I'm really concerned and need some advice. I had my last period on April 14th, and now it's May 21st and a pregnancy test came back positive. Are there any ways to terminate this pregnancy at 5 weeks without taking any pills?

I'm really worried because I've been having trouble with my periods this month. They're delayed by 12 days, which hasn't happened to me in over four years. My cycle's been super regular for the last two years, almost like clockwork. Four years ago, I had PCOD and took medication for it, and then three years ago, I had issues with my endometrium thickening, but medication helped with that. These last couple of years have been normal with regular exercise and good eating habits. But this past month, I've been really stressed and haven't exercised properly, which messed with my appetite too. Now I'm just spotting and having some white discharge, but then nothing else. It keeps repeating like that, with severe body pain and mood swings, plus bloating, but still no periods. What can I do to fix this?

While the delay in your period is likely linked to stress and lifestyle changes, given your history of PCOD and endometrial issues, its best to consult with a gynecologist for a thorough evaluation. In the meantime, focusing on stress reduction, proper nutrition, and light physical activity may help improve your symptoms.

I'm really curious about thisis there a specific type of vaginal discharge that should prompt me to see a gynecologist? I've heard from some people that it's normal to have discharge, but I just want to be sure.

Tingling in hands and feet*: Could indicate nerve damage or neuropathy. - *Weakness*: May be related to various factors, including nutritional deficiencies, nerve damage, or underlying medical conditions. - *Frequent urination (3-4 times)*: Could be a sign of urinary tract issues, diabetes, or other medical conditions. To better understand your symptoms, I recommend: 1. *Consult a doctor*: Schedule an appointment with your primary care physician or a specialist (e.g., neurologist or urologist) to discuss your symptoms. 2. *Provide detailed medical history*: Share your medical history, including any pre-existing conditions, medications, and supplements. 3. *Undergo diagnostic tests*: Your doctor may recommend tests, such as blood work, urinalysis, nerve conduction studies, or imaging tests, to help determine the underlying cause of your symptoms.
