I've been diagnosed with an ectopic pregnancy at 6 weeks and my doctor prescribed a 100mg Methotrexate injection, which I took today around 4pm. Since then, I've had constant but bearable pain is this normal? I really want to avoid surgery. Can I take any painkillers for this? Would appreciate your advice.

I'm really confused and could use some advice. Is it okay for girls to eat eggs and drink milk while on their periods? I've heard a lot of mixed opinions about it, and it's making me worry about what I should or shouldn't be eating during that time. Is there any truth to these claims, or is it safe to include them in my diet? Would love some insight to clear up this confusion!

I'm trying to understand what Susten 300 tablets are used for. Are they meant to help with getting my period on track or are they more for supporting pregnancy? I'm a bit confused about this and would really appreciate some guidance.

Susten 300mg contains progesterone, which is a endogenous hormone in the human body. It can be used in various conditions, including to support early pregnancy or for the treatment of dysmenorrhea (irregular periods).

I had laparoscopic surgery 25 days ago to remove a cyst from my left ovary and I'm on a 3-month course of medication. The wounds have healed and I don't have any pain now. Since I'm a dance student, I really need to get back to practice when would it be safe for me to start dancing again?

You may resume dance 4‚Äì6 weeks after laparoscopic cyst surgery, but get clearance from your surgeon first. Avoid high-impact moves early on.
