Question

I'm in my 7th month of pregnancy now, it just started on May 23rd, 2021, but I havent felt any baby movements for the last couple of days. I can hear the heartbeat though. Everything was fine in the 6th month with lots of movement. Should I be worried about the reduction in movements? What might be causing this?

Hi! It's great that you're hearing the baby's heartbeat, but a decrease in movements can sometimes indicate a need for medical attention. Please visit your doctor immediately to ensure everything is okay. They might do an ultrasound or other checks for reassurance.

Question

I'm 33 and pregnant, about six months along. I've been keeping an eye on my pulse rate using an oximeter, and it's usually about 100 beats per minute. But today, it spiked to 130 beats per minute. Is this something I should be worried about?

Question

I'm a bit worried after getting my ultrasound results. It says I have mild hepatomegaly with grade I fatty liver, and there are small renal calculi in both kidneys. The report also mentions a left ovarian hemorrhagic cyst measuring 39x32mm and a mildly bulky cervix with a few nabothian cysts. There's also some free fluid in the pouch of Douglas. Can you help me understand what all this means? Is there anything serious I should be concerned about?

Question

I'm really concerned about my friend's situation because his wife's vaginal area is too tight and it's making sex really difficult for them. He reached out to me for advice and I suggested they try a water-based lube since I had read about it online somewhere, but I'm not sure which one is the safest or most effective without side effects. What would you recommend for them?
