I'm 5 weeks pregnant and accidentally ate some raw papaya, and I heard it's not safe during pregnancy. What should I do now?

There is no recorded evidence that papaya would cause problems during pregnancy,no need to worry you can forget about it,if you notice any spotting or pain abdomen visit your doctor for evaluation and appropriate managemnet.

View allI'm having these really painful vaginal pimples since the start of this month. They look like normal pimples, disappear after about a week, but then come back again after 2 or 3 days. This has already happened to me three times within this month. Is this something normal, or should I see a gynecologist about it?
