Could you help me understand why my wife might be experiencing less sexual performance? Are there any specific women's sex tablets, like women Viagra, that you could recommend? I'm looking for some better options and would really appreciate your advice on this.

Reduced sexual performance or desire in women can have many causes, including stress, hormonal changes, or relationship factors. A commonly prescribed option is flibanserin (Addyi), sometimes referred to as "female Viagra," which may help increase sexual desire in premenopausal women. It's important to consult a doctor to determine the underlying cause and explore safe and effective treatments tailored to individual needs.

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?
based on your current gestational age, its likely that everything will be visible at your next scan in 10 days.
