I'm a bit worried. I had protected sex yesterday and just to be extra sure, I took a pregnancy test today which came back negative. But then, I got my period later, though it was a little late. Do I need to take another pregnancy test, or should I be concerned about getting pregnant? I really don't want to be pregnant right now. Can you help me figure this out?

It's reassuring that the pregnancy test came back negative, especially since you got your period, even if it was a bit late. Delayed periods can sometimes happen due to stress, hormonal changes, or other factors. Since you had protected sex and the test is negative, there's no need to worry about pregnancy at this point, but if you're still concerned, you can repeat the test or consult with your doctor for further peace of mind.

My USG report shows a bulky anteverted uterus with a thick midline endometrium of 10.1mm and well-apposed. The length is 8.71cm and width 4.70cm. I also have PCOD. I'm really worried does this mean I'll struggle to have a baby or need surgery? I'm only 21 and scared about what this means for my fertility.

I'm worried because I was 3 weeks pregnant and took the abortion pills prescribed by my gynecologist, but I've been told my womb wasn't cleaned out properly. Can you tell me how much it might cost to get my womb cleaned up?

Depends on various factors such as the healthcare facility, location, and specific procedures required. The cost can range from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars. You may need to undergo a procedure called a dilation and curettage (D&C) to remove any remaining tissue from the uterus. Your doctor may prescribe medications such as Misoprostol to help with the process. It is important to follow up with your gynecologist for further evaluation and treatment.

I had sex on Wednesday and then took Postinor 2 on Friday, but I had sex again on Sunday at 4 am. Do I need to take another Postinor? I'm kinda worried about what I should do next.

It is recommended to take another dose of Postinor 2 within 72 hours (3 days) after unprotected intercourse. So in your case, since you had sex on Sunday at 4:00 am, you can take another dose of Postinor 2 as soon as possible to further reduce the risk of pregnancy. Remember to follow the recommended dosage instructions provided with the medication.
