I'm a bit worried because I accidentally took 2 Zandu Parad tablets a few weeks ago, and I'm currently one month pregnant. The tablets have mercury 30 mg and Khatika 60 mg in them. They're usually used in households for things like protecting grains. I haven't had any symptoms or felt unwell, but I'm concerned about any potential effects on my baby. Could there be any risks or side effects from this? Would love some advice on what I should do next.

if you have consumed it 20 days ago and now pregnant since one month(ie your last periods was around 12th of April I guess) then nothing to worry much as baby wasn't formed yet 20 days ago.. and moreover you consumed safe limit of mercury so only you dint have any symptoms.. if you still have worry then your usg at 10-12weeks wil tel if baby is normal or not as by then all parts of you baby will be formed well..if your stil anxious then consult your physician and obstetrician once..

My mom is 50 and has been having lower abdomen pain for days. Her USG scan shows a retroverted uterus and low lying prolapse. How serious is this and will she need surgery

A retroverted uterus and low-lying prolapse can cause lower abdominal pain and may or may not require surgery, depending on the severity and symptoms. A retroverted uterus (tilted backward) is common and often doesn't cause symptoms, but can sometimes be associated with pain, especially during menstruation or intercourse. Uterine prolapse, where the uterus descends into the vagina, can range from mild to severe and may cause discomfort or interfere with daily activities. Treatment options vary, with mild cases often managed with pelvic floor exercises and lifestyle changes, while more severe cases may require surgery.

I've been in a bit of a dilemma. So, I had unprotected sex with my husband on the third day of my period and decided to take the i-pill just to be safe. Now, my period is way overdue; it's been about 15 days late. I went to see a gynecologist, and she prescribed Meprate 10mg. But I'm unsure about what to do next. Should I just wait it out and see if my period comes naturally, even though it's delayed? Or should I go ahead and take the Meprate to kickstart my cycle? I'm also concerned if there might be any side effects if I start taking it. Will I end up having to rely on medication to get my period from now on? Could really use some advice here.

Misses periods is the common sideeffects of ipill. Don't take meprate as it would thicken ur internal lining which has already thickened by ipill causing further periods problem. Just wait u would eventually get ur periods as ipill has got a high success rate
