I'm planning my wedding and my gynecologist recommended starting on Femovan for six months, beginning on the 5th day of my cycle. My wedding will happen before I've finished all 21 tablets. Is it still going to be effective? Also, is starting on the 5th day the right approach? I really want to be sure it's all good and if it'll work without any other protection.

Starting Femovan on the 5th day of your cycle is a common practice to ensure its effectiveness. As long as you take the pills consistently every day, even if your marriage occurs before completing the full 21 tablets, Femovan should still be effective in preventing pregnancy. It is important to follow your gynecologist's instructions for the best results. Femovan is a combined oral contraceptive pill containing ethinylestradiol and gestodene.

View allI'm a bit worried because I had oral sex with my boyfriend and now I'm experiencing a brown discharge from my vagina. It's happening more in the mornings, and I've been having frequent urination throughout the day. This all started after we were together, which was 2 days before my period was supposed to start, but it still hasn't come. I did a pregnancy test today and it came back negative. The date we were intimate was February 26th. What could be causing this?
Since your pregnancy tests are negative, it is less likely to be related to pregnancy. I recommend you to consult a doctor for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. You may need a pelvic examination and some tests to determine the cause of your symptoms. In the meantime, you can try using over-the-counter antifungal medication like Clotrimazole (such as Canesten) for possible yeast infection.

I'm 8 days late for my period, which is unusual since they're usually regular. I took a home pregnancy test and it came back negative, but I'm experiencing leg pain and there's a white milky discharge. Can you help me understand what's going on with my body?
Its possible that stress, hormonal changes, or other factors like infection could be affecting your cycle, even with a negative pregnancy test. The leg pain and milky discharge might also indicate something like an early hormonal imbalance or a vaginal infection. Its best to follow up with your doctor for a more thorough evaluation if your period doesn't start soon.
