I'm looking for advice on safe ways to prevent pregnancy aside from using condoms. Could you share some options that are completely risk-free and safe?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Aside from condoms, the most reliable and safe methods to avoid pregnancy include hormonal birth control (like birth control pills, patches, or implants), intrauterine devices (IUDs), and permanent solutions like sterilization. It's important to consult your doctor to choose the method best suited to your health and lifestyle.

View allCan medicine help clear a tubal blockage or is surgery like laparoscopy the only option? I'm really worried and would appreciate some advice on what might work best for my situation
There are no specific medications to treat fallopian tube blockages directly. However, if the blockage is caused by an infection, antibiotics or other treatments may be prescribed to address the underlying cause. Medication may also be used alongside surgical or assisted reproductive treatments.

I'm a 37-year-old woman and recently I had a lot of vaginal discharge with some itching, so my doctor gave me clingen forte vaginal capsules. I finished the whole treatment and I'm not having those symptoms anymore. But now I'm five days late for my period, and I'm wondering if its possible that clingen forte could be causing this delay?
there is no evidence that use of clingen forte suppositiries delay periods . But if u are a sexually active person would advise to go for a urine pregnancy test and if it comes negative to go ahead with a b hcg blood test that will be definitive of ruling out any pregnancy. In case both negative then it would be advised to visit the gynaecologist for further treatmen
