I'm 29 weeks pregnant and recently moved to stay with my mom. My new doctor here advised me not to take Ecosprin, but my previous doctor had prescribed me Ecosprin 150 mg after my double marker test showed something about FGR before 37 weeks with a 1 in 643 ratio. Now, I'm confused about whether I should continue taking Ecosprin or not, and if I do take it, when should I stop? I'm really unsure about what to do and would appreciate your guidance.

It's understandable to feel confused. Given your doctor's advice to stop Ecosprin, its important to follow the current recommendation. The initial prescription of Ecosprin might have been due to specific risk factors, but if your new doctor feels it's not necessary, trust their expertise. You can clarify the exact timing for stopping the medication during your next appointment.

I'm living in the Czech Republic and recently had a laparoscopic myomectomy. It was on February 23rd, and I just got home from the hospital after 5 days. The surgery was a bit tricky because the fibroid was quite large, about 7cm, and I ended up losing 1000ml of blood. The surgeon mentioned I should wait about a year before trying to conceive so that the scar has enough time to heal. I'm curious about what I should expect post-surgery, specifically concerning my menstrual cycle. Also, my belly seems a little swollen, almost like I've gained weight, and I'm puzzled about what's causing it. Is it okay for me to start doing yoga? And should I continue taking Folic acid tablets? Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.
