Had protected sex but missed period

Answered by Dr. Swapna Chekuri

If you had protected sex and have missed your period, there could be many reasons for a missed period other than pregnancy. Stress, changes in weight, illness, hormonal imbalances, and various medical conditions can all affect your menstrual cycle. Please get a test done to confirm about pregnancy.

if i got a tetanus vaccine two months back and i got a metal cut now from shaving razors should i get a vaccine, to be more precise, I got the cut on my right hand's thumb

Male | 14

You should be okay if your te­tanus shot was recent. The te­tanus bacteria enters through cuts like­ shaving nicks. Be alert for muscle stiffne­ss or trouble swallowing. Those could signal tetanus, so se­e a doctor immediately. But if you don't have­ issues, keep the­ wound clean and watch for infection signs. There­'s no need to panic with a current te­tanus vaccination.

I began taking the contraceptive pill Hana on 8th June before my period has started and wanted to know how long before I am protected

Female | 31

When you start taking the contraceptive pill, there’s something you should know: it won’t protect you right away. It takes about seven days to start working. While you’re waiting for it to kick in, make sure to use an extra form of protection such as condoms so that pregnancy doesn’t occur. Some people may get mild side effects like headaches or feeling sick when they first try this type of birth control but these usually go away with time if taken properly.

I'm 20 weeks pregnant with twins. My stomach become more hard suddenly

Female | 25

Please see your Obstetrician as soon as possible. The toughening of the stomach during pregnancy can be a symptom of Braxton Hicks contractions, but they do no harm and are normal. However, it can be a signal of early labor and preterm birth along with severe pain, pain, bleeding, and discharge.
