My husband and I had unprotected sex on 30th July and took an ipill. After that, we had unprotected sex a couple more times. My period was due on 17th August, but I started feeling dizziness, so I did a home pregnancy test, which showed one dark line and one faint pink line. Does this indicate that I might be pregnant, or could it be a hormonal imbalance due to the i pill? We are not prepared for pregnancy, so I need guidance on what to do next.

A faint second pink line along with a dark control line on your home pregnancy test usually indicates a positive result, even if it is light. Emergency pills like iPill can cause hormonal changes and delay periods, but they are not 100 percent effective. Since your period is due and you are getting a faint positive, repeat a urine pregnancy test after 2 to 3 days for confirmation, or consider a serum beta hCG test for a clear result. Consult your doctor to discuss further options based on the result.

I had a lower abdomen ultrasound done recently. I am unmarried and worried about pregnancy. My last menstrual period was on 5th January. I am unsure if the sonographer properly examined my uterus. I have attached my report and ultrasound images for your review.

Hi, on the 17th day of my period I went for a follicular study. My doctor injected HCG 10000 for egg rupture on the 18th day. I assume my egg ruptured then, but we were not able to have intercourse. On the 19th day, the doctor confirmed that the egg had ruptured. Since I did not have intercourse on the 18th day when the egg ruptured, is there any chance of pregnancy?
