I'm really worried because I've been experiencing reduced sexual arousal for about 34 months now. Also, I've been taking medication for PCOD for the past 6 months, and my periods never come on their own anymoreI have to rely on that medication. Lately, I've also been dealing with vaginal dryness during intercourse, along with severe hair loss and persistent weakness. What could be causing all these issues?

It sounds like youre experiencing a combination of symptoms, including reduced sexual arousal, vaginal dryness, hair loss, and weakness, which could be related to your PCOD and the medications you're taking. Hormonal imbalances in PCOD can affect sexual function and cause dryness. It's important to discuss these symptoms with your doctor, who may adjust your treatment plan or explore additional solutions to manage these issues.

I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend on February 11th, and my period had ended just a few days before on the 8th. I took an Unwanted 72 pill within 7 hours afterward. A week later, I experienced withdrawal bleeding for 5 days. I'm really worried about whether there's still a chance I could be pregnant. Also, I'm confused about when I should expect my next period. Can you please help me figure this out?
