I'm 16 weeks pregnant and I've been dealing with this really annoying and severe cough that just won't go away. I'm worried if there's something safe I can take for it, and if this could possibly affect my baby. What should I do?

I'm having this persistent pain in my right side nipple that's been going on for over a month now, and it's really affecting my daily life. I got a USG done, and everything seemed clear, but I'm constantly feeling tired and there's always this mild pain. I'm currently on treatment which includes Asmitha and 21 Aciloc RD Primerose, but it doesn't seem to be working. Is there any specific screening for nipple health, not just breast checks? Sometimes it feels like there's something inside the nipple if there's no pain. I've already seen more than five gynecologists and I'm really stressed out about this. I'm unmarried, and I had one ovary removed three years ago. Could you suggest the next steps for screening or treatment that might help?

Considering your persistent right-sided nipple pain, fatigue, and mild pain despite normal ultrasound results and ongoing treatment, consult a breast specialist or a dermatologist for a thorough evaluation; additional screening tests, such as a ductogram, nipple discharge cytology, or a high-frequency ultrasound, may help identify the underlying cause; also, discuss the possibility of nipple thrush, eczema, or other dermatological conditions with your doctor, and explore alternative treatments, such as topical creams or antibiotics, to alleviate your symptoms and improve your quality of life.

I took an ipill on the 20th after having unprotected sex on the 19th and 20th. Now on the 27th, I'm experiencing vaginal bleeding. Is this normal?

Its common to experience vaginal bleeding after taking the i-pill, as it can affect your hormonal balance. This bleeding is usually a side effect and should stop within a few days. However, if it persists or you have concerns, its best to consult your doctor for further guidance.
