Its best to consult your pediatrician before using Smyle Ulcer Gel or any similar products on a child under 5 years old. The doctor may recommend alternative treatments that are both safe and effective for your childs age.

I'm really worried about my 14-month-old daughter; she's not walking yet, just crawling, and her weight seems quite low at 7.2 kg. She was 2.8 kg at birth. I'm not breastfeeding anymore and I've been giving her cow's milk along with soft food three times a day. She eats well, but she's having stools 2 to 3 times daily. The doctor recommended Bevcon syrup for a month, but I'm not sure if that's enough. Could you suggest what else I should consider or if there's another syrup that might help?

Congratulations on your recent marriage! A 26-27 day menstrual cycle is considered normal. Typical menstrual cycle length: 21-35 days. However, your recent weight gain (8kg in 3 months) may affect hormone levels and fertility. Consider: - Healthy eating habits - Regular exercise - Consult your gynecologist for personalized advice Maintaining a healthy lifestyle will benefit your overall well-being and reproductive health.

My 11-month-old son's foreskin doesn't fully retract, but he pees fine. Will this fix itself over time or will he need surgery? If surgery is needed, can we wait a year or two?

Physiologic phimosis often resolves by age 5; surgery can be delayed if urination is normal.
