Can I get pregnant even on Progesterone-only pill?

I take 10mg of Norethisterone for irregular heavy bleeding from Day 14 for 12 days. After that i get a withdrawal bleeding for 7 days and then it gets stopped and the cycle continues.

I take the pill mostly to manage my bleeding but i am still open to get pregnant. Is it possible to get pregnant even i take this pill for 12 days of my cycle?

A role model for muslim women to follow

As muslims, we are said to follow Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in our way of living and worship. However, all due respect to the Prophet, he was a man and its very easy for general men to just follow his Sunnahs while for muslim women they lack a female role model to look upon to or follow.

Although i realize that the Prophet's way of living is perceived universal and unisex but there is still this lack of direction for women in terms of affairs with husbands, in-laws, society, work, worship, menstrual issues, finances etc taken from lives of noble women of that time who were guaranteed Jannah and considered of higher rank spiritually, socially etc.

A portion of father's wealth goes to cousins because i have no brother

What is the logic behind this ruling that if i dont have a brother then a portion of my father's wealth will go to my male cousins just because i was born a woman.

Why, as a woman, am i being given less and being discriminated for my gender?

Why does Islam give more priority to men in terms of wealth, social status and leadership while treating women as something less?

My (31F) husband (33M) has a female best friend (30F) with whom he was in a FWB situation about 14 years back. My husband is a virgo and that girl was a scorpio while i am a gemini. Anybody who has idea about astrology would know that virgo-scorpios are literal soulmates and rock each other's world mentally, emotionally and sexually.

Their FWB situation did not last longer than a few months as my husband finally fell for some other girl back then but they kinda broke after 6 months and then FWB situation never resumed.

According to my husband, he doesnt acknowledge that FWB situation as a relationship or his friend ever as his girlfriend. But i have seen messages of them accepting that they loved each other and still kinda have feelings exactly 1 year before i entered his life. Even the day my husband told her about dating me, she didnt really believe that he would marry me and said if they were single until 40 then they will start dating.

But later when she met me before marriage, she was very impressed by me becoming my literal fan and since then has not made romantic advances towards my husband.

FYI, none of this was hidden from me by my husband and he informed me about his each and every relation, fling, hookups before marriage so that i can make an informed decision.

We have been married for 5 years now and they have reduced communicating a lot to a point of once in a year. Even if i tell him to call her or text her to know how is she doing, he resents or avoids it. She also got married 2 years back.

But now suddenly, out of a blue, upon going through their conversations again i am feeling extremely insecured, jealous and sad so much that i have not been able to sleep for nights, crying relentlessly, and jeopardizing my health.

I feel that they have a very strong connection and will get together in future somehow leaving me miserable. I dont want him to end his friendship with her but i also strongly feel that they should have been together given their chemistry.

How can i deal with this situation?

Kindly advise.

I have this recurring habit of going through my husband's phone and read his old messages to his exes. Some of them even dates back to 14 years ago i.e. 2012

I try to imagine what his chemistry was with his exes and what they had which our relationship lacks.

Although my husband swears that i am his greatest relationship ever and longest partner to stay with him but i still cant help but comparing myself to his exes.

I am literally on eggshells! Hurting deeply inside thinking that maybe i am not being able give him what he wants from a relationship, maybe his past exes were better or maybe he still loves them and just settled for me etc etc.

Any advice on how to get over it?
