could this be an ectopic pregnancy?
stomach can be unsettling. Given your symptoms and regular periods, an ectopic pregnancy is unlikely. However, it's essential to consult a doctor to rule out any potential issues. _Possible Causes_ 1. _Gas and bloating_: Trapped gas, constipation, or food intolerance can cause discomfort and movement sensations. 2. _Gastrointestinal issues_: Conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), or gastroparesis can cause stomach discomfort. 3. _Hormonal changes_: Fluctuations in estrogen and progesterone levels during your menstrual cycle can cause stomach discomfort. 4. _Other medical conditions_: Certain conditions, such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), stomach ulcers, or pancreatic disorders, can cause similar symptoms. _Next Steps_ 1. _Consult your gynecologist or primary care physician_: Discuss your symptoms and medical history to determine the best course of action. 2. _Get a physical examination_: A thorough examination can help identify potential causes. 3. _Diagnostic tests_: Your doctor may recommend tests, such as: - Ultrasound - Endoscopy - Blood tests - Stool tests

OR my hemoglobin is 9.1 and i have fibroid surgery scheduled in a week is that level safe? how can i boost it quickly? OR will a hemoglobin of 9.1 cause issues for my upcoming fibroid surgery? need tips to raise it fast
A hemoglobin level of 9.1 might be too low for a planned fibroid surgery next week. It's generally considered safe to have a hemoglobin level of at least 10 g/dL before surgery to minimize complications related to blood loss, according to some medical sources. Raising hemoglobin levels quickly can be done by incorporating iron-rich foods into your diet, potentially taking iron supplements (with doctor's approval), and ensuring adequate vitamin B12 and folate intake, according to some healthcare websites.
