I'm in my first trimester and I'm really worried about stretch marks. I've heard about bio oil helping with them, but I'm unsure if it's safe to use right now. Can you give me some advice on whether it's okay to use bio oil at this stage in my pregnancy?

Yes, you can use Bio-Oil for stretch marks during pregnancy. It is safe to use and can help improve the appearance of stretch marks. Apply Bio-Oil twice daily in a circular motion until fully absorbed.

I'm planning to start a clinic and lab in a month and I'm in need of a few doctors. Specifically, I'm looking for a radiologist, a general physician, dentists, and a gynecologist. Could you share some advice on how to find the best candidates and any key qualities I should look for in these roles?

Don't worry, it's normal to experience on-and-off morning sickness symptoms during early pregnancy. Hormonal fluctuations can cause varying levels of nausea and vomiting. Since you had a recent ultrasound confirming a healthy fetal heartbeat, it's likely that your symptoms are just subsiding temporarily. However, to alleviate your concerns, consider scheduling a follow-up ultrasound to reassess the pregnancy.

What is a detailed description of a Fallopian tube?

Your fallopian tubes are a pair of hollow, muscular ducts located between your ovaries and your uterus. Each fallopian tube is a channel between your ovaries, where your body makes eggs, and your uterus, where a fertilized egg can develop into a fetus.
