I've been having infections in the vaginal area with stool leaking from there too. Doctors said it's a rectovaginal fistula and recommended surgery. Can this surgery be done laparoscopically or what are the other options? I'm really worried about the recovery and how effective it is

I've been trying to get pregnant for the last 5 months and even saw a doctor back in April. All my blood tests came back normal, and I've been taking folic acid cor3 and amycordial syrup for a couple of months now. My period was 3 days late this time, and I really thought I might be pregnant, but then I noticed a brown discharge in the morning with some white clots. The blood flow seems really thick. I'm just wondering what could be going on and if there's anything I should be doing differently?

Sometimes even in normal individuals due to action of anticoagulants in the body during heavy menstrual bleeding clots can be seen.....apart from this clots and discharge can be seen in certain uterine abnormality like fibroids in uterus,adenomyosis, endometriosis or hormonal imbalance like thyroid hormone imbalance or oestrogen-progestrone imbalance might also be a cause.this things need investigations like transvaginal ultrasound to ruleout the uterine abnormality. Hormone profile to ruleout any imbalance and most of the times the condition is treatable. So kindly consult a gynecologist for further management to ruleout this things.

I'm 34 weeks pregnant and trying to understand some terms from my latest scan results. Can you explain what these foetal growth parameters mean? Like, what do 'bpd 86 mm', 'hc 312 mm', 'fl 69 mm', and 'ac 304 mm' indicate about my baby's growth? And, it says the estimated foetal weight is 2.5 kg, which sounds reassuring, but is that an average weight for this stage? Also, my amniotic fluid is normal with an AFI of 12 and the placenta is posterior with grade 2 maturity in the upper segment. They're saying there are no obvious anomalies now, and something about the Doppler study of the umbilical artery with terms like 'psv 36 cms' and 'edv 15 cms', and other readings like 'pi 0.84', 'sd 2.3', and 'diastolic filling good'. What do these mean for my baby? It also mentions the uterine artery on the right, and the foetal mca Doppler trace is within normal limits. I'm a bit confused about what all these mean, especially when they mention things like a single live foetus with a vertical lie and low head position. It sounds like everything is okay, but no IUGR and no cord around the babys neck are mentioned too. Could you help clarify all this for me?

-Your 34-week ultrasound report shows that your baby is growing well with normal measurements: Biparietal diameter (BPD) of 86 mm, head circumference (HC) of 312 mm, femur length (FL) of 69 mm, abdominal circumference (AC) of 304 mm, and an estimated weig
