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?

I'm 31 weeks pregnant and just got some blood work back. My SGOT is at 35, SGPT is 65, and alkaline phosphatase (AP) is at 167. Plus, my platelet count is 110. Should I be concerned about these results?

Your elevated SGPT (65) and low platelet count (110) may indicate a potential liver issue, such as preeclampsia or HELLP syndrome, which can be concerning during pregnancy, so it's essential to discuss these results with your obstetrician and closely monitor your condition to ensure the health and safety of both you and your baby.

I've been experiencing this red-black discharge in my vagina, and it keeps happening regularly about 15 days after my menstrual cycle. I'm feeling pretty worried about it. Could you help me understand what's going on?

The red and black discharge 15 days after your menstrual cycle could be due to various reasons such as ovulation, hormonal changes, or a minor vaginal injury; however, to rule out any underlying conditions like endometriosis, polyps, or infections, consult a gynecologist for a thorough examination
