I'm a 28-year-old woman and I've just found out that I'm pregnant. I've been using a Levolin inhaler for my asthma, and I'm feeling a bit concerned. Can I keep using this inhaler during my pregnancy, or should I look into other treatment options?

Congratulations on your pregnancy! While Levolin (salbutamol) is generally considered safe during pregnancy, it's important to consult your doctor to assess your specific needs. They may recommend adjusting your medication or dosage based on your asthma control and pregnancy status.

I'm 32 and expecting my second child, and I'm 5 weeks and 4 days along based on my scan. The scan didn't show the yolk sac yet, and my doctor said it might take up to 10 days more to see it. She mentioned it's normal for it to not be visible this early. Is this something I should be worried about, and when might I actually see the yolk sac and fetal pole?

Question

Can period be delayed by 10 days?
