Dr. Hanif warmly welcomes you with thanks for a consult!

I have carefully worked through your case, and can well realize your health worries. Being your physician, I want to assure, I will take care all of your medical concerns according to the latest medical guidelines.


Periods variation of upto 10 days is taken as normal. Jaundice is manifestation of the stress to the body due to liver disease and yes may affect somehow the menstrual cycle too. Menstrual cycles get affected even with emotional stress or hormonal imbalances. I suggest you to wait for and this month of irregularity will be justifiable due to severe disease but if the problem persists for more than two months consecutively, then you need to consult an OB/GYN for complete evaluation and treatment accordingly.


Yes--if there was enough amount of semen on the fingers and there had been fingering done deep enough, there are chances (also less) to get pregnant. Urine pregnancy test from lab or an ultrasound can confirm about conception.
