Question 1

I'm a bit worried because I haven't had sex with my boyfriend, but we were cuddling and humping naked from June 3rd to June 6th, and his sperm ended up on my lower region. We started worrying about pregnancy, so I took Unwanted 72 on June 7th. We did a urine test on June 8th, and it was negative. My last period ended on May 10th, so I expected my next period around June 7th or 8th. But now it's June 16th, and I still haven't gotten my period. Can taking Unwanted 72 delay my period?

Accepted Answer

While nipple stimulation can trigger the release of the hormone prolactin, which plays a role in milk production, it typically requires pregnancy or recent childbirth to induce lactation. Without a pregnancy, prolonged nipple stimulation alone may not result in milk production, though it can have temporary effects like increased sensitivity or small amounts of fluid secretion. It's important to consult with a healthcare provider for more personalized advice.

Question 2

I've got this really big fibroid on the back wall of my uterus and my periods are normal, but the fibroid is like 13 cm. Should I consider getting surgery for it, or would trying homeopathic medicines be better? I'm really unsure about what to do and would love some advice.

Accepted Answer

For a fibroid of that size, surgical intervention is usually recommended to address the issue effectively. Homeopathic medicines may not be able to shrink a fibroid of that size significantly. I would advise consulting with a gynecologist to discuss the surgical options available, such as a myomectomy or hysterectomy, based on your individual case.

Question 3

I'm in my 17th week of pregnancy and starting from my 7th week, I was taking progesterone 200mg. This week, my gynecologist told me to stop taking it, and I'm a bit worried. Is this normal, and could it have any impact on my baby?

Accepted Answer

Stopping progesterone supplementation at 17 weeks is a common practice, as the placenta typically takes over progesterone production by this gestational age; however, it's essential to follow your gynecologist's guidance, as individual circumstances may vary, and abruptly stopping progesterone can increase miscarriage risk in some cases.

Which delivery is painless?

Painless delivery can be achieved using a form of regional anaesthesia that provides pain relief during natural labour(Epidural anaesthesia).
