You're most fertile at the time of ovulation (when an egg is released from your ovaries), which usually occurs 12 to 14 days before your next period starts. This is the time of the month when you're most likely to get pregnant. It's unlikely that you'll get pregnant just after your period, although it can happen.

I'm really worried and need some advice. I'm 20 years old and usually my period starts between the 20th and 25th of each month. This time, I had unprotected sex on the 20th of March and took an Unwanted 72 pill on the 21st, but my period still hasn't started, and it's already April 8th. I'm really stressed out about the possibility of being pregnant because I don't think I can handle a pregnancy right now, and I definitely can't tell my parents. Should I take a pregnancy test? And if it turns out I'm pregnant, what options would be available to me?

I'm looking at my urine report and wondering if there's any sign of an infection. I'm currently 36 weeks pregnant and a bit concerned. Is there a risk to my baby if there is an infection?

#NAME?

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

I'm dealing with some pretty annoying burning and itching down there and it's been bothering me a lot. I think it might be because I had an allergic reaction to some vaginal creams I used before. I've stopped using all those creams, gels, and even antibiotics now, so I'm just wondering, is Vwash safe and effective for cleaning and helping with this kind of irritation? I'm really looking for something that can help soothe the discomfort.

kk you can stop & consult doctor.
