I am 28 years old and just took a pregnancy test, which came back positive. I am feeling very anxious, extremely tired, and drowsy. I already have one child, 4.5 years old. Could you please advise what steps I should take next and any precautions I should follow at this stage?

Congratulations. Start folic acid immediately and schedule first scan at 6 to 7 weeks. Tiredness is common in early pregnancy. If severe, check thyroid and hemoglobin.

View allMam and sir my friend took beta hcg blood test two times. First on 27th October the next day after missed periods it was negative. Then she again took beta hcg blood test on 30th October that was positive. Now my question is what can be the reason for the false hcg result before? So from this above incident I am forced to ask you when to take beta hcg test after missed periods or after 2 weeks of intercourse which is more accurate and more reliable? In the above case if he would have considered that she is not pregnant then the scenario can be the worst. So please reply when is the best time to take beta hcg after 15 days of sex or after missed period?

I am 26 years old. My last period was on April 26, and I did not get my period in May. I performed home pregnancy tests on June 3 and June 7, both of which were negative. I consulted a gynecologist, who prescribed Deviry 10 mg for 7 days and advised that if my period still does not occur, I should repeat a pregnancy test. Is there still a chance that I could be pregnant?
