I'm a 21-year-old female and had both unprotected and protected sex with my boyfriend on the last day of my ovulation window. I took an emergency contraceptive pill the next morning. It's been two weeks now and I haven't experienced any withdrawal bleeding, plus I've missed my period. There was no semen contact. Is there still a possibility of being pregnant, or could it just be that the pill is delaying my period?

It is possible that the delay in your period is due to the emergency contraceptive pill you took. However, to rule out pregnancy, you can take a pregnancy test. If you are concerned about a possible pregnancy, you can consider taking a pregnancy test for confirmation.

I've been having trouble enjoying sex and reaching orgasm. It's becoming a bit frustrating. What can I do to make things more exciting and actually have a good orgasm with my partner?

Its important to communicate openly with your partner about your needs and desires. Exploring different forms of intimacy, such as foreplay or trying new positions, can help increase pleasure. If this persists, consulting a healthcare provider or therapist could be helpful to address any underlying factors.

I've missed my period and found out I'm 5 weeks pregnant, even though we used protection. I'm not in a position to raise a baby right now. A friend with an MBBS degree advised me to confirm the pregnancy with a scan and then take mifepristone orally, followed by 4 misoprostol tablets vaginally after 24 hours. But I haven't experienced any bleeding yet. After another 24 hours, I took 2 more misoprostol vaginally and 2 orally. Still, there's no bleeding, just some tissue passing and a few drops of a dirty white liquid. Can you help me understand what's happening?

Sounds like you are experiencing a medical abortion using medication. It is important to follow the correct dosage and administration guidelines for these medications. In your case, since there has been limited bleeding and only some tissue passing, it is advisable to seek medical attention promptly to ensure the completion of the abortion process and to address any potential complications.

I've been on Deviry for 5 days, and it's now the 10th day since I finished taking it, but I still haven't gotten my period. Normally, I'd have my period by the 7th day after finishing Deviry. Is there any reason why it might be delayed this time?

The delayed periods could be due to various reasons such as hormonal imbalances, stress, thyroid issues, or underlying medical conditions. I would recommend consulting with your doctor to evaluate the cause of the delayed periods.
