View allI recently had an ultrasound at 7 weeks 2 days, but it showed I'm actually measuring at 6 weeks 6 days with a fetal heartbeat. For the past four days, I was feeling really nauseous and even threw up as soon as I woke up, but all of a sudden, since yesterday, those symptoms are completely gone and now I feel perfectly fine. Should I be worried about this change? Is it normal to have symptoms come and go at 7 weeks? I had a missed miscarriage around this same time last year, so Im pretty nervous about it happening again.
Possible reasons for recurrent seizures despite proper medication include: medication non-adherence or inconsistent levels, tumor regrowth or recurrence, seizures triggered by external factors (e.g., stress, sleep deprivation), or underlying neurological conditions (e.g., epilepsy). Other potential causes include medication side effects, interactions with other medications, or hormonal changes. Consult a neurologist for a thorough evaluation and adjustment of treatment.

I'm trying to figure out how many days I should rest after getting family planning surgery. Also, are there any specific precautions I need to keep in mind while recovering?
After family planning surgery, rest for at least **2-3 days** is generally recommended, avoiding heavy lifting and strenuous activities for about a week. Keep the surgical site clean and dry, monitor for any signs of infection like redness or swelling, and follow up with your doctor as advised.
