I'm in my first month of pregnancy, and my doctor prescribed Ecosprin 75 for me, which I find a bit confusing since I don't have any heart issues. I do have hypothyroidism, though, and I'm currently taking a 100mg Electroxin tablet. I'm also breastfeeding my older child, so I'm a bit worried because my doctor hasn't changed my thyroid medication dosage. Could you help me understand why this might be the case?

Ecosprin 75 is often prescribed in early pregnancy to help prevent blood clotting and improve blood flow to the placenta, even if you don't have heart problems. As for your thyroid medication, your doctor may feel your current dosage is still sufficient for both pregnancy and breastfeeding, but they will monitor your thyroid levels and adjust the dose if necessary.

I'm a 20-year-old girl and I've been having some irritation in my private area. This year on February 29th, I had my first sexual experience with my partner. At first, he didn't use a condom, but then he did for the rest. It was really painful, and I even bled a bit. After about 5 minutes the pain stopped and I started to enjoy it. I took some emergency contraception because I was worried about pregnancy. But the day after, the pain came back. Then we had sex again with a condom on March 4th, and I ended up taking emergency contraception again. About 15 days after that, I started experiencing the pain more regularly, especially on days I wear tight jeans. Is this normal or should I be worried?

,it may be Vulvodynia, a unexplained pain or discomfort in the vulva(vaginal opening) area that typically strikes women between ages 18 and 25 and lasts more than three months. Symptoms include chronic burning, stinging, knifelike pain, rawness or irritation that comes and goes. The pain can interfere with sex, tampon insertion, and even make wearing undergarments or pants intolerable. So next time avoid tight jeans,, practice foreplay before sex and Vagina need to be ready (wet with vaginal secretion) before insertion of penis. Taking I pill also cause irregular pain and bleeding for many days or even weeks,, please avoid them next time, use condoms or Copper - T for unwanted pregnancy. And bleeding and pain after first time sex is common due to hymen tear.

I'm an expecting mom and I'm really hoping to have a healthy baby. I've been trying my best to eat nutritious foods and drink plenty of healthy juices. I'm curious if there's any truth to the idea that you can follow a special diet during pregnancy to help ensure a fair-skinned baby. Can you help clarify if there's anything specific I should be doing or eating?

There is no such specific diet,as you are on healthy diet your baby will be healthy don't worry
