I'm really confused about what's going on with my pregnancy. I've always had irregular periods, but my last one was on February 3rd. I used a pregnancy kit on April 3rd, and it said negative. Later, I checked again on April 26th, and it turned out positive. My doctor recommended a beta HCG test, which came back at 141.3 mIUml, and now they're saying I need to repeat the test in two days. I'm worried and unsure about whether this means I have a healthy pregnancy or if something's wrong. Can you help me understand what this might mean?

How many days after period is safe?

The fertile days may last for up to 3-5 days after the end of your period. The chances of getting pregnant just after the period depend on how short the menstrual cycle is and how long the period lasts. If periods are long, women may only have a few days left after the period ends before fertile days begin.

I have intramural fibroids measuring 7cm and 4.5cm and I'm trying to plan for pregnancy. How much does laparoscopic surgery usually cost and is there any chance these can be treated with medication instead of surgery

Large intramural fibroids may affect fertility; meds can help shrink them, but laparoscopic removal may offer better outcomes.
