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.

View allI'm a bit worried and need some advice. I'm 16, and a couple of days ago, I lost my virginity with my boyfriend. We used a condom, and it didn't break or slip, and he didn't cum in it, so I thought pregnancy wasn't a possibility. Still, I'm feeling stressed and anxious because since the day after, I've been having stomach pains. I haven't told my parents because of my age, and they don't know about the pains I'm having. Is it normal to experience stomach aches after having sex for the first time? I've been taking paracetamol because they seem to help with the pain. My period usually starts at the beginning of every month, and I only sometimes get cramps a week beforehand. Could these pains be related?
It is not uncommon to experience stomach pains after your first sexual experience, as it can be a new and sometimes uncomfortable sensation for your body. However, if the pain persists or becomes severe, it is important to seek medical advice. In the meantime, continue taking paracetamol for pain relief. Considering your concerns about pregnancy, since you used a condom correctly and it did not break, the chances of pregnancy are low. To further ease your worries, you can consider taking a pregnancy test for confirmation. For the stomach pains, you can also try taking antispasmodic medication like Buscopan to help with any cramping. If the pain continues or worsens, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I'm curious about whether PCOS could be causing my periods to be so light. I used to have normal bleeding for about five days, but now its only lasting two. What could be causing this change?
Yes, PCOS can cause scanty periods. Reduced estrogen levels, thinning of the uterine lining, and increased androgen levels can contribute to lighter, shorter periods. Other possible causes include: - Hormonal imbalance - Ovulation issues - Insulin resistance - Stress - Weight changes
