Is it safe to breastfeed while consuming alcohol?
Can I breastfeed while having alcoho
Social Obstetrics And Gynecologist
Answered on 23rd May '24
It is generally recommended to avoid consuming alcohol while breastfeeding, as alcohol can pass into breast milk and affect your baby. Even small amounts of alcohol can potentially be harmful to a nursing infant. When you consume alcohol, it enters your bloodstream, and some of it will be present in your breast milk. As a result, your baby will consume the alcohol when they breastfeed. Infants metabolize alcohol at a slower rate than adults, which means it can take longer for their bodies to eliminate it.
Alcohol consumption while breastfeeding can have several negative effects on your baby. And the safest approach for your baby's health is to abstain from alcohol while breastfeeding.

What is o e/o utero-placental or feto-placental insufficency
Male | 29
Uteroplacental or fetoplacental insufficiency is when the placenta is unable to perform its vital functions, hence, the baby's problems. Symptoms comprise poor growth, a decrease in movements, and low amniotic fluid. Causes can be high blood pressure or smoking. To help, physicians might observe the patients closely, suggest rest, and plan for the early delivery of the baby. This case is an example of careful preparation for a healthy baby.

Hi Sir, I have been operated for an ectopic pregnancy 4 years ago. I'm now 35 years old. My hormonal profile and my husband's sperm analysis is normal. HSG showed a fimbria end block. What options should I consider for fertility?
Have you checked the AMH level of yourself, and also the antral follicle count in Sonography?
Hsg is not the absolute report, probability of it being right is 60% since the patient is conscious and the procedure itself is painful, thus the report can falsely show positive/negative indication. The true status of the tube is better assessed by a diagnostic hysterolaparoscopy, wherein we put a telescope in your abdomen.
If in any doubt, then approach doctors from this page - Ivf doctors in India, or you can seek help from me too.

Iam 20 year female, I have a 26 day menstrual cycle. Every month 11th I have my menstrual period. This month 10th I had an unprotected Sex and it was my first sex. On 11th I didn't get my menstrual period. On 12th afternoon at 3 pm I took levonorgestrel pill. After that on 13th I felt dizziness and from 2 days iam frequently urinating. Now today the date is 16th it's been 5 days I have put on the pill. But I didn't get menstrual period. Iam very afraid. I don't want to get pregnant. Iam unmarried. Please check my situation.
Female | 20
The indications of instability, as well as frequent urination, are the side effects that come with the intake of a levonorgestrel pill, in some cases. One of the repercussions of this pill is an alteration in your menstrual cycle, i.e., a late period. More often than not, it is a typical reaction to developed bleeding, i.e., the moment after the pill is consumed when the period is expected. Keep a cool head and try to avoid getting stressed out, because stress has an impact on your period. If you did not have your period after the first week or two, it is advisable to take a pregnancy test to be 100% sure.

If you have unprotected sex and your period is late, it's a good idea to take a pregnancy test to check for pregnancy. Since you’re 20, visiting a gynecologist would be helpful to discuss your symptoms and get personalized advice.

I am 20 years old girl... I have taken unwanted 72 before 2 days... When I go to urine I feel blood dots after urination.. Is this the sign or it's anything else
Female | 20
You may have started noticing some side effects of the Unwanted 72 usage. The appearance of blood dots from urination may be the case sometimes. It could be because of the irritation of the urinary tract caused by the medication. Help your body to get rid of the unwanted substances by drinking enough water. If the bleeding continues or worsens, it is advisable to consult a gynecologist to rule out any other possible causes.

I got late periods for 10 days.got my last period on August 12.had sex on 17 and 18 August using condom.
Female | 24
Late periods can be caused by several different things. Stress, fluctuations in weight, or hormone imbalances are the most common culprits. Sometimes, a pregnancy can also hold up a period. Because you had protected sex, pregnancy is not very likely. If you have other symptoms such as nausea or breast tenderness, you might want to take a pregnancy test. If your periods are late for a long time, visit a gynecologist.

The reason for irregular periods could be hormonal imbalance. Some common symptoms of the hormonal imbalance are irregular periods, heavy or light bleeding, and mood swings. Stress, diet, and health conditions can cause these problems. The best way to deal with it is to consult a gynecologist for advice on managing hormonal balance.

Female | 17
This can be caused by factors like stress, body weight changes, hormonal imbalances, or even pregnancy. Keeping in the know means it is best to keep track of other symptoms, like, if you have been feeling weak or your breasts are tender whether they are or are not is a good thing to know. If you are worried, you should test and talk to your gynecologist.

Im 21 year old female My periods are regular But this month I haven't got my period yet last month I got on 17th Today I have seen slight bleeding while urinating I have also gained weight as I have changed my diet last month Is there anything to worry
Female | 21
It's perfectly normal to be concerned when your body changes, however, try not to worry too much. A little bit of blood when you pee and gain weight might be linked to fluctuating hormones or a shift in your diet. It could also mean that your period is changing due to stress or a change in what you eat. Watch for a while longer; if things don’t seem right, talk to a gynecologist..

The day my period was due I did foreplay on that day, now my period is not coming after that.
Female | 18
Stress, alterations in routine, or hormonal imbalances can affect your cycle. At times, periods can be delayed for a few days. In the case of still not having a period for a week, then take a pregnancy test to make sure that it is not a pregnancy. However, the most important is to take care of yourself and be calm.

Female | 25
You may be suffering from hormonal imbalance, which can lead to irregular periods, pain, and heavy bleeding. Your low weight may also be a factor that contributes to these problems. To help regulate your periods and manage the symptoms, it's important to focus on improving your overall health and nutrition. Following a healthy diet and ensuring a proper weight can be the main reason for the success of the treatment. If the problems persist, you should go to a gynecologist for further tests and guidance.

Am 28 the pregnancy test shows negative, and am yet to see my period for d month
Female | 28
If your pregnancy test is negative and you haven't had your period this month, it is likely due to stress or irregular hormone levels. High stress can affect your hormones in various ways. Even if the test is negative, it may not be entirely accurate. Surround yourself with loved ones and laughter to boost your well-being. Stay calm, maintain a healthy diet, and stay hydrated. If this issue persists, consult a gynecologist.

Mera delivery date nikl gyi or doctor bole ki bache ke Gale me 3 naal fasi he kya meri normal delivery ho sakti h
Female | 24
If the doctor says there are three cords around the baby's neck, it's called a nuchal cord. This is a common occurrence and is usually not dangerous. To ensure the delivery goes smoothly, the doctor will monitor the baby closely to make sure there are no complications. Most babies with a nuchal cord are born healthy. So, stay optimistic and follow the doctor's instructions carefully.

Is it possible two days after sexual intercourse to test if you are pregnant?
Female | 42
PREGNANCY TESTS can detect pregnancy hormones 2 weeks after conception. It's unlikely to detect pregnancy within 2 days post-sex!!! A wait of at least 1 week after missed period ideal... Using test kits too early may give false negative results. CONSULT a doctor if pregnancy suspected for accurate testing.

Itchy skin with boils in the vaginal area can happen for a few reasons. Sometimes, an infection called folliculitis causes it. Or, a skin issue like eczema may lead to this problem. Keeping the area clean and dry is key. Cotton clothes help. Also, avoid wearing tight clothing. If the itching and boils bother you, see a gynecologist. They can give the right treatment.
