I've been experiencing persistent itchiness in my vaginal area after my c-section. My OB-GYN prescribed Candid B, and it helped for a little while, but the itchiness keeps coming back. Could you give me some advice on what might be causing this and suggest any other treatments or steps I could take? I'm getting really concerned.

I'm a bit worried about the beta hCG levels during pregnancy. What should the levels be in a normal pregnancy compared to an ectopic pregnancy? Also, can beta hCG be detected in urine if someone has an ectopic pregnancy around 8 weeks?

In a normal pregnancy, beta hCG levels typically double every 48 hours, with average levels ranging from 50-300 mIUmL at 4-5 weeks, 1000-5000 mIUmL at 6-7 weeks, and 10,000-100,000 mIUmL at 8-12 weeks. In contrast, ectopic pregnancies often have lower and more slowly rising beta hCG levels, typically below 3000 mIUmL. As for detecting beta hCG in urine at 8 weeks of ectopic pregnancy, it's unlikely, as urine tests are generally less sensitive than blood tests, and ectopic pregnancies often have lower beta hCG levels.

I'm 22 weeks pregnant and I'm curious about whether I'm having a baby boy or girl since my urine pH is 6.5. I've been told I have an anterior placenta in the upper segment, and that my baby is on the left side. Can you tell me if any of these details might indicate the baby's gender?

I'm a bit worried because I've been having breathing issues for the past 1.5 years. I saw a pulmonologist and got some meds and inhalers, which have helped a bit. But now I'm thinking about getting pregnant and I'm concerned if this breathing problem might cause any complications during pregnancy. Can you shed some light on this?
