The yellowish tinge in urine especially during pregnancy is attributed due to urochrome, also called urobilin, is the component that renders urine its color.

Doctor, I have a query. We had intercourse during the fertile window, confirmed by follicular scan showing good egg quality and ovulation, but I still got my period this week. All my reports, including LH and blood tests, are normal with no signs of PCOS. Is there something that might be going wrong?

Can beta hcg test be done before missed periods to check whether I am pregnant or not. I have been having a sharp dull but bearable pain for the last four days so I did a beta hcg test three days before my missed periods. The result of beta hcg was 0.1. I had sex on the 23rd and 24th using the interrupted method. I am unmarried and worried so I did the beta hcg test. Is there still a chance of pregnancy or ectopic pregnancy?
