I'm really concerned because my wife, who's 6 weeks pregnant, had a bad toothache last night and ended up taking Zerodol SP. She's pretty worried now. Is that safe?

Testicular pain and size discrepancy can be concerning.
Possible Causes
- Hydrocele: Fluid accumulation in the testicle, causing swelling.
- Varicocele: Enlarged veins in the scrotum, leading to swelling and pain.
- Orchitis: Inflammation of the testicle, often due to infection.
- Epididymitis: Inflammation of the epididymis, a tube behind the testicle.
- Testicular torsion: A medical emergency where the testicle twists, cutting off blood flow.
Next Steps
- Consult a urologist: Schedule an appointment with a urologist to evaluate your symptoms.
- Physical examination: A urologist will perform a physical examination to assess your testicles.
- Imaging tests: Your urologist may order imaging tests, such as an ultrasound, to evaluate your testicles.
- Treatment: Depending on the diagnosis, treatment may include medication, surgery, or other interventions.
When to Seek Emergency Care
- Severe pain: If you experience sudden, severe pain in your testicles.
- Swollen or tender testicle: If your testicle is severely swollen or tender.
- Fever: If you have a fever over 101.5F (38.6C).
- Vomiting: If you experience vomiting or nausea.

My wife recently gave birth to a baby girl a few months ago, and we're thinking about spacing out our next child. Weve heard about the copper T when it comes to birth control, but were not exactly sure when we should get it inserted. Could you provide some guidance on this?
You can consider getting the Copper T inserted around 6-8 weeks postpartum, once your body has had some time to recover and after your first postpartum checkup. Its important to consult your doctor to ensure its the right choice for you and to discuss timing based on your health and preferences.
