I recently found out that my periods are delayed by about 8 days, so I ended up taking a beta hCG test. The results showed a really low beta hCG level, and it indicates less than 4 weeks of pregnancy with a value of 242.9 mIUml. I'm concernedis having a low hCG level at this point something that could lead to a miscarriage? I'm not sure what to think and would love to know if this is something I should be worried about.

View allI'm kind of worried because my wife's pregnancy test at home came back positive, and when we got a urine HCG test done at the lab, it was positive too. The thing is, she's about 5 weeks along, but the ultrasound didn't show a gestational sac. Does this mean she's actually pregnant, or should we be concerned?
Repeat the scan at 7 weeks of gestation and observe,follow your Obstetricians advice.

I've been having lower abdomen pain and my USG and CT scan showed endometriosis and likely adenomyosis. The doctor suggested surgery but I'm unsure since I've been married for 5 years with no child yet. I take Droton DS for pain relief but I'm worried about what to do next. Can you advise if surgery is the best option or are there other treatments to consider first?
Surgery is one option for endometriosis and adenomyosis, but fertility-focused medical management may be considered first—consult a gynecologist for tailored guidance.

I'm just a bit worried here. My girlfriend and I had unprotected sex last night, and we read somewhere that eating papaya can help prevent pregnancy. She had some about 20 hours after we did it. Is there any truth to this? Can papaya actually help in preventing pregnancy?
