I'm 17 days post-ovulation and my beta hCG level is 1000. Could this mean I'm expecting twins or triplets, or is it more likely just a single pregnancy? I was treated with ovulation induction this cycle and my pregnancy test came back positive. Could you provide some insight into what to expect?

I'm really worried because after taking an Unwanted 72 pill, I got my period 15 days early, and now it's the 8th day and I'm still bleeding. Is this normal, or should I be doing something about it?

I've been diagnosed with a few myoma tumors in my uterus and I'm really worried is surgery the only option or are there other treatments I can explore? I'd love to understand my choices better

MRI-guided focused ultrasound (FUS) is a noninvasive treatment option for uterine fibroids that destroys fibroids while preserving the normal uterus. Focused high-frequency, high-energy sound waves are used to target the proteins in fibroids, until they are destroyed.

Why should you not drink tea during menstruation?

All the teas contain some amount of tannic acid which in combination with our food reduces the absorption of iron in the body. So, drinking too much of it during periods may not only lead to malabsorption of iron in the body but may also cause headaches, irritability, insomnia, anxiety, restlessness, nervousness due to the caffeine present in the tea.
