I'm currently 22 weeks pregnant and my anomaly scan showed my cervical length at 3.14 cm. My doctor has prescribed me gestofit 300 mg for 30 days as a progesterone supplement. Is this safe for me and the baby? Will it help increase my cervical length? I'd love some advice.

Gestofit 300 mg (progesterone supplement) is generally considered safe for you and your baby, and may help improve cervical length and reduce preterm birth risk, but closely monitor your condition and follow-up with your doctor to adjust the treatment plan as needed.

View allI'm curious about the safety of oral sex with my partner. We've never been with anyone else, and we're both in good health. We're interested in exploring this intimately in our marriage, but we want to know if it's safe for our health, especially since we're quite health-conscious. Could you advise us on this?
Oral sex is generally safe for a healthy, monogamous couple with no history of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Since both of you are medically fit, there is minimal health risk.
