Vaginal discharge or leukorrhea occurs through the menstrual cycle and is usually white before & after the period. Discharge may start out as thin liquid before the time of ovulation. During ovulation, the discharge thickens and becomes mucus like. After ovulation, i.e., in second half of the cycle, discharge increases usually.

I'm having this constant ache near my stomach due to gas, and I'm currently five months pregnant. Is this something normal for where I'm at in the pregnancy? Are there any home remedies that can help with this?

I've been wondering about something. My partner and I recently started having sex, we're not married, and we're doing it regularly a few times a week, including oral, vaginal, and anal. I know it might sound a bit awkward, but I'm curious if having sex that often could actually make my breast and butt size visibly larger? We always make sure to use condoms during penetration.

Engaging in sexual activity, including 3-4 times a week, does not directly increase breast or buttock size. These are influenced by genetics, hormones, and body composition rather than sexual activity. Using condoms during penetration is a great practice for safe sexkeep it up!

Is it harmful to take unwanted 72 two times in a week? I noticed that I start having periods right after taking it. Can you help me understand what's going on?

-Taking Unwanted 72 frequently, like twice a week, can disrupt your hormonal balance and lead to irregular periods. It's meant for emergency use, not regular contraception. If you're using it often, consider switching to a more reliable, long-term method
