My wife missed her Ovral L pill on the 7th day after finishing the last pack. It's already the 10th day now. Is it okay for her to take it now, or should we be doing something else?

I haven't had my period since then, and I've been dealing with some lower abdomen pain, skin allergies, headaches, hair fall, and I've noticed I've gained some weight. Can you help me figure out what's going on with my health? I'm really worried.

I've been dealing with some irregular periods lately, and I'm trying to figure out why this might be happening. I'm 22 years old, and this has only started happening in the past few months. What could be the causes for these changes in my menstrual cycle?

Common reasons include hormonal imbalances, stress, excessive exercise, thyroid disorders, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and certain medications. I would recommend consulting with a gynecologist for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. If hormonal imbalance is suspected, birth control pills like "Yaz" can be prescribed to regulate the menstrual cycle.
