Is it safe to get the second dose of Covaxin while I'm on my period, or should I wait for a few days?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It's safe to take the second dose of Covaxin during your period, as there are no contraindications. You can go ahead with the vaccination without delay. However, if you're feeling unwell or have heavy symptoms, it's okay to wait a few days and take it when you're more comfortable.

My mom is 45 and has a tumor-like growth in her uterus. One doctor said surgery isn't urgent and the lumps might shrink after her periods stop. Should we wait or is immediate surgery necessary? Just worried about what's best for her.
Myomectomy (my-o-MEK-tuh-me) is a surgical procedure to remove uterine fibroids — also called leiomyomas (lie-o-my-O-muhs). These common noncancerous growths appear in the uterus. Uterine fibroids usually develop during childbearing years, but they can occur at any age.

I'm 33 weeks pregnant and just had a sonography that showed the cord around the baby's neck. What should I do? Can you give me some advice?
Hello, 25% of babies are born with the cord around their neck one or more times. Most people hear the cord was around the neck and freak out thinking their baby could strangle. The thing we forget is they don't actually breathe inside the womb. They get their oxygen through the cord. The only way it could cause a problem is if the umbilical cord became so compressed that it completely cut off the cord blood flow. Which usually happens when you get labour contractions,, at that time doctors will monitor heart rate of baby, if heart is is dropping during contractions or Baby not able to headdown our doctor will go for cesarean section, if nothing unusual vaginal delivery can be expected. Talk you your doctor.
