Hi thee Eby, bleeding should have stopped already and your period should have returned within 3-6 weeks. Please see your doctor to find out what might be happening.

On 22/4/2017 I saw my period and it lasted for three days. My fertile time was from 1-6 but I had unprotected sex with my husband 1,2,3,4,5 please is there possibility for me to get pregnant?
Hello there Jaa, yes based on these dates and when you had unprotected sex then it is highly likely. All the best.
I had an abortion in about four weeks now but it still shows positive in my urine test but am not feeling any sign of pregnancy too and my period hasn’t come.
Hi there Helen, if the pregnancy test says you are pregnant then more than likely the abortion was not successful, a positive pregnancy test indicates that HCG levels in your body was high enough to be detected. Please see your doctor. All the best.

Hello after taking misoprostol no bleeding has happened. What is the meaning of this why no bleeding is happened ?
Hello Salpni, you did not say how long ago this was taken, however this should start to work based on the time in which it is taken. All the best.
I got my period on 24th April. It ended on the 28th and I had sex with my boyfriend on the 1st of May. For the first few seconds, he penetrated without a condom but quickly pulled out and wore one and he never came. My ovulation period was supposedly 3-7 May if I calculated properly as my average cycle is 27 days. Could I get pregnant?
Hello Gill, unless his sperm was at some point released in you then there is no chance of pregnancy.
Hello, I had an unprotected sex with my boyfriend today, and it was my first time, and first time he did not finish into me, but then we had sex again (again not into me) but I am worried that I might get pregnant… It is my 18th day (of 30 days cycle). Should I be worried or wait till the date my period is supposed to start and then start taking steps if it is very late? Thank you very much
Hello Carol, once no sperm was released in you you should be fine, however if you are late you can go ahead and take a pregnancy test. All the best.

Hi,I took vermox antibiotics two days before my period. My period was supposed to be on 7 May 2017 but missed it. Could the vermox drug be the reason behind the missed period?
Hello Adlyne, yes, over the years anti-biotics have been known to alter a female’s cycle, however your period should return in a couple of days.
