I'm almost 39 weeks pregnant and I've got these annoying red rashes around my belly that are super itchy. Im not sure if theyre from using a razor or what. Is it safe for me to take levocet to help with this? And would it be okay to try just one dose, given I could be heading to the hospital for delivery any day now?

My wife has an 18x17 mm submucous fibroid in the fundus region of her uterus, and it's indenting the endometrium. She's had four miscarriages in a row, all with bleeding between 6 to 12 weeks. Could this fibroid be causing the miscarriages? Would she need surgery to remove it?
