I'm in my first trimester and I'm really worried about stretch marks. I've heard about bio oil helping with them, but I'm unsure if it's safe to use right now. Can you give me some advice on whether it's okay to use bio oil at this stage in my pregnancy?
Yes, you can use Bio-Oil for stretch marks during pregnancy. It is safe to use and can help improve the appearance of stretch marks. Apply Bio-Oil twice daily in a circular motion until fully absorbed.

I'm a bit worried because I haven't had sex with my boyfriend, but we were cuddling and humping naked from June 3rd to June 6th, and his sperm ended up on my lower region. We started worrying about pregnancy, so I took Unwanted 72 on June 7th. We did a urine test on June 8th, and it was negative. My last period ended on May 10th, so I expected my next period around June 7th or 8th. But now it's June 16th, and I still haven't gotten my period. Can taking Unwanted 72 delay my period?
While nipple stimulation can trigger the release of the hormone prolactin, which plays a role in milk production, it typically requires pregnancy or recent childbirth to induce lactation. Without a pregnancy, prolonged nipple stimulation alone may not result in milk production, though it can have temporary effects like increased sensitivity or small amounts of fluid secretion. It's important to consult with a healthcare provider for more personalized advice.
