I'm not sexually active, and when I am, it's like once every three months or so. I don't smoke, but I do have a beer every now and then. I'm wondering if there's a way to change this or if there's something I should be doing differently?

It's important to address any underlying physical or emotional factors that may be affecting your sexual health. Low frequency of sexual activity can be influenced by stress, lifestyle, or relationship dynamics. If you're concerned, consider speaking with a healthcare professional to explore potential causes and solutions, including lifestyle changes, managing stress, or improving communication with a partner.

I'm a bit worried about a recent situation and need some advice. My wife and I had sex on the night of May 19th. Her menstrual cycle is about 26 days long, and her last period started on May 11th. We got concerned because we thought it might have been her fertile window, so she took an emergency contraceptive pill the next morning on May 20th. What are the chances she could still get pregnant given the timing and everything?

I'm a little worried and curious if I might get pregnant. The doctor prescribed Siphene for 5 days, which I've already taken. We had a relationship after that. Do you think there's a chance I could be pregnant?
Taking Siphene (Clomiphene) for 5 days can help stimulate ovulation, increasing the chances of pregnancy if you have had intercourse during your fertile window. However, pregnancy is not guaranteed, as it depends on various factors like egg quality, sperm health, and timing. Keep monitoring your cycle and consult your doctor for further guidance.
