I've noticed a painful lump near my clitoris, just above it. It's itchy and hurts when I touch it. Could this be something serious? Would I need surgery or just antibiotics to treat it?

I recently took Primolut N 5 mg to delay my period, and I had three tablets over three days. It's been two days since I stopped taking them, but my period hasn't started yet. I'm also experiencing headaches, a cough, weakness, and even some paleness. What should I do?

I'm really worried because after having sex with my girlfriend, I gave her Unwanted 72. An hour later, she started having a headache. She felt better the next day, but then in the afternoon, her head began hurting again, this time not as bad. However, by nighttime, the pain got really intense. Could this be a side effect of the pill? What should I do to help her feel better?

Your girlfriend may be experiencing a side effect of Unwanted 72 emergency contraceptive pill. Headache is a common side effect of this medication. To help alleviate the headache, she can take a pain reliever such as Paracetamol (e.g. Tylenol) 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain relief. It is important to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If the headache persists or becomes severe, it would be advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
