I'm 5 months pregnant and dealing with a really bad cold, cough, and throat pain. I'm worried about what medicines are safe to take for this. Can anyone help with advice on what's okay to use during pregnancy?

I recently got an ultrasound and found out that my ovaries are enlarged with lots of small cysts around the edges. One of my ovaries is 8mm3 in volume and the other is 10mm3. How serious is this? Is it something I should be worried about or need medical attention for? My periods have been on time and my thyroid levels are normal, so I'm a bit confused about what this means for my health.

I'm a bit concerned because my period is late by 12 days. I've been taking apple cider vinegar before bed every night. Could this be causing the delay? What should I do about it?

How many days after period can you not get pregnant?

You're most fertile at the time of ovulation (when an egg is released from your ovaries), which usually occurs 12 to 14 days before your next period starts. This is the time of the month when you're most likely to get pregnant. It's unlikely that you'll get pregnant just after your period, although it can happen.
