I'm a bit worried about something going on with my wife. She's 18 weeks pregnant, and for the past month, she's been experiencing these shivers in the middle of the night, like once a week. They only last a short time, maybe 30 seconds to a couple of minutes. She feels really cold when it happens, but then shes back to normal pretty quickly. Is this something we should be concerned about? Its only happened twice, but I just want to make sure everything's okay. What do you think?

View allI'm really worried about my irregular periods. Earlier this year, a doctor had me do a PCOD panel test, and while all my levels looked fine, the ultrasound showed Im slightly polycystic. I was on Meprate and then APCODOBIS for a couple of months, and they helped with my periods. But the moment I stopped, the irregularity came back. I'm also quite heavy for my age, weighing around 98 kgs, and I'm 5.5 tall. I know I need to focus on exercising and eating right, but my job has been so hectic that it's been tough to fit in time for that. Now, I'm ready to get serious about this. Could you give me some advice on how I can get my period this month and shed some weight over time?

Hey, I'm wondering if it's safe for me to take Orofer XT tonic for women. I've got low ferritin levels, but my hemoglobin is at 12. I came across a review that mentioned it could cause prolonged periods, and that kind of freaked me out. I don't have any symptoms at the moment. Can you help me figure out if it's okay for me to take it?
To prevent Rh incompatibility issues, administer Anti-D Immunoglobulin (Anti-D Ig) to the Rh-negative (O-) mother: - 1st dose: 300 mcg at 28-30 weeks of gestation - 2nd dose: 300 mcg within 72 hours of delivery (if baby is confirmed Rh-positive) This treatment helps prevent the mother's immune system from reacting to the baby's Rh-positive blood cells.

My aunt is 49 and has a bulky uterus measuring 17138 cm with multiple fibroids, the largest being 70mm. She's on medications but doesn't have excessive bleeding, pain, or other symptoms. How serious is this does she need surgery or can she keep managing with meds until menopause?
A 70mm fibroid in a bulky uterus (17138 cm, which seems to be a typo and is likely a measurement in a different unit, perhaps 171.38 cm) in a 49-year-old woman can be managed with medication if there are no symptoms or significant complications, especially as she approaches menopause. Surgery may be considered if symptoms worsen, if the fibroid grows rapidly, or if it causes complications like infertility or pelvic organ compression
