Brief Answer:
Irregular periods have hormonal disbalance origin
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,
welcome to Ask A Doctor service.
I read your query and here is my advice.
If your first day of last period 13 November you are too early to get any home pregnancy test. A pregnancy home test should be at least 5days of the delayed period.
I think your irregular periods are due to hormone disbalance.
You have recently given birth to a beautiful baby so your body needs some time to get its regular hormonal cycles.
However, this doesn't mean that you can't get pregnant if you don't use protection.
Since you were using condoms (referring to other previous questions) there is a very lower probability of pregnancy.
I would recommend you to use a protection method regularly either condoms or hormonal pills or both.
Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.

Ok so I wanted to ask that the blood that I had this Monday 3rd December to 5 december was very light.. so was that a period? And if I want to start taking the pills when do I start?
Also my right side is abit sore and legs are sore like pms when im getting a period. What’s these signs?
Brief Answer:
Could be due to normal period. Take contraception pills right away.
Detailed Answer:
Hello again dear.
Thank you for asking again.
It is a period even though it was light.
You can start taking the pill right now and continue to take it every day.
The right side is painful because of uterine contractions and usually cycle pain. I think there is nothing unusual in it.

Hi doctor I was unable to take the pill on Friday due to circumstances. Can I still take it tomorrow which is day 8 of my cycle considering I had a 2 day period from 3-5 December? Or should I wait for my next cycle to take it. We had intercourse today with a condom however I fear the condom may have slipped and there could be a chance of sperm leakage... should I take the morning after pill tomorrow or just take the birth control.
Brief Answer:
Start pills next month.
Detailed Answer:
Hello again dear. I don't recommend you to start pills now. Wait for next cycle to start it.
Meanwhile continue to use condoms.
For accident you had, you can use emergency pill within 72 hours.
Start pills next month.
Best regards.
