I'm a bit confused and hoping you can help. My wife is 16 weeks pregnant now and her first trimester scan at 8 weeks showed a normal single live intrauterine pregnancy. She's currently staying at her mom's and we're trying to figure out by when she should have the second trimester anomaly scan. We want to plan her return and schedule it properly. Also, with all the talk about the outdated MTP Act in our country, we just want to be on the safer side in case any serious complications arise. Could you advise on this?

The Anomaly scan (second trimester scan) is typically performed between 18-22 weeks of gestation, so your wife should plan to return and schedule the scan around 18-20 weeks, i.e., within the next 2-4 weeks.

View allI'm a bit worried because I haven't had my periods for the last two months, and my doctor told me to take Duphaston 10mg for ten days. It's only been two days since I stopped taking the pills. I'm curious to know when I should expect my period to start. Is this normal?
-it's common to get your period within 3-7 days after stopping Duphaston, though it can vary a little. If you dont get your period within a week, follow up with your doctor to check for any underlying issues. Take care and dont stressits often

I'm 22 weeks pregnant and just got my anomaly scan done today. I'm a bit worried about whether everything looks normal. Is a fetal heart rate of 159 bpm okay or is it on the higher side?
Based on typical fetal development, at 22 weeks, normal parameters include a fetal heart rate between 110-160 bpm, so 159 bpm is within the normal range

I have ovarian cyst 5738mm with internal septation is this curable with medician or surgery
A large ovarian cyst (5738mm, which is 5.738 cm) with internal septation is unlikely to be curable with medication alone. surgery is needed for larger or persistent cysts, or those with concerning features like internal septation. While some cysts resolve spontaneously or with hormonal contraception, surgical removal (like a cystectomy) is often necessary for larger cysts or if there's suspicion of malignancy.
