My wife is facing some breathing issues since last one month. She is not able to complete her breath or feels short of breath and sometimes she has excessive yawning but cannot complete her yawn. In between for one week she was fine but again the same problem started. She also missed her period last month. Six months back she had a medical abortion. Today she had a blood test but her blood sample seemed to be a little dark in colour instead of bright red. We are waiting for the blood report. Kindly advise what could be the reason for this?

Symptoms could suggest hormonal imbalance, early pregnancy, or anxiety related issues. Check for anemia, thyroid, or cardiac causes. Wait for test reports.

Hi, I have missed my period for 6 days. When I checked with an HPT, it was positive, and the test line is much darker than the control line. I am having mild pain and a sensation on one side of my abdomen. Is this normal? The pain is very mild, but I am worried if this could be a serious issue?

I had protected sex with my partner on 12th June and got my periods on 21st June, which was very light compared to usual and lasted for three days. I took a pregnancy test after a week, which was negative. I took another test after four days, which was also negative. Now in July my period was due on 21st July but I am nine days late. Is there any chance of pregnancy?

I took Regesterone 5 mg twice daily for 13 days to postpone my periods. It has been 10 days since I stopped the medicine, but I have not gotten my period yet. I only had a little spotting on the 5th day. My urine pregnancy test is negative. What should I do?
