Can I Switch from L Folinine to Folvite Active?

I am 6 weeks pregnant. I had been suggested by a doctor to either take L Folinine or folvite active for two months. I have been taking L folinine for 1 month. Now can I change it to Folvite active(due to unavailability of L folinine in my area) ? I noticed that the dosage of L methyl folate is different in both the tablets. (5mg in L folinine and 1mg in folvite active).

Folinine and Folvite­ Active have folic acid, a key nutrie­nt for a baby's growth. Though doses vary, Folvite's 1mg should work too. Since Folinine­ isn't around, switch to Folvite Active to get e­nough folic acid. Keep taking it as instructed. But if anything fe­els off, check with your gynecologist again.

I am 30 years old. I want to conceive naturally but I have PCOD. My ovulation dates are getting clashed on the honeymoon period. Kindly suggest how to get pregnant during this time. I am also taking folic acid tablets

Female | 30

PCOD can bring about irregular periods, and thus, it may be challenging to predict ovulation. Your ovulation time is the same as your honeymoon this is what I will suggest: use ovulation predictor kits for the purpose of recording your fertility period. These can help you masculinize the woman and find out the day she is likely to conceive. You should still keep taking your folic acid supplements as they are one of the most important things for a successful pregnancy.

If you're experiencing irregular periods speak to your gynecologist. Getting irregular menstruation is common after you start menstruating. But if this is consistent then visit a gynec soon to find the reason and apt treatment for it

During intercourse our contraceptive method was broked then I consume unwanted 72 within 1.5 hours after few days i had withdrawal bleeding Is there any chance of pregnancy still?

Female | 20

Did you experience unexpected bleeding after using Unwanted 72? That's a good sign! However, it doesn't guarantee full effectiveness, so there's still a chance of pregnancy. Keep an eye on any symptoms like nausea, breast tenderness, or a missed period, and consider taking a pregnancy test.

I am 17 year old girl... I have missed my periods for 8 months.. Once i consulted a gynaecology doctor she said i have no problems like pcod... And after some months i tried home remedy but didn't get results what should i do...? Can i take periods tablets for all month to get periods

Female | 17

It's important to know why periods can be missed. Stress, sudden weight change, intense workouts, hormone irregularities, or some diseases might lead to this. It may not be safe to take period pills without knowing what caused it. Instead, go back to the doctor. They could conduct tests and find out the exact problem then give appropriate treatment.

Hlw mam period me sex ke baad ladki pregnant hoti hain ?

Male | 24

Menstruation, the process under which a girl loses an egg that hasn't been fecundated by sperm, is the typical cause of her having her period. However, if a girl goes unprotected during this period and has sex, then sperm can be united with the egg which will lead to a pregnancy. Besides this, pregnancy may also show symptoms such as missed periods, nausea, and fatigue. It is recommended to use a condom or any birth control pill to avoid pregnancy.

I am 22 years of age experiencing period pains but no periods

Female | 22

This can happen to some people. Usually, it is nothing to worry about. The stresses, hormonal changes, or normal body changes might be the reasons for these pains. You can try light exercise to feel better. Also, you can apply a warm compress to your lower belly or take over-the-counter pain relief medicine like ibuprofen if needed.
