How many pads per day is normal?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Periods have heavy flow volume and less flow volume days and may usually last for 4 to 6 days. It is hard to define normalcy of number of pads per day. On total, one to seven normal sized pads or tampons per period are normal.

View allI'm really worried about something that happened with my friend. Her boyfriend fingered her, and she's freaking out about the possibility of pregnancy. They aren't sure if there might have been anything on his fingers. Can you explain if pregnancy is possible from fingering in this situation?
It is highly unlikely that pregnancy would occur from fingering, as sperm would need to be directly introduced into the vagina for fertilization to happen. However, if there is a possibility that semen was on the fingers and they were introduced into the vagina, it's still a very low risk, but I would recommend speaking to a healthcare provider for further reassurance and guidance.

Given the heavy bleeding and ineffectiveness of Pause and Sylate, consider consulting your gynecologist
