I'm a bit worried and need some advice. I got my period on April 12th and ended up having unprotected sex on the 5th day, which was April 16th. Just to be cautious, I took a pill on April 18th, within the 72-hour window. Then on May 3rd, I started bleeding again, but it wasn't as heavy as my normal period and went on for 45 days. I had all the usual period symptoms like cramps and back pain. Now I'm not sure if that was withdrawal bleeding or if my period just came early. Todays the 20th and I still havent got my period, assuming that previous bleeding was withdrawal. Is there a chance I might be pregnant?

View allI just found out I have an ovarian cyst from an ultrasound two days ago and I'm really worried about it. Is there any way to treat it without surgery? What are my options if I want to avoid going under the knife?

In some cases, medications like birth control pills or other hormone treatments may be prescribed to prevent new cysts from forming or to manage symptoms. Home remedies like pain relief and heat therapy can also help ease symptom

I've been experiencing very painful menstrual cramps and my doctor recommended I try Meftal Spas tablets. They've been really helpful in relieving my pain for about 5 to 6 hours, and I've been taking them whenever the pain gets too intense. But now I'm noticing that my periods are getting delayed and the cramps seem to be even more painful. Could these things be side effects of the tablets?
Meftal Spas is a commonly used medication for menstrual pain, but frequent use can sometimes affect the regularity of your periods or increase pain in some cases. It's important to use it cautiously and consult your doctor if you notice changes in your cycle or increased discomfort, as they may need to adjust your treatment plan.

I'm 13 weeks pregnant and just got my NT scan results today. I'm 29 years old and the scan showed an NT measurement of 1.7mm. Is that within the normal range? Should I be concerned about it?
Nuchal translucency (NT) scan sometimes called the early morphology scan done between 11 and 13 weeks...less than 3.5mm at 13 weeks is considered normal... So nothing to worry it's within normal range
