Questions & Answers on "Maternity Care" (22)
26 weeks pregnant. Having flu and strip throat and cough. Please recommend cough syrup
Female | 35
Being pregnant brings challenges. Having flu, strep throat, and a cough complicates matters further. The flu is a viral infection causing chills, fever, and body aches. Strep throat is bacterial, leading to painful swallowing and fever. A cough is your body's reflex to clear airways. Soothing remedies include honey in warm water. Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of fluids. Rest is vital for recovery.

Female | 28
After a cesarean delivery, allow time for healing. B Gap tablets help address deficiencies. If six months post-delivery, fatigue persists, discuss B Gap tablets with your gynecologist. They may alleviate tiredness.

Me ye janna chahta hu ki mera priyod 1.5month se nhi aaya tha fir mene pregnancy kit se test Kiya to control line pura dipp line tha aur ek dark line aaya tha to kya me pregnancy me hu
Female | 22
You suspect you might be pregnant because your period is late. A dark line on the pregnancy test indicates a positive result. Symptoms like feeling queasy, tired, or having sore breasts may suggest you are in the early stages of pregnancy. To confirm, please visit a gynecologist for further tests and advice.

Can i take principle ferite tablet in . 4 th week pregnancy
Female | 31
The taking of any medication during pregnancy should not be done unless it is recommended by a doctor. Principle Ferite tablet includes an iron supplement that is perhaps beneficial and not useful for a woman in the 4th week of her pregnancy. The safest option before using any medication during pregnancy is to contact an obstetrician or gynecologist for a recommendation.

My wife have 5 months pregnancy but last night after sex we found a light pink bleeding is it dangerous?
Female | 25
Pink spots showing up after sexual activity during pregnancy can happen. That's because pregnancy makes the cervix extra sensitive due to more blood flowing there. A bit of spotting like this is normal and usually no big deal. But if the bleeding gets heavier, doesn't stop, or comes with cramps, you'll want to see a gynecologist.

I missed my period by 4 days The prega news shows positive pregnancy
Female | 28
You may be pregnant if your period is late for several days. A positive Prega News test means you could be expecting a baby. Usual early signs are feeling sick, tired, and sore breasts. It is important to see a gynecologist for care and advice to confirm your pregnancy.

Am 26 weeks pregnant and I feel pain on my left side of my stomach going down to my vagina and I have a headache and feel dizzy should I worry
Female | 23
Pregnancy causes ligaments to stretch, so feeling pain is normal. Your growing baby presses on ligaments - that's round ligament pain. Headaches and dizziness happen too during this time. However, tell your gynecologist about these symptoms in case anything serious needs checking. To feel better, rest up, drink lots of water, and avoid quick movements.

Female | 29
An NT value of 4.21mm is slightly higher than the usual range, which could indicate a higher risk for certain conditions. It's important to consult with a gynecologist who can provide a thorough assessment and guidance based on your specific situation.

Sometimes, women miss their periods due to stress, hormones, medications, or intense exercise. It's normal to worry if you're not pregnant. Keep track of if it happens again, and see your gynecologist if your periods continue to be irregular.

I m 28 weeks pregnant my citerna magna 9 to 10 mm is it ok
Female | 29
Your ultrasound shows an area called the citerna magna, which is part of the baby's brain. This space usually measures from 3 to 10 millimeters. At 9-10 mm, your baby's citerna magna size falls within normal limits. This is typically harmless and most babies don't experience any issues related to it. Continue with your regular prenatal checkups and monitoring with your gynecologist.

Didnt get periods even after using 5 days of divery
Female | 23
Periods often come late after taking Divery for 5 days. Hormones change, causing missed periods. Nausea, tender breasts, cramps - signs of pregnancy. Take a test if worried. But wait more time if feeling okay.

Period late for 35 days since my last period on may 18 till 21.im 37 years old not married single
Female | 37
Your period may have delayed this month, which happens at times. Various factors like stress, weight changes, or hormonal imbalances could cause the delay. Since your previous cycle ended in May, missing it now seems reasonable. Don't worry excessively, however, if it prolongs, consulting a gynecologist may help identify any underlying issues.

Hey I'm cherylene I've been struggling to fall pregnant and don't know what to do anymore I've been trying for more then a year and I already have a child of 4 year old I don't get a regular period since I was 16 years old My last period was the 12 of january
Female | 30
Not getting pregnant after trying for a while is tough. Your irregular periods make pinpointing ovulation tricky - but that's key for conception. Causes could be hormone imbalances, or medical issues. Chart your cycle using ovulation tests or apps, talk to your gynecologist about what's behind the irregularity, and explore options to address it.

Hi. Myself Zubia 27 y/o female. 3 motnhs pregnant. Can I take Zofer MD 4 tablet during pregnancy for nausea. I am very concerned to read online that it might cause cleft lip in baby and it’s not safe to use during pregnancy. Please advice.
Female | 27
Morning sickness is common for pregnant women. Zofer MD 4 can help with nausea, but it has risks. One risk is cleft lip for the baby. It is very important to talk to your doctor before taking any medicine when pregnant. Your gynecologist can suggest safer ways to help with morning sickness. It is best to be careful to keep you and the baby healthy.

Female | 27 years
Implantation bleeding occurs when a fertilized egg adheres to your uterine lining. It doesn't signify pregnancy complications usually. Light spotting or bleeding can happen. If concerned or experiencing other symptoms, consulting a gynecologist is advisable for reassurance.

When is the earliest I can take a pregnancy test
Female | 18
If your monthly cycle has skipped, you can take a pregnancy test after about seven days. Some typical early signs of pregnancy include missed periods, tender breasts, feeling queasy, and tiredness. These symptoms occur due to hormonal changes in your body. If you suspect you might be pregnant, taking a test can provide peace of mind.

Thank you Doctor , I visited as per your advice . Now it's diagnosed that I have low lying placenta( placenta previa)reaching the os- CRL approx 5.25cm. Is this good or bad ? ( my gynaecologist didn't explain me that well, I tried searching in youtube/ google but almost all were unsatisfactory ). ( by the way I'm 39 years, this is my third pregnancy ,previous deliveries were cesarean. I got pregnant this time with iud due to that I was slightly bleeding for 18 days with mild abdominal pain with small blood clot ,luckily the iud was removed)
Female | 39
Having a placenta positioned low, close to the cervix, with a CRL of 5.25cm, presents potential risks like bleeding. Considering your third pregnancy and previous cesarean deliveries, close monitoring by your gynecologist is crucial. Avoid strenuous activities or heavy lifting. In severe cases, bed rest may be recommended by your doctor.

i did a pregnancy a test and it's showing one line and it faint what does it means? my tummy hurts alot and keep making weird sound
Female | 20
You have taken a pregnancy test and saw a faint line. It might mean that you are pregnant, but it's not for sure. Tummy pain and strange sounds might happen because of gas or indigestion. Please make sure to eat well, drink water, and take rest. If the symptoms continue, please talk to a gynecologist for proper guidance.

During pregnency pan d capsule safe or unsafe ?
Female | 20
Pan D capsules are often okay because they aid stomach troubles like heartburn and acidity. These problems can increase due to hormone changes. But always check with your gynecologist first before using any medicine, to be safe. Also, eating smaller meals and staying away from spicy, greasy foods can naturally ease stomach discomfort in pregnancy.
