Question 1

My wife is facing some breathing issues since last one month. She is not able to complete her breath or feels short of breath and sometimes she has excessive yawning but cannot complete her yawn. In between for one week she was fine but again the same problem started. She also missed her period last month. Six months back she had a medical abortion. Today she had a blood test but her blood sample seemed to be a little dark in colour instead of bright red. We are waiting for the blood report. Kindly advise what could be the reason for this?

Question 2

Hello, my egg ruptured. Since then, I have had a slightly high body temperature, mild pain on the left side of my abdomen, a little headache, and back pain. Could I be pregnant? Can a pregnancy test be done just 3 days after ovulation? Please advise.

Question 3

Hi Doctor, I was married on 22nd July, and my period was due on 10th August. I did a home urine pregnancy test, which showed a positive result. Yesterday, we confirmed with a Beta HCG blood test, which showed a value of 4152 mIU/mL. Does this confirm my pregnancy, and how many weeks pregnant am I likely to be? I have attached the Beta HCG test report for your reference.

Is it necessary for the value of two beta hCG tests to increase in order to confirm a pregnancy? If both values are the same, what does it indicate? The tests were done 48 hours apart.
