I'm really worried because after having sex with my girlfriend, I gave her Unwanted 72. An hour later, she started having a headache. She felt better the next day, but then in the afternoon, her head began hurting again, this time not as bad. However, by nighttime, the pain got really intense. Could this be a side effect of the pill? What should I do to help her feel better?

Your girlfriend may be experiencing a side effect of Unwanted 72 emergency contraceptive pill. Headache is a common side effect of this medication. To help alleviate the headache, she can take a pain reliever such as Paracetamol (e.g. Tylenol) 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain relief. It is important to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If the headache persists or becomes severe, it would be advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I'm a bit worried. I had protected sex yesterday and just to be extra sure, I took a pregnancy test today which came back negative. But then, I got my period later, though it was a little late. Do I need to take another pregnancy test, or should I be concerned about getting pregnant? I really don't want to be pregnant right now. Can you help me figure this out?
It's reassuring that the pregnancy test came back negative, especially since you got your period, even if it was a bit late. Delayed periods can sometimes happen due to stress, hormonal changes, or other factors. Since you had protected sex and the test is negative, there's no need to worry about pregnancy at this point, but if you're still concerned, you can repeat the test or consult with your doctor for further peace of mind.

I'm 10 weeks pregnant and recently had an incomplete abortion, so I went through a D&C procedure on June 9th. Now, I've noticed there's some swelling in my abdomen, and it's quite painful. I only had bleeding for 2 to 3 days after the D&C. Is this normal? Should I be worried?
Swelling and pain in the abdomen can be common after a D&C procedure. However, if the symptoms are severe or persistent, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider. In the meantime, you can take Ibuprofen 400mg every 6 hours as needed for pain relief. Make sure to rest and avoid strenuous activities. If the symptoms worsen or you experience heavy bleeding, seek medical attention immediately.
