Smoking can slow down and interfere with the healing of bones, skin and other body tissues. You are more likely to have wound infection after surgery, longer healing times, problems with new scars opening up and bad scarring. And there are lot of other complications from smoking,,, please quite smoking.

It mentioned fatty infiltration and hepatomegaly. Does this mean anything serious for my liver health? They also noted bilateral polycystic ovarian morphology.

I'm dealing with loose motions right now and it's really tough to keep eating the same things like khichdi, daliya, and poha every meal. I also can't have curd rice because I've got a cough. Could you recommend any other foods that would be suitable for breakfast, lunch, and dinner?

Based on the provided ultrasound results, your pregnancy appears normal. As a pathologist, you're aware of hCG's role. Given the normal fetal heartbeat (108 bpm) and length (6mm), hCG injections are likely unnecessary. Continue monitoring your pregnancy with your healthcare provider.
