It's important to consult your doctor before continuing Montral and Omnacortil during pregnancy. While they may help manage symptoms, both medications have potential risks for the baby. Your doctor can suggest safer alternatives to manage your allergic cough during pregnancy.

Question

I'm really worried about my friend. She's been having vaginal bleeding after intercourse for the last two days, and I don't know how to help her. Do you know what could be causing this or if there's any medicine that can help stop the bleeding? It's urgent, so any advice would be great.

Question

My wife's in her 6th month of pregnancy and she's been having some issues like vomiting, a cold, runny nose, and headaches. We went to a gynecologist who prescribed some meds like azithromycin, Sinarest, and Ascoril D Plus syrup. We even did a COVID test and it was negative. I'm just really concerned if these tablets are safe during pregnancy, especially since she's at 24 weeks now. Are there any possible side effects on the baby from these medications?

Question

I've had a persistent cough for over two months now. It all began with painful swelling on the backs of my hands. I had a high fever that went away after taking medicine for five days, but the cough stuck around. Now I'm experiencing chest pain and shortness of breath with even a little activity, and the pain has moved to a sharp lung pain below my chest. I saw a pulmonologist, and my CT scan was normal, although my WBC count was a bit high. Today I went to a gynecologist because of lower abdomen pain and found out I have a left ovarian cyst. What could be going on? I'm really worried about how all these symptoms tie together. Is it something serious?
