Can Delayed Periods Indicate Pregnancy After Taking Emergency Contraceptive Pill?

Patient's Query

So she had sex on 15th of jan which was 4th day of her periods and her partner didnt ejaculated at all and she took pills with 40hrs and got heavy bleeding after two days of taking pills and today is 19th of feb and she hasnt gotten her periods yet . What does this mean?

Gynaecology

Answered by Dr. Swapna Chekuri

If your partner did not cum and you had taken emergency contraceptive pills within 40 hours after sex during your period, the pregnancy is very unlikely to happen. Possibly the tablets should blame the bleeding you had rather than your period. You can visit the gynecologist if this area concerns you to get examined and counseled more.

My menstrual period is late. I also use combination pills for last month. I take a pregnancy test it shows negative . Why my period is late

Female | 31

When you start taking combination contraceptive pills, your body may need time to adjust. This temporary phase could delay your period. Factors like stress, illness, or changes in body weight can also affect menstrual timing. If your pregnancy test is negative, it's likely just a temporary irregularity. Keep track of your cycle and consult a gynecologist if the delay continues.

I am a sexually active 16 year female, with a period last on MAY 8th and its over 11 days late. When should I take a pregnancy test?

Female | 16

You can take a pregnancy test as soon as you miss your period. Since it's already 11 days late, it is a good time to take the test now. If you have any concerns or need further guidance, please visit a gynecologist.

I have missed my periods Last periods was on 12th March 24 I m worried For the first time I have missed this I was got physically involved From 27 March till 3rd April In between Don't know what is happening to me Please advise me

Female | 39

Not getting your period on time is concerning, but we'll find the cause. You mentioned getting intimate in late March, which could be the reason. Sometimes, this shifts your cycle. Other possible causes are stress or certain medicines. If you feel queasy or tired, doing a pregnancy test at home may help.

So lately I have been passing clot blood and it's frustrating me because I would be bleeding for 17 days when not on my period and at this point I don't think I could reach a doctor because I'm scared.

Female | 17

These symptoms can be caused by hormonal imbalances, fibroids, or other diseases. It’s important to be aware that although irregular bleeding is common, persistent irregular bleeding requires a doctor's visit. When you are prepared, I encourage you to find professional help, as health professionals can give treatment and advice that are specific to your situation. For now, sit down with your feelings and take note of any sensations, pains, and changes, as it will be useful for your meeting with a gynecologist.

Hi 16 days ago I had dark blood from my period and it lasted around 4/5 days so normal period length but it was all quite dark blood only a small amount of fresh blood. I also had no cramps and couldn’t feel my period starting which normally I can feel it’s going to start and it was 5 days early. Yesterday I had slightly dark discharge and some cramps and now I have my period actual blood and cramps but only 16 days after my last “period”

Female | 17

Your menstrual cycle goes through some changes. Dark blood can appear when your period begins. This is normal and doesn't indicate a problem. The cramps result from hormones or other causes. Monitor your periods and symptoms every month. Talk to a gynecologist if unusual bleeding or cramps continue.

Hi, so I had a medical abortion recently (less than 5 weeks pregnant and the transvaginal scan said the embryo couldn’t be visualised yet/ it’s also my first pregnancy). After I was administered 4 pills of Misoprostol vaginally at the hospital, I started bleeding 2 hours later but it was like a regular period (a little heavier than usual and some clots/tissue much later in the day). I’ve been reading stories about intense pain and cramping etc. but haven’t experienced any at all. I took a pain med on the first day expecting a lot of pain but all I felt was some pressure in my abdomen for a few hours and a heating pad helped. It’s been around 5 days since then (proper bleeding for 2-3 days and very light bleeding on the 4th day and spotting on the 5th day). Today I stopped bleeding. Is this normal?

Female | 29

It is quite common to get different experiences in a medical abortion. Some people face severe pain, but others do not. Nevertheless, bleeding and not feeling much pain seems to be not a big deal at the moment. Every person has a different response to the drugs. Please keep an eye on symptoms such as heavy bleeding, severe pain, or high fever and alert your gynecologist in case of any. In addition, keep a low-stress pace, rest well, and fulfil the post-abortion aftercare recommendations you were provided with.

Why am I seeing much white watery milky discharge

Female | 22

Experiencing a white, watery discharge can be quite common and is often linked to hormonal changes, ovulation, or even an imbalance in bacteria. This type of fluid is usually normal, especially if there aren’t accompanying symptoms like itching or a strong odor. Staying hydrated and wearing breathable fabrics can help maintain comfort. However, if you notice changes in color, consistency, or smell, or if discomfort arises, it's a good idea to consult a gynecologist. They can offer tailored advice and peace of mind.

From the beta hcg values, it appears that you are not currently pregnant. Irregular periods are often symptoms of other medical conditions. You should consult a gynecologist in order to review and diagnose. They can recommend you proper medical advice and treatment regarding your condition.

i am having an issue as I had accidentally taken one of my sugar pills and also missed a day about two weeks ago but straight after continued taking my normal pills but I got my period but it hasn't gone away and it's been about a week and a half and I’m not sure if I should be worried about this or what I should do?

Female | 16

Irregular bleeding is often seen in the case of birth control pills, particularly when a pill is missed or a sugar pill is taken by mistake. This can come about when your body adjusts to the changes. It is, however, completely normal to have it, although it can be annoying. Bleeding will more or less cease by itself if you keep taking your pills as prescribed. If it persists or is more intense, it is better to talk with your gynecologist.

16 Year old female. Has a cut or tear on the vagina at the bottom not like inside but right before the hole. it has no odor puss or a different color.. it’s only been there for a few days and there’s nothing out of the ordinary. is this something to worry about?

Female | 16

The cut or tear that you have around your vagina is, in my opinion, a small scratch of the skin. This can take place because of friction or irritation. Spotting or sometimes pain may be experienced. It's very essential to maintain the hygiene of the area. The use of warm water for the cleaning of the wound is a good option. Alternatively, a thin layer of Vaseline can be used to cover the skin as it helps the skin to heal. If that fails to be the case, or if it does, You can also consult a gynecologist.
