I'm newly married and I've been thinking a lot about contraception lately. I'm really curious about the different methods and medicines available, but I'm also a bit worried about the side effects. Could you provide some advice on what options might be best for someone in my situation? It would be so helpful to know what to expect and any recommendations you might have.

I'm currently in my 35th week of pregnancy and just did a growth scan today. They said my placenta is at grade 1 maturity. Plus, my baby is positioned in the anterior upper segment. Should I be concerned about the placenta maturity grade at this stage? And is the baby's position in the anterior upper segment considered normal?

I'm 5 months pregnant and have this really intense headache. I'm just wondering if I can take CYCLOPAM TAB? I'm 29, and I'm worried about if it's safe to use while I'm pregnant. Are there any side effects I should know about?

Cyclopam tablets contain a combination of paracetamol, dicyclomine, and dimethicone, and while paracetamol is generally considered safe during pregnancy, dicyclomine is not recommended due to potential risks of fetal harm
