I've been experiencing nausea, cramps, fatigue, and headaches six days after having intercourse and taking the i-pill. I'm really worried and wondering if these are side effects of the i-pill or if they could be early signs of pregnancy. Could you help me understand what's going on?

The symptoms you're experiencingnausea, cramps, fatigue, and headacheare likely side effects of the i-pill, as it contains a high dose of hormones that can cause such reactions. However, to rule out pregnancy, consider taking a urine pregnancy test if your period is delayed. If symptoms persist, consult a doctor.

View allI'm dealing with a polyp in my uterus and it's causing irregular periods and spotting. It gets especially bad when I run or feel stressed. I'm really worried and wondering what can be done to help this situation?
Consider consulting a gynecologist for a thorough evaluation and discussion of treatment options for the uterine polyp, which may include watchful waiting, hormonal medications, or surgical removal via polypectomy or dilation and curettage (D&C); in the meantime, your doctor may recommend hormone-regulating medications or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) to manage symptoms like irregular periods and spotting.

I'm currently pregnant and using an inhaler, but I'm a bit worried about its safety during this time. Could you recommend an inhaler that's considered completely safe for pregnancy?
During pregnancy, it's important to avoid unnecessary medications, but inhalers like **Salbutamol** (a short-acting bronchodilator) are generally considered safe for asthma management. Always consult your doctor before starting any medication to ensure it's the best option for you and your baby.

I've had a lump in my right breast, around 35 cm, slightly toward the lower side, for about 5 years now. Tried homeopathy but didn't see much improvement. Got a mammogram in 2017 which showed it's a fibroadenoma, and the doctor advised removing it soon, but I'm not keen on surgery. Can it be treated with medication instead? If not, what could happen if I leave it since it doesn't bother me much just occasional mild pain during my period. Also, my periods have been irregular for the past 23 months, sometimes late by 2-3 days or up to a week, but recently it was two weeks late. Could this be related to the lump? Should I be worried?
Long-standing fibroadenoma usually needs surgical removal if symptomatic; medications don’t shrink it, and leaving it may risk growth or discomfort, though not typically linked to periods.
