I'm 31 weeks pregnant and just got some blood work back. My SGOT is at 35, SGPT is 65, and alkaline phosphatase (AP) is at 167. Plus, my platelet count is 110. Should I be concerned about these results?

Your elevated SGPT (65) and low platelet count (110) may indicate a potential liver issue, such as preeclampsia or HELLP syndrome, which can be concerning during pregnancy, so it's essential to discuss these results with your obstetrician and closely monitor your condition to ensure the health and safety of both you and your baby.

I had unprotected sex on the 15th of May, the day after my period ended. I took an Unwanted 72 pill afterward, but then my period returned on the 19th of May and hasn't stopped since. I'm 19 years old and really worried about this. What should I do?

It seems like the unwanted 72 pill may have caused a hormonal imbalance leading to prolonged bleeding. I recommend you to take Tranexamic acid 500mg thrice a day for 3-5 days to help stop the excessive bleeding. If the bleeding persists or becomes heavy, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm feeling a bit worried about my wife's situation. She's three months pregnant, just at the start of her 14th week. We live in a building where our apartment is on the third floor, and there's no lift. Every weekday, she has to go down 60 steps in the morning to head to the office, and then back up those 60 steps again in the evening. Is it safe for her and the baby to be doing this every day, or could it have any negative effects on her pregnancy? I'd appreciate any advice on this.

yes she can do no worries
