My wife is facing some breathing issues since last one month. She is not able to complete her breath or feels short of breath and sometimes she has excessive yawning but cannot complete her yawn. In between for one week she was fine but again the same problem started. She also missed her period last month. Six months back she had a medical abortion. Today she had a blood test but her blood sample seemed to be a little dark in colour instead of bright red. We are waiting for the blood report. Kindly advise what could be the reason for this?

Symptoms could suggest hormonal imbalance, early pregnancy, or anxiety related issues. Check for anemia, thyroid, or cardiac causes. Wait for test reports.

Can I get a blood test on the 6th day after my embryo transfer, mam? I have no symptoms and am in the 2 week wait, so I am anxious about the results.

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I am 28 years old and just took a pregnancy test, which came back positive. I am feeling very anxious, extremely tired, and drowsy. I already have one child, 4.5 years old. Could you please advise what steps I should take next and any precautions I should follow at this stage?
