[ { "from": "human", "value": "I am waiting on a period and nothing yet and a few days late. We had sex on the day after ovulation and could possibly be pregnant. The days leading up to ovualtion are the worst if you do not want to become pregnant that is, correct? How high are the chances the day after? I have 3 children already so I keep pushing off the testing as I tell myself I am not. So out of curiousity is the few days after ovualtion not a good idea either for the future?" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.It is rightly said by you that it is not a good idea as the chances of getting pregnant are quite high if you have sex near the ovulation period.So, it is better to practice safe sex during that period if you don’t want to get pregnant.Hope I have answered your query.

[ { "from": "human", "value": "Hi, i have been trying to conceive for years. I have just done HSG and the results are stating that the uterus is retroverted to the left and the right tube did not opacify proximal inclusion. Could you kindly explain and advise the meaning of this? Or could this be the cause of me not conceiving?" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Hi,When the uterus is retroverted, it makes it more difficult for the Sperms to reach inside the uterus. Also when the Fallopian tube is not patent this means that the ova will not move from the ovary to the uterus easily and the sperm if reached the uterus won't be able to find its way to the ova for the fertilization to occur. Both features decrease the pregnancy rate.Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards,Dr. Salah Saad Shoman" } ]

[ { "from": "human", "value": "I am 32 Yrs old. i got married 2 years back. recently i came to know that i have tube blockage. one doctor told me that i have to do labroscopy. but another doctor told me to do injection of placentrex for 15 days.my husband sperm count is normal. whether inj help me to remove blockage. kindly advise us please." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Hi,Placentrex is injectable medicine derived from placental extract. It is an empirical medicine and is believed to dissolve the adhesions. However, I have got a doubt how much it will help you in getting the blocked tubes reopened. There is no harm in trying Inj. Placentrex. Tubal recanalization is not an emergency surgery. If the tubes still remain blocked (which is most likely possibility), you will have to undergo tubal recanalization - by Laparoscopy or by Laparotomy.The success rate of tubal recanalization in terms of pregnancy is somewhere around 60% with Laparoscopy having a better success rate.

[ { "from": "human", "value": "I have been trying for my second baby for almost 20 months , had a miscarrage (blighted ovum) in April 2013, followed by surgical removal, after which my periods have never returned. Scans and blood tests all normal.slight bleed this month for a matter of hours. Have now been prescribed norethisterone to takedown for 7 days from what I believe will be day 21 of my cycle. Should I be using other contraception. Worried that I am taking ovulation tests at the same time and have just picked up an lh surge?" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Hi,History of total absence of menstruation followed by surgical (mostly Dilatation and Evacuation and Curettage) termination of blighted ovum pregnancy is suggestive of adhesions formation in the uterine cavity due to trauma to the uterine lining and the musculature. This entity is known as Aschermann Syndrome. This could be the cause of failure of conception. Hysterosalpingography / Hysteroscopy can diagnose this condition. If Aschermann syndrome is present, the adhesions can be severed delicately during hysteroscopy. Putting some intrauterine device and continuous high Oestrogen treatment may help regeneration of the uterine lining (endometrium). Norethisterone will not help the regeneration of endometrium; it will just be an attempt to have withdrawal bleeding. You need not go for ovulation tests at this stage. Please get the cause for loss of menses diagnosed and treated. Once you start menstruating regularly and normally, you may consider the ovulation monitoring. I hope this gives you preliminary guidelines. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards,Dr. Nishikant Shrotri" } ]

Thanks." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Hi,Your girlfriend has taken Levonorgestrel well in stipulated time; hence she is well protected from the pregnancy due to this intercourse. However, please understand that this pill prevents the pregnancy from the unprotected intercourse performed 72 hours prior to the consumption of the pills. Any intercourse performed after the consumption of the pills is not protected by the previously taken pills. Each intercourse has to be protected by pills taken within 72 hours of the intercourse. Yes, what you have read is right. Few days after the consumption of the pills, some bleeding per vaginum may be experienced. Though it happens in most of the cases, some exceptions may be found. It is not an issue of concern and does not need any medical attention. Moreover, I would like to inform you about one more after effect of these pills.

Since you did not take Nordette pill in correct way, so there is some chance of pregnancy. White discharge could be due to vaginal infection, side effect of pill.If it is foul smell then it suggest vaginal infection. Vaginal swab tests by consulting gynecologist will help in diagnosis. Abdominal cramp could be due to premenstrual symptoms. I would suggest to wait for period to come. If period will delay by more than 7 days then go for urine pregnancy tests and or blood HCG test to confirm pregnancy. Meanwhile avoid stress, drink plenty of water,Wash vagina with warm salted water then apply apple cidar vinegar. Wear pure cotton loose inner and maintain proper pelvic hygiene by using V vaginal plus wash. Hope this may help you. Contact further if follow up needed.Best regards,Dr. Sagar" } ]

I am sorry to hear about your previous pregnancy loss. I will suggest you to opt for a healthy diet and regular exercise regimen. Include more portions of fruits, salads and vegetables in daily diet. Avoid deep fried foods, bakery products and refined sugars. Use of vitamin B 12 and Folic acid, omega 3 supplements at least 3 months before you plan to get pregnant. This helps to prevent many problems during pregnancy and delivery. 3. Also, ensure patency of the fallopian tubes by doing post menstrual HSG, hysterosalpingography.

However, it does not prevent the pregnancy from the intercourse performed after taking the pill. From your query, it is not clear exactly when did you consume the Next Choice pill. You had intercourse on 20th. If you have taken the pill within 72 hours; i.e. before 23rd, you are protected from pregnancy due to this intercourse. You need not repeat the pill again after a week. However, if you were late in taking the pill, repeating it after a week is not going to help you. In that case, you do stand the risk of pregnancy. If you have taken pill 2 hours after the sexual intercourse on 26th, you are protected from the pregnancy due to this intercourse; however, you stand the possibility of pregnancy from the intercourse on 20th. These pills do delay the period by few days to a week or so. Therefore, if your periods are delayed, perform pregnancy test on overnight morning first urine sample after one week of missed period; earlier the test may report false negative.

Firstly let us discuss about the ectopic pregnancy, it is a type of pregnancy in which pregnancy occurs other than the womb, mostly in fallopian tubes. If it ruptures, it requires removal of that site of fallopian tube, and this same thing happened with you. But you have the one healthy fallopian tube so relax. You are having high chances of getting pregnant. You also come under the age group in which there is maximum chances of getting pregnant. So you have double chances of getting pregnant.

So my straight forward answer is, YES. There is chances but its VERY VERY LESS to getting her pregnant. Usually chances of getting pregnant is more when ejaculation occurs when penis is inside the vagina. But in your case as you told that your penis did not go inside the vagina and you were just rubbing it against her outer vagina. So there is very very less chance of getting pregnant. So DONT WORRY, RELAX. You also told that u didn't have condom on that time. And there is pre-ejaculation occurs around her vagina. So there is little bit chances having for getting pregnant. For that you do not need to take tension because your girlfriend can use emergency contraceptive pill (i-pill) within 72 hrs of unprotected intercourse. As told by you that you people had intercourse 2 days ago. So there is sufficient time to take emergency contraception. This is usually available your nearby medical store at affordable prices. With this above discussion you can try out my suggestions-1. Don't waste time and get the i-pill as early as possible. Ask your girlfriend to take it. Wait till her next menses. If she gets menses on her expected or delay date, she will not be pregnant. 2. You can do urinary pregnancy test after 5-6 days of her missed period. It is available at affordable prices your nearby medical store.

If after 5 years also there is any problem in conception, you need to undergo various investigations to assess various factors which are essential for conception. They are: 1. Ensure that you are releasing the eggs (ovulation) regularly. This can be done by ultrasonography ovulation monitoring. Once you understand about the day of the ovulation, you can plan your sexual relations on and around that day. Ovulation monitoring home kit also is available for the purpose. Monitoring the hormonal levels and studying the uterine lining also can provide this information. 2. Assessing the patency of the tubes and normalcy of the uterine cavity and the surrounding tissues. Hysterosalpingography, Laparoscopy and Hysteroscopy can provide this information. 3. Semen examination to assess the quality and quantity of the sperms.
