I'm four months pregnant and I'm wondering if having sex with precautions is safe during this stage. Can you give me some guidance on this?

Yes, sex is generally safe during the fourth month of pregnancy as long as there are no complications and both partners are comfortable. It is important to use precautions to ensure safety for both the mother and the baby. You can use water-based lubricants and try different positions to ensure comfort. However, it is always recommended to consult with your obstetrician for personalized advice. In terms of precautions, it is important to avoid any pressure on the abdomen, use gentle movements, and communicate openly with your partner about any discomfort. If there are any concerns or complications, it is best to abstain from sex and consult with your healthcare provider.

I've used regestrone before to push back my periods, but I need some clarity on the right dosage. Last time, I think I was told to take one tablet a day starting three days before the period, but I'm uncertain about it. I've also read that some people take it three times a day. What's the recommended dosage for delaying periods?

To delay your periods, the recommended dosage of Regestrone (Norethisterone) is usually one tablet three times a day, starting 3 days before the expected date of your period. This regimen is typically continued until you are ready to have your period. So, the total daily dosage would be three tablets of Regestrone per day, taken at regular intervals. Remember to consult your Gynecologist before starting any new medication.
