I'm 31 weeks along and my baby's weight is 1.5 kg. Is this normal? My doctor mentioned that it's less than expected for this stage. Should I be worried?

I'm curious if there's any medication for women that can help enhance stamina and sustain performance when being intimate, maybe something to take an hour before. Also, is it advisable or safe to engage in intimacy four times a day, and are there specific drugs for that? I've been wondering about this and thought I'd ask.

For improving sexual stamina, some women may benefit from **l-arginine** supplements, which can enhance blood flow, or **ginseng** for increased energy. However, it's important to consult a healthcare provider before starting any medication or supplement, as individual needs and health conditions vary. Regular communication with a partner and relaxation techniques also play an important role in improving intimacy.

I'm in my first month of pregnancy, and my doctor prescribed Ecosprin 75 for me, which I find a bit confusing since I don't have any heart issues. I do have hypothyroidism, though, and I'm currently taking a 100mg Electroxin tablet. I'm also breastfeeding my older child, so I'm a bit worried because my doctor hasn't changed my thyroid medication dosage. Could you help me understand why this might be the case?

Ecosprin 75 is often prescribed in early pregnancy to help prevent blood clotting and improve blood flow to the placenta, even if you don't have heart problems. As for your thyroid medication, your doctor may feel your current dosage is still sufficient for both pregnancy and breastfeeding, but they will monitor your thyroid levels and adjust the dose if necessary.
