My period has been missing for the past 1 month and I have been sick for the past 2 days. I just got my blood report, and everything is normal except my ESR, which is 100 mm/h. Is this a sign of pregnancy?

ESR is not used to detect pregnancy. A missed period needs confirmation via urine or blood pregnancy test.
Dr. Bhanu Suggests...
Take a UPT Test (Urine Pregnancy) Test or Take a Beta HCG Test Test

View allI took an I pill twice at the end of December with a gap of 5 days. After that, I had withdrawal bleeding in the first week of January, which lasted only 5 days like normal periods. In the last week of February, I had periods again, but they were very light, not like normal periods. Now it has been 10 days and I am still having very light bleeding. Is it normal to have this type of irregular period? I did a pregnancy test and it was negative.

Hi, last month on the last day of my period, I had sex, and the condom broke, so he cum inside me. I took an IPill within 12 hours, but after a week, some brown bleeding occurred which continued for four days. My menstrual cycle is 28 days. I am now three days late for my period and did a home pregnancy test, which was negative. Should I be worried?

Hi, I am 22 years old and unmarried. I had unprotected anal sex once and took Unwanted 72. That month, I had spotting first and then got my period. The next month, I had protected intercourse using a condom, and the next day I got my period. Now, I have not gotten my period. I had very light dark brown spotting. Is there any risk of pregnancy? I took a pregnancy test 15 days ago, and it was negative.
