I'm really worried because I haven't had my period for the last 6 months, and I can feel something hard in my belly. I don't really feel any other symptoms, but back in January, I had typhoid and jaundice. Could this be related to that? I also had sex in November, but my missed period started before then. Is it possible that I might be pregnant, or could it be something else entirely?

I'm really worried about my friend. She's been having vaginal bleeding after intercourse for the last two days, and I don't know how to help her. Do you know what could be causing this or if there's any medicine that can help stop the bleeding? It's urgent, so any advice would be great.

Bleeding should not last for so long Please consult a gynaecologist
