Accepted Answer

: Chances of pregnancy with the cited story are minimal. A pregnancy test on a first morning urine will be accurate by 3 weeks after exposure when a pregnancy occurs.

Question 2

does depression come on suddenly?

Accepted Answer

Generally not: The emotion of sadness can certainly come on suddenly, in response to loss or hurt of some kind.  The illness of depression is very different. Depression involves changes in energy, mood, sleep, appetite, and interest -- and generally involves a more gradual worsening and feeling of stuckness.  The person needs help to move through.  Sadness is painful, but can usually relent on its own.

Accepted Answer

Many impairments: Depression can complicate & impair your life in many ways.  It can be hard to work, care for your kids, or be a good spouse or friend.  It's hard to enjoy anything.

Question 4

would i need to be on medication for reactive depression?

Variable.: Some people work through their depression fine without use of psychiatric medications. However, if a person has significant neurovegetative symptoms (like not eating, not sleeping, not bathing etc.) then they may benefit from psychotropic medications to get back on track.

Question 5

on 4dpd hcg was 3400 and 7dpd hcg was 3600. is it matter of worry? this should double but why not??

Accepted Answer

: Yes, generally HCG increases during this time frame -- I think you should see your Gyn and have them do an ultrasound as well as repeat BhcG's. It may also be prudent to rule out ectopic pregnancy.

Question 9

how to deal with depression while on steroids?

Accepted Answer

Depression.: If you are taking steroids to build up muscle then stop. However, i think you are  probably referring to steroids prescribed to treat a medical condition. In this case (if steroids can't be stopped) then please see a psychiatrist. You may need both antidepressants and talking therapy.  Even though the cause is known, the depression is still approached as other forms of depression.

Question 10

Accepted Answer

Not sure ' sleeping': If you are really sleeping on the floor, then no.  If the quotations are a code for something else then i would need to know the coded message.  Feel free to respond again.
