Im 9 weeks pregnant and just found out theres no heartbeat and the CRL is 3.4 mm. The doctor mentioned my baby might have died and suggested I get a DNC. Are there any other options or steps I should consider? I'm really worried and would appreciate any advice.

View allI'm having this persistent pain in my right side nipple that's been going on for over a month now, and it's really affecting my daily life. I got a USG done, and everything seemed clear, but I'm constantly feeling tired and there's always this mild pain. I'm currently on treatment which includes Asmitha and 21 Aciloc RD Primerose, but it doesn't seem to be working. Is there any specific screening for nipple health, not just breast checks? Sometimes it feels like there's something inside the nipple if there's no pain. I've already seen more than five gynecologists and I'm really stressed out about this. I'm unmarried, and I had one ovary removed three years ago. Could you suggest the next steps for screening or treatment that might help?
Considering your persistent right-sided nipple pain, fatigue, and mild pain despite normal ultrasound results and ongoing treatment, consult a breast specialist or a dermatologist for a thorough evaluation; additional screening tests, such as a ductogram, nipple discharge cytology, or a high-frequency ultrasound, may help identify the underlying cause; also, discuss the possibility of nipple thrush, eczema, or other dermatological conditions with your doctor, and explore alternative treatments, such as topical creams or antibiotics, to alleviate your symptoms and improve your quality of life.

I'm 14 weeks pregnant and just got my Dual Marker test and Ultrasound done. I'm looking at the results, and I'm a bit confused. The Age Risk for Trisomy 21 says 1546, and it shows Screen negative at 124906. There's also Trisomy 18 with Screen negative at 1100000. The Free BHCG is 14.1 IUL at 0.78 MOM, and the PAPP-A is 3.64 IUL at 0.99 MOM. The Ultrasound shows the yolk sac, CRL is at 78.8 mm, which matches 13 weeks and 6 days, NT measurement is 1.7mm, and the nasal bone is seen at 0.89 MOM. I'm really concerned about what all these numbers mean. Could my baby possibly have Down Syndrome based on these results, and what should my next steps be?
there is no cause for concern regarding the risk of Down syndrome or other chromosomal conditions in your baby. The next step would likely be a routine follow-up ultrasound and continued monitoring throughout your pregnancy. If you have further concerns or if your doctor feels it necessary, they might recommend more specific tests such as NIPT (Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing) or amniocentesis for more detailed risk assessment, but based on these results, that is generally not required.

I'm curious about whether oral sex is safe for my partner and me. We don't have any sexually transmitted diseases, so does that make it okay? Also, are there any good tips to keep in mind for oral sex?
it's not safe
