I'm 30 weeks pregnant and dealing with a really bad cough and cold. My doctor gave me histarine taxim o and perizole, but I'm worried about whether these are safe for my baby. Can you let me know if I should be taking these?

The medications prescribed by your doctor, Histarine (antihistamine), Taxim-O (cefotaxime, an antibiotic), and Perizole (metoclopramide, an antiemetic), are generally considered safe during pregnancy

I'm a 20-year-old girl and I've been having some irritation in my private area. This year on February 29th, I had my first sexual experience with my partner. At first, he didn't use a condom, but then he did for the rest. It was really painful, and I even bled a bit. After about 5 minutes the pain stopped and I started to enjoy it. I took some emergency contraception because I was worried about pregnancy. But the day after, the pain came back. Then we had sex again with a condom on March 4th, and I ended up taking emergency contraception again. About 15 days after that, I started experiencing the pain more regularly, especially on days I wear tight jeans. Is this normal or should I be worried?

,it may be Vulvodynia, a unexplained pain or discomfort in the vulva(vaginal opening) area that typically strikes women between ages 18 and 25 and lasts more than three months. Symptoms include chronic burning, stinging, knifelike pain, rawness or irritation that comes and goes. The pain can interfere with sex, tampon insertion, and even make wearing undergarments or pants intolerable. So next time avoid tight jeans,, practice foreplay before sex and Vagina need to be ready (wet with vaginal secretion) before insertion of penis.

Which delivery is more painful?

Vaginal delivery is the most common and safest type of childbirth.

These discomforts can last for several months. There is an increased risk for rupture of the C-section scar during subsequent deliveries and subsequent pregnancies.
