Its common to experience vaginal bleeding after taking the i-pill, as it can affect your hormonal balance. This bleeding is usually a side effect and should stop within a few days. However, if it persists or you have concerns, its best to consult your doctor for further guidance.

I'm 30 and have had PCOS for two years my HSG test showed blocked fallopian tubes. Besides pregnancy concerns, is surgery absolutely necessary to unblock them? Just wondering if it's something I really need to do or if there are other options

While surgery can be an option for unblocking fallopian tubes, it's not always necessary and there are other treatment approaches, especially if you're not focused on pregnancy. Your doctor will need to assess the specific cause and location of the blockage to determine the best course of action

I've been using Primolut N to push back my period a bit, but I'm having this light blood-like discharge. My periods aren't normal right now. Should I keep taking it? My doc told me to take two pills a day but seemed unsure since I started them a bit late. Can anyone give me a clear idea of what I should do next, maybe with a solution?
