Yes but it is also natural that there to be less blood flow to the clitoris and vagina, which reduces sensitivity and can make orgasms both more difficult to achieve and less intense.

I'm a bit worried because I accidentally took 2 Zandu Parad tablets a few weeks ago, and I'm currently one month pregnant. The tablets have mercury 30 mg and Khatika 60 mg in them. They're usually used in households for things like protecting grains. I haven't had any symptoms or felt unwell, but I'm concerned about any potential effects on my baby. Could there be any risks or side effects from this? Would love some advice on what I should do next.

if you have consumed it 20 days ago and now pregnant since one month(ie your last periods was around 12th of April I guess) then nothing to worry much as baby wasn't formed yet 20 days ago.. and moreover you consumed safe limit of mercury so only you dint have any symptoms.. if you still have worry then your usg at 10-12weeks wil tel if baby is normal or not as by then all parts of you baby will be formed well..if your stil anxious then consult your physician and obstetrician once..

I'm 7 weeks pregnant and my doctor advised me to take Folvite tablets once in the morning. But I've been taking them at night instead. Could this affect my pregnancy? I'm really worried about it. What should I do?

I'm really concerned because I had a family planning operation along with an abortion back on April 24th, 2018. Right after the procedure, I just had spotting and some stomach pain. But now, 13 days later, I'm experiencing bleeding. Is this something I should be worried about? What steps should I take to address this?

The bleeding 13 days post-family planning operation and abortion warrants immediate medical attention; possible complications include infection, retained products of conception, or hemorrhage; contact your surgeon or gynecologist,
