I'm about 18 weeks pregnant right now and a bit worried. I had a D&C procedure just a couple of months before conceiving again and experienced a minor uterine prolapse after that. I already have a 3-year-old daughter who was a normal delivery. This time, they put me on Susten injections because of low progesterone for the first three months, and now I'm on weekly Prolin injections. A few days back, I noticed a drop of blood after urinating, and my doctor immediately started me on Duvadilan retard 40mg and the antibiotic Forcef. My CRP level is quite high at 10, but there doesn't seem to be any urine infection. I'm really anxiousare these medicines safe to take during pregnancy?

I recently took the emergency contraceptive pill, and I'm 17 years and 7 months old. I'm kind of worried, will it harm me? Also, I took it around the 50th hour after having sexwill it still be effective? And I'm curious, what are some common side effects of taking the pill? Can this make my period show up later than it usually does?

Taking an emergency contraceptive pill at 17 years 7 months old should not harm you. It is generally safe for use in adolescents. However, it is important to use it as directed. Taking the pill at the 50th hour after unprotected sex may reduce its effectiveness, but it can still work to prevent pregnancy. The general side effects of emergency contraceptive pills may include nausea, vomiting, fatigue, headache, breast tenderness, and changes in menstrual bleeding patterns. Your period may be delayed or earlier than usual after taking the pill. It is common for the menstrual cycle to be temporarily disrupted after using emergency contraception. To prevent any potential harm or unwanted side effects, it is important to use emergency contraceptive pills correctly and consider regular contraception methods for future protection.

I'm four months pregnant and I'm wondering if having sex with precautions is safe during this stage. Can you give me some guidance on this?

Yes, sex is generally safe during the fourth month of pregnancy as long as there are no complications and both partners are comfortable. It is important to use precautions to ensure safety for both the mother and the baby. You can use water-based lubricants and try different positions to ensure comfort. However, it is always recommended to consult with your obstetrician for personalized advice. In terms of precautions, it is important to avoid any pressure on the abdomen, use gentle movements, and communicate openly with your partner about any discomfort. If there are any concerns or complications, it is best to abstain from sex and consult with your healthcare provider.
