I recently had unprotected sex and needed an emergency pill, but I couldn't find i pill or Unwanted 72 in Hyderabad. Are these pills banned everywhere now? The pharmacist offered me something called i doz 72 instead. Is this the same thing as the others? Is it safe to take?

i-Pill and Unwanted-72 are not banned in India, but availability issues may occur; i-Doz 72, containing levonorgestrel 1.5mg, is an alternative emergency contraceptive pill, considered safe and effective when taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex, with similar efficacy to i-Pill and Unwanted-72.

It's been a couple of days since the doctor inserted a tablet into my vagina, and I'm wondering when I should expect the bleeding to start. Are the retained products likely to come out with my first menstrual cycle? I'm really hoping to pass these retained products naturally. They measured 9cc. Any advice you could give would be great.

I'm reading my medical report, and it mentions that I have a bulky uterus with a few small intra-mural fibroids and a nabothian cyst in my uterine cervix. I'm really curious about what this means and if there's anything I should be worried about. Could you help explain these terms to me in a way thats easy to understand and let me know if it might affect my health or require any specific treatments?

Your ultrasound suggests a bulky uterus, which can sometimes occur due to factors like fibroids. The small fibroids in the muscle wall of the uterus are typically benign. A nabothian cyst on the cervix is also common and generally harmless. It's important to monitor these, but they usually dont cause major issues unless symptoms arise.

My wife is currently 20 weeks pregnant and we're a little concerned after her recent tiffa scan. It showed a white spot on the baby's heart. Could this be something to worry about? What might cause this kind of spot to appear? We would really appreciate some guidance on this.

The white spot seen on the baby's heart during a prenatal ultrasound, also known as an echogenic intracardiac focus, is a common finding. In most cases, it is a benign and harmless condition that does not cause any issues with the baby's heart function. It is often seen as a normal variant and typically resolves on its own without any treatment. However, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and monitoring to ensure that there are no other associated abnormalities. In most cases, no specific treatment is needed for this finding. If there are any concerns about the baby's heart development, your healthcare provider may recommend additional tests or monitoring. It is always best to discuss any findings or concerns with your healthcare provider for personalized guidance and recommendations.
