I've been in a bit of a dilemma. So, I had unprotected sex with my husband on the third day of my period and decided to take the i-pill just to be safe. Now, my period is way overdue; it's been about 15 days late. I went to see a gynecologist, and she prescribed Meprate 10mg. But I'm unsure about what to do next. Should I just wait it out and see if my period comes naturally, even though it's delayed? Or should I go ahead and take the Meprate to kickstart my cycle? I'm also concerned if there might be any side effects if I start taking it. Will I end up having to rely on medication to get my period from now on? Could really use some advice here.

Misses periods is the common sideeffects of ipill. Don't take meprate as it would thicken ur internal lining which has already thickened by ipill causing further periods problem. Just wait u would eventually get ur periods as ipill has got a high success rate

View allI took misoprostol on July 9th at 8:30, but it's been 18 hours and I'm not bleeding. What should I do? I'm starting to get worried.
If you haven't started bleeding within 24 hours of taking misoprostol, it's likely that the abortion was not successful, and you may need to repeat the dose or consider other option

I'm really worried because I noticed these lumps near my vagina, like on both sides, and it's freaking me out. I had a boil about two weeks ago and now there are four lumps. Do you think this could be an infection that's making more lumps pop up? I'm scared and really need some advice on what I should do.
Despite regular brushing and tongue scraping, the white deposit on your tongue can be persistent. Here are some additional remedies and products you can try: *Remedies* 1. *Saltwater rinse*: Mix 1 teaspoon of salt with 8 ounces of warm water. Swish the solution around your mouth, focusing on the tongue, and spit it out. Repeat this process 2-3 times a day. 2. *Hydrogen peroxide mouthwash*: Dilute hydrogen peroxide with water (1 part hydrogen peroxide to 2 parts water). Swish the solution around your mouth for 30 seconds to 1 minute, then spit it out. However, use this remedy with caution, as excessive use can damage tooth enamel. 3. *Baking soda*: Sprinkle a small amount of baking soda on your tongue and gently scrub it with your toothbrush. Rinse with warm water. 4. *Aloe vera*: Apply aloe vera gel to your tongue using a cotton swab. Aloe vera has anti-inflammatory properties that may help reduce tongue inflammation. *Products* 1. *Tongue brushes*: Instead of a tongue scraper, try using a tongue brush. These brushes have soft bristles that gently remove bacteria and debris from the tongue surface. 2. *Antibacterial mouthwashes*: Look for mouthwashes containing ingredients like chlorhexidine, which can help reduce bacteria and plaque on the tongue. 3. *Tongue sprays*: There are various tongue sprays available that contain ingredients like essential oils, which can help freshen breath and reduce bacteria on the tongue. *Additional Tips* 1. *Stay hydrated*: Drink plenty of water throughout the day to keep your mouth moist and wash away bacteria. 2. *Eat a balanced diet*: A healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains can help support your oral health. 3. *Avoid tobacco and smoking*: Tobacco and smoking can contribute to oral health issues, including tongue coating. 4. *Visit your dentist regularly*: Regular dental check-ups can help identify any underlying oral health issues that may be contributing to the white deposit on your tongue.
