View allI'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?
Yes after 48 hrs the beta hcg leves should be more than double of previos value then you can confirm you have a healthy pregnancy

I'm wondering if it's possible for rubbing the clitoris too much to lead to bumps on the clitoral hood. I've been noticing these tiny, pinhead-sized bumps for about a year now, and there are only two of them. I'm sexually active and first noticed them after some intense rubbing. Also, I really enjoy masturbating and can spend a long time doing it. Could the vigorous rubbing be causing these bumps, or should I be worried about something else?
It is important to practice moderation and gentleness during masturbation to avoid such issues. As for the bumps on your clitoral hood, they may be due to irritation or even a minor infection. I recommend using an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment like Neosporin, applying it to the affected area twice a day for a week. Additionally, you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen to help with any discomfort. If the bumps do not improve or if you experience any worsening symptoms, it is important to see a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

Can someone with blocked fallopian tubes menstruate?
Yes, blocked fallopian tubes interfere with the passage of ovum and thus may lessen the chances of pregnancy. Menstruation occurs when one shreds a layer of uterus and blocked fallopian tubes may not interfere with it.
