I'm taking primolut N to delay my periods because of a work emergency. My period was originally supposed to start around the 23rd or 24th of September. Today is the 22nd, and I'm on my second day with primolut N, but I'm noticing a light white-pinkish discharge. Is this normal? Should I keep taking primolut N? I really can't afford to get my period right now because it's usually very heavy.

It's normal to experience some spotting or discharge while taking this medication, especially in the initial days, as it can affect the lining of your uterus.If the discharge becomes heavier, or you experience any unusual symptoms like severe abdominal pain or heavy bleeding then consult the doctor

I'm a bit worried because my period that started on April 5th and ended on the 11th seemed normal, but then after starting some heavy workouts at the gym on April 14th, I noticed some menstrual spotting with black clots beginning on April 24th. Is it common for exercise to cause this, or should I be concerned about something else?

It is not uncommon for women to experience spotting or changes in their menstrual cycle when they start a new exercise routine, especially if it is intense or involves heavy workouts. The black color clots may be due to the shedding of old blood from the uterus. This is usually not a cause for concern and can be a result of the physical stress placed on the body during exercise. However, if the spotting persists or is accompanied by severe pain or other concerning symptoms, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare provider.

I'm just wondering if it's safe to go for a normal delivery with my amniotic fluid index measuring between 9 and 10 cm. I'm currently 36 weeks and 2 days pregnant. Should I be concerned, or is it generally okay at this stage?

your AFI of 9-10 cm is in the normal range and should not pose a concern for your delivery. Normal delivery can proceed, but your doctor will consider other factors during labor and delivery. Always follow your doctor's advice and keep attending your prenatal appointments to monitor both your health and the baby's well-being.
