My wife and I have been trying for a baby for a few months now. This month, her period lasted only half a day and it was just spots. Could this be a sign of pregnancy? We did a pregnancy test two days later, but it came out negative. Last time her period was 17 days late, but this month it was actually on time. This is the first time something like this has happened. Could there be something else going on? What's your take on this situation?

It is possible that a short and light period could be a sign of implantation bleeding, which can occur when a fertilized egg attaches to the uterine lining. However, since the pregnancy test was negative, it is less likely that this was due to pregnancy. A short and light period could be due to various reasons such as hormonal changes, stress, or changes in lifestyle. It is also possible that the menstrual cycle may vary occasionally without indicating a serious issue. If this pattern continues or if there are other concerning symptoms, it is advisable to consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation.

View allI'm 38 weeks pregnant and I've noticed a watery discharge with some white in it since this morning. Could this mean my water is breaking? I'm really worried and would love some advice on what steps to take next.
It sounds like you may be experiencing a watery discharge, which could be a sign of your water breaking, but it can also be normal pregnancy discharge. Its important to check if the fluid is clear, odorless, and continues to flow, which may indicate your water has broken. I recommend calling your doctor or going to the hospital to get checked for peace of mind.

I'm a virgin, but I have a boyfriend, and we've been doing some other stuff together. I've noticed that when I get really excited by his touch or kiss, a whitish milky fluid that can sometimes be transparent comes out of my vagina. It also happens when I masturbate. After this, I feel kind of weak and get pain in my legs. Occasionally it also gets a bit itchy. Is it normal to have this kind of discharge along with the weakness?
The milky fluid you are describing could be normal vaginal discharge, which can vary in consistency and color throughout your menstrual cycle. However, if you are experiencing weakness, pain in your legs, and itching, it may be a sign of an underlying infection. I recommend you to consult a doctor for further evaluation and possible treatment.

I'm a bit concerned because I took mifepristone and then 24 hours later, I followed it up with 4 tablets of misoprostol, just like my gynaecologist told me to. But I've only had a bit of spotting for a little while and then no bleeding at all, just some cramps and nausea. It's been over 21 hours since I took the misoprostol and I'm worried that it might not be working. Can you help me understand what's going on or what I should do next?
Given the lack of bleeding 21 hours after taking misoprostol, despite experiencing cramps and nausea, it's essential to follow up with your gynaecologist as soon as possible to assess the abortion's success and rule out any potential complications or ongoing pregnancy; you may recommend an ultrasound to confirm the outcome and provide further guidance.
