Avatar m tn Nurse advised me to take ZIDOLAM-N as PEP for 28 days. After continuing for 3 days i visited a doctor and he told me that Nevirapine should not be used for PEP but since i already started the PEP, he advised me to continue the same medication and asked to monitor closely the side effects of the drug. Now today Friday i am experiencing some pain in the upper abdomen. Is there any possibility that i can change the PEP drug to avoid nevirapine, please Suggest?
Avatar m tn I am going to the US in 2 days, if I cannot find a way to get pep here, could I take his ARVs just until then as a temporary measure? He says he takes nevirapine and tenofivir/lamivudine blend. Any advice really appreciated! If my risk is very low I would prefer not to take pep but I suspect I may be best advised to do so. If it makes a difference, I am prone to have a tiny amount of blood(I think from tears) on toilet paper when I use the bathroom so that may make it more risky? Thanks!
Avatar f tn Some anabiotic's can decrease the effectiveness of birth control pills, but most do not. Metronidazole (Flagyl) is what is usually used to treat BV and it does not has not been shown to decrease the effectiveness of birth control pills. Because some antibiotics like rifampin used to treat tuberculosis may decrease the effectiveness of birth control some providers are just more comfortable telling people they should use an additional back up birth control method on any antibiotics.

The combination of high estrogen and progesterone levels suppresses further ovulation during pregnancy. Progesterone also encourages the growth of milk-producing glands in the breast during pregnancy. High progesterone levels are believed to be partly responsible for symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS), such as breast tenderness, feeling bloated, and mood swings.
Avatar m tn As I type this I am shaking in fear.. I really need your Professional advise on this. On Saturday morning last week I met a girl in Cambodia. After a few drinks together I took her back to my hotel & we had sex. I used a condom throughout the intercourse, however, after I ejaculated & pulled out I noticed the condom broke. It must have broke near the end as when we changed positions I noticed it was intact each time.
Avatar n tn He said that he is Undetectable for years now he also showed me his meds Truvada and Nevirapine... And I asked if he had Stds he said none because if he does have it. It would be detrimental to his health...

This person then checked the condom for leakage by filling it with water. Ah, I remember those days, I actually forgot about that technique, of course I actually did it for more of a fear of pregnancy reasons --didn't want my gf to get pregnant.
Avatar f tn Did you ever take a pregnancy test to even see if you were pregnant? If not then maybe your period was just late. If you knew for sure that you were pregnant and now you're bleeding you should go see your doctor.
Avatar n tn My sister got pregnant after her tubes were tied. Go to the dr, if you are they will likely do an ultra sound to make sure ots mot a tubal pregnancy.
Avatar m tn Hey, i took a pregnancy test the other day and it came back positive, then about 4 days later i took another one and it came back negative- i have sore boobs, been feeling and being sick, cramps, back ache- am i pregnant?
Avatar n tn Well, another pregnancy is certainly possible. If it's been two weeks since your last unprotected sexual encounter, then you should be able to try another pregnancy test. Use first morning urine and a sensitive test like First Response. The other possibility is that that was your period and it was just unusually light. After terminating a pregnancy, your hormones can take a bit of time to adjust, and it's not uncommon to have heavier then or lighter then normal cycles.
Avatar f tn My partner and I have been trying for a baby for a while and I missed my period 3 weeks ago, however pregnancy test came back negative 3 times. Im a healthy 23yr old. Any suggestions to what else it could be ? Should I test again soon ?

Avatar f tn hi! I am new to this site. But i am wanting some info and keep getting different opinions. I ovulated may 22nd and sunday i starred bleeding and bled monday and today but today it stopped for about an hour and cam back and went away again. But now i only see it when i wipe. I had clots when i was bleeding. But im not vbleeding heavy like a normal period and i dont even feel like i should be on my period. Could i be pregnant.
Avatar f tn As long as ur not bleeding with the cramps they are normal and will differ in every pregnancy. With my first pregnancy i had horrible cramps all the time. The beginning was the worst the 2nd trimester was a lot better and the 3rd trimester they came back.
