I've just started taking Primolut N 5 mg twice a day to delay my period, but it still began today. I'm not sure if I should keep taking the pills or stop. Is there any chance that my period might stop if I continue with them? And if I decide to quit, what happens with the two pills I've already taken? I'm really confused about what to do next.

Since your period has already started, its likely best to stop taking the Primolut-N. The tablets youve already taken may have a mild effect on the flow and duration, but they wont stop your period now. If you continue to have concerns or if you experience abnormal bleeding, its important to check with your doctor for personalized advice.

I'm 32 and expecting my second child, and I'm 5 weeks and 4 days along based on my scan. The scan didn't show the yolk sac yet, and my doctor said it might take up to 10 days more to see it. She mentioned it's normal for it to not be visible this early. Is this something I should be worried about, and when might I actually see the yolk sac and fetal pole?

based on your current gestational age, its likely that everything will be visible at your next scan in 10 days.

I'm expecting my period today or maybe tomorrow, but I'm thinking of taking Deviry 10mg twice a day right now to try and stop it. Will this definitely work? I'm just a bit unsure and want to know if it's the right thing to do.

it will work some time

I'm 34 weeks pregnant and getting really excited to meet my baby. Ive been thinking a lot about whether it's a boy or a girl, and while Im happy either way, I'm curious about something I heard. Is it true that you can predict a babys gender based on their heart rate?

As a doctor, I can reassure you that there is no scientific evidence to support the idea that a baby's heart rate can predict its gender. While some myths suggest a higher heart rate indicates a girl and a lower one a boy, it's just thatmyths. The heart rate varies for many reasons and isn't linked to gender. Just focus on enjoying your pregnancy, and your baby's health is what matters most!
