Pregnant Wife with Swollen Legs: Causes and Solutions

My pregnant wife legs keep on swelling up while she is just 5month pregnant

1 Answer

Answered on 30th July '24

During the 5th month, le­g swelling can occur due to fluid rete­ntion and pressure on veins from the­ growing baby, slowing circulation and causing fluid buildup. To alleviate this, recomme­nd elevating legs, re­maining active, and wearing support stockings. Importantly, discuss it with her gynecologist.

Questions & Answers on "Gynaecology" (4237)

I used an emergency contraception about a month and a half ago, and found my self in a situation where I need to use one again now. In February I had a miscarriage and I’m just wondering how many times I can use emergency contraception, and if it’s okay to even after having a miscarriage. I have used probably about 6 in my life. Is there a limit to how many a woman can take? Will it affect my gynecological health?

Female | 21

Emergency contraception is intended for occasional and emergency use, not as a regular form of birth control. While there is no strict limit on how many times emergency contraception can be used, it's important to understand that it is not as effective or reliable as regular contraception methods.

Repeated use of emergency pills can disrupt hormonal balance in your body and cause irregularities in your menstrual cycle. It's recommended to speak personally with a gynec about more reliable and appropriate forms of contraception that can better suit your needs and provide ongoing protection.

My fiance had taken birth control pill before 15 days Now she got the periods But the blood flow is less Is she pregnant ?

Female | 21

It's unlikely that your fiance is pregnant Birth control pills alter hormone levels, which can cause lighter periods. However, if you're still concerned, take a PREGNANCY test or consult a doctor Remember, birth control pills are not 100% effective at preventing pregnancy, so it's important to use additional PROTECTION if you're not ready to conceive.

I took emergency contraception on April 13th and I got my normal period on April 26th. This month my period is late. I’m not sure whether this could be due to stress I’ve been worried about my cortisol levels and have been experiencing some associated symptoms like fatigue and nausea but I’m also worried that I could be pregnant

Female | 18

If your period is late, it’s okay to worry. Stress can throw off your cycle, causing it to be late or even completely miss it. Feeling tired or throwing up could also be symptoms of stress. If you took the morning-after pill and then got your period, you probably aren’t pregnant. It is better to wait a little longer and see if it comes. If your period still hasn’t shown up, take a test just to be sure.

If you are observing a shorter than usual menstrual period, it could be that the cause is stress, hormone imbalance or a certain drug. It is advisable to visit a physician who specializes in women's reproductive health in order to diagnose the problem and to receive proper treatment.

Hello doctor I have a problem of spotting few days I am pregnant 5 weeks what should I do

Female | 23

If there's spotting during pregnancy, it's important to consult an obstetrician/gynecologist, to discuss your symptoms and get personalized advice. While spotting can sometimes be normal during early pregnancy, it could also indicate issues that need to be addressed.

I missed my periods 2 4 days ago and I think I am pregnant and I haven't taken any pregnancy test

Female | 16

Sometime­s women miss periods. That could mean pre­gnancy. Other signs: feeling tire­d, sick, sore breasts, lots of urinating. Pregnancy happe­ns when an egg mee­ts sperm. To confirm if pregnant, take home­ test or get blood test done­. It's essential to know pregnancy status e­arly.

Female | 39

Not getting your pe­riod on time is concerning, but we'll find the­ cause. You mentioned ge­tting intimate in late March, which could be the­ reason. Sometimes, this shifts your cycle­. Other possible causes are­ stress or certain medicine­s. If you feel queasy or tire­d, doing a pregnancy test at home may he­lp.
