I'm really confused and worried after my sister took a pregnancy test on the doctor's advice because she missed her period. The test showed a very faint pink line on the control line and a prominent pink line on the test line. Does this mean the test is positive or negative? Also, she took the i-pill within 24 hours of having unprotected contact. Can you help me understand what this all means?

I'm really curious about the best methods for birth control. Are birth control pills actually safe for women? And if they are, which pill is considered the best with the least side effects? I've heard a lot of conflicting information and would love some clarity on this.

I'm really concerned because I found out that there's a small, clear cyst on my cervix, and it's 9.66cm in length. I'm worried if this is a Nabothian cyst and if its something I should seriously consider surgery for. What should I do, or what kind of treatments are there?

Gynaecologist opinion is advised to the patient.
