I'm 29 and dealing with an allergic cough, so I've been taking Montelukast and Omnacortil. Now that I'm pregnant, I'm a bit worriedcan I keep taking these meds? Other treatments haven't been very effective for me. Is it safe for my baby?

It's important to consult your doctor before continuing Montral and Omnacortil during pregnancy. While they may help manage symptoms, both medications have potential risks for the baby. Your doctor can suggest safer alternatives to manage your allergic cough during pregnancy.

I used candid powder to treat a vaginal yeast infection, and I even applied it inside. Should I be worried about any potential side effects from doing this?

My wife has been dealing with an endometriosis cyst for over a year now. We tried allopathy first and then switched to Siddha medicine for the past 9 months it's helped but hasn't fully cured her. I'm wondering if Ayurveda and Siddha use similar treatments or if switching to Ayurveda might give better results. Is there any guarantee that Ayurveda can completely cure it? We really want to avoid surgery and are exploring alternative treatments. What would you suggest?
