Patient's question:
Two months ago, my girlfriend didn't come for a long time. She took a pregnancy test and said it was fine, but in the second month, she said her period was dark in color, with a small amount but it lasted for almost half a month. Recently, my girlfriend said her lower abdomen is a bit swollen, and she looks a bit fatter. I don't know if she's pregnant.Doctor's answer:
Based on your symptoms, it seems to be related to issues during the menstrual period regarding pregnancy. If it occurs during the ovulation period, there is a possibility of pregnancy. The ovulation period generally falls around 14 days before the next menstrual period, with a three-day window being highly fertile. It is recommended to drink more water, get adequate rest, and avoid the ovulation period to reduce the chances of pregnancy.In fact, under normal circumstances, practicing any form of contraception can pose certain risks to the pregnant individual. Therefore, patients should pay attention to their diet. Those using contraception should also focus on self-care, such as dietary adjustments, maintaining warmth, and avoiding exposure to cold.
