I'm a bit worried and curious about when it's safe to have sex after my wife had a family planning operation on 9th August 2017. We have two daughters, and I'm just trying to make sure we're doing everything right. How long should we wait?

After a tubectomy (family planning operation), it's generally recommended to wait for 7-14 days before resuming sexual intercourse to allow the body to heal and reduce the risk of complications or infection;

I've been feeling a little uneasy and could use some advice. I had intercourse with my fianc on January 7th, and we used protection, but it leaked. To be safe, I took an i-pill about an hour later because I didn't want to risk getting pregnant. My last period started on December 31st and ended on January 4th, so we did it just a few days after my period ended. I got some bleeding on January 12th, which I think might be withdrawal bleeding. I've been drinking ajwain with kala namak and warm water every night to try and induce my period. Now it's February 2nd, and I'm noticing my breasts feel heavy, there's slight pain in my legs, and I've seen some bleeding when I pee, but the bleeding on the pad is really light compared to my usual periods. I took a pregnancy test yesterday, and it was negative, but I'm worried about this light bleeding. Why is it so different from my usual periods?

It sounds like you're experiencing irregular bleeding, which could be due to hormonal changes after taking the I-pill or stress. The negative pregnancy test is reassuring, but it's important to monitor your symptoms. If the bleeding persists or worsens, or if you're concerned, it's best to consult your doctor for further evaluation.

I've been using Primolut N to push back my period a bit, but I'm having this light blood-like discharge. My periods aren't normal right now. Should I keep taking it? My doc told me to take two pills a day but seemed unsure since I started them a bit late. Can anyone give me a clear idea of what I should do next, maybe with a solution?

I've been taking Meprate, and I'm concerned about some side effects. Last month, I had really bad pain on the lower right side of my stomach, but it went away after my period was over. Could this be something serious or affect my uterus in some way? I'm a bit worried.

no it will not affect your uterus
