I've had my period twice in the span of 15 days. Honestly, I haven't done anything different with my diet or daily routine. I've been on some meds for about a month and a half now, though. Back in October, I was expecting my period around the 28th, but it showed up on the 18th. And now it's here again on November 3rd. The medications I'm currently taking include Indocap, Pantocid, Defcort, and Chekbak D3. Why might my period be so early, and what should I do about it?

The early period could be due to the medications you are taking. Indocap is a brand name for Indomethacin, which can sometimes affect menstrual cycles. Pantocid is a brand name for Pantoprazole, which may also have an impact on menstrual regularity. Defcort is a brand name for Deflazacort, which can sometimes cause hormonal changes leading to irregular periods. Chekbak D3 is a supplement containing Vitamin D3, which is not known to directly affect menstrual cycles. I recommend consulting with your healthcare provider to discuss the possibility of these medications affecting your menstrual cycle. They may suggest adjusting the dosage or switching to alternative medications if necessary.

I'm kind of worried because I had unprotected sex on March 20th and got nervous so I took an ipill within 12 hours, even though he didnt finish inside me. Then the next day we had unprotected sex again, and I took another ipill. My period was supposed to start on March 25th, but now its late, and I havent had any bleeding, even though Ive read that you might get a heavy flow after taking ipills. I'm really scared. What should I do?

The delay in your period could be a side effect of the pill. I recommend waiting for a few more days for your period to arrive. If you do not get your period after a week or so, you can consider taking a pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy. In the meantime, try to stay calm and avoid stress as it can also affect your menstrual cycle.

I've been experiencing spotting after my periods for the past year. My doctor mentioned it might be an infection or a polyp in the uterus. Can you help me understand what's going on? I'm worried and just want to know the right reason behind this.

Spotting after periods for 1 year could be due to various reasons, including hormonal imbalances, uterine polyps, or infections like endometritis or pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), and while your doctor suspects an infection and polyp, other possible causes like adenomyosis, fibroids, or cervical lesions should also be considered, so further diagnostic tests like ultrasound, hysteroscopy, or endometrial biopsy may be necessary to determine the underlying cause.

I've recently had a medical termination and after 15 days, I found out there are retained products. My doctor used 2 tablets to help but I'm only feeling lower back pain and no other symptoms. How long until bleeding starts? Can retained products be expelled through bleeding, or will they come out with my period? Is it safe to wait until my next period for them to pass? I'm really worried and would appreciate some advice.
