I'm hoping to get some clarity about something that came up in my sister's recent ultrasound. It mentioned a mild prominence of the bilateral pelvicalyceal system. I'm a bit concerned about what this actually means for the baby and how serious it could be. She's currently 6.5 months pregnant, and I'm wondering if there are any steps we should be taking at this point. Any advice would be appreciated!

mild prominence of bilateral pelvicalyceal system is typically not serious and often resolves naturally. However, it is important to follow up with your doctor for ongoing monitoring to ensure the babys kidneys are developing properly. After birth, if necessary, the baby may undergo further tests to assess kidney function.

I'm feeling really stressed out because I've been trying to have a baby for over a year now, and even though we're having intercourse almost every day, we haven't been successful. My husband's sperm test showed a count of 20 milml, and he's taking Addzoa supplements every afternoon. I'm confused about how much time we should wait between intercourse acts, especially during the middle of my cycle when I'm most fertile. I've had all my medical tests done, and everything looks fine, although I used to have irregular periods. I'm taking supplements for that, and they're regular now. Can you give me some guidance on how to increase my chances of conceiving? I'm really losing confidence.
