I'm in my second month of pregnancy, and yesterday I ate some papaya. My neighbors told me it could cause an abortion. I'm really worried about this. Is it true that eating papaya and pineapple can lead to a miscarriage?

Which ovary produces a girl?

There are few persons who believe that, the ovary of the right side yields ova which on fertilization develop as males, and the ovary of the left side yields ova which are potentially female but it is not scientifically proven. Development of female or male child depends on chromosome (X or Y) from father's sperm.

I've been having delayed periods, and my last one was on February 6th. I took a pregnancy test on March 19th, and it came back negative. My doctor suggested taking Cyclenorm E and P for two days, three times a day, which I started on March 20th. But its now March 24th, and I still havent gotten my period. There's just a little spotting. I'm kind of worried. What should I do about this?

your body might have not received enough dose, visit Gynaecologist for one more cycle of tablets.
