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?

My mom has stage 3c ovarian cancer and has done 3 chemo cycles but it doesn't seem to be working well. She's down to just 27kg and one doctor suggested debulking surgery. I'm really concerned how risky would surgery be at her current weight and what are her chances of pulling through

Debulking surgery at 27kg in a patient with advanced ovarian cancer presents significant risks, but also potentially offers a chance at better outcomes. While the surgery itself is risky due to the patient's weakened state, it could reduce the tumor burden and potentially improve response to subsequent chemotherapy. The decision should be made after careful consideration of all factors, including the patient's overall health, the extent of the cancer, and the potential benefits of surgery.
