I'm 22 weeks along in my first pregnancy, and after a recent scan, my cervical length measured 2.9 cm. At the NT scan, it was 3 cm. Should I be worried about this change in cervical length, or is it considered normal?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Cervical length of less than 3cm measured between 20-24 weeks of gestation is associated with preterm births and favours vaginal birth whereas, cervical length of more than 4cm is associated with postdated pregnancy and increased incidence of cesarean section.

View allI'm noticing a slight sensation, not exactly pain, when I bend to the left side of my lower abdomen. Any idea what could be causing this?
The slight sensation in your lower left abdomen while bending could be due to various reasons. Here are a few possibilities: 1. Digestive issues: Constipation, gas, or indigestion can cause discomfort in the lower abdomen. 2. Muscle strain: Bending can put strain on the abdominal muscles, leading to a sensation of tightness or discomfort. 3. Hernia: A small hernia in the abdominal wall can cause a sensation of discomfort or pressure when bending. 5. Kidney issues: A kidney stone or infection can cause discomfort in the lower abdomen, although this is often accompanied by pain. It's essential to consult a MD MEDICINE to determine the cause of the sensation and rule out any underlying conditions.

I'm taking primolut N to delay my periods because of a work emergency. My period was originally supposed to start around the 23rd or 24th of September. Today is the 22nd, and I'm on my second day with primolut N, but I'm noticing a light white-pinkish discharge. Is this normal? Should I keep taking primolut N? I really can't afford to get my period right now because it's usually very heavy.
It's normal to experience some spotting or discharge while taking this medication, especially in the initial days, as it can affect the lining of your uterus.If the discharge becomes heavier, or you experience any unusual symptoms like severe abdominal pain or heavy bleeding then consult the doctor

I'm a bit worried because I got my last period on July 23rd, but I still haven't gotten it again. I took a urine test, but it came back negative. I've started taking Cyclenorm E and P, 6 tablets per day for the past 2 days. How long does it usually take for periods to start after this?
your period may occur within 3-7 days. This can vary depending on your individual response to the medication. However, if your periods do not start within this time frame or if you experience any side effects, it is important to consult with your doctor.
