I'm a bit worried because I haven't had my periods for 44 days now and I got a Beta Hcg test done yesterday which was 1.2 ml. My usual cycle is around 33 to 34 days. Could there still be a chance that I'm pregnant?

I'm about 6 weeks pregnant and noticed my hCG levels only increased from 4300 to 4500 over 4 days. I'm really worried that this might not be a good sign for the pregnancy's viability. Do you think taking hCG injections could help increase these levels more quickly?

I'm five months pregnant and my recent ultrasound, the TIFFA scan, showed that my baby's kidneys are swelling. I'm really worried. Is this a major problem? Are there things I can do to help reduce the swelling before the next scan?

The swelling in your baby's kidneys, detected during the TIFFA scan at 5 months, may indicate a condition like hydronephrosis or pyelectasis, which can be caused by a urinary tract obstruction or infection; while it's a concern, many cases resolve on their own, and with proper monitoring and care, the prognosis is often good; to reduce swelling and ensure the best possible outcome, follow your doctor's recommendations, attend all scheduled prenatal appointments, and maintain a healthy lifestyle, including staying hydrated, eating a balanced diet, and managing stress.
