So I had a scan at 8 weeks, and they saw an empty sac, no yolk sac, no fetal pole. I've just done a repeat scan, and now there's a yolk sac measuring 3.5mm. Should I just hang in there a bit longer, or does this mean it's not going to work out? Is there any chance things might turn around? My last menstrual period was on November 24, 2020.

Persistent Fever: Next Steps and Zocef Evaluation
Given your symptoms, it's essential to monitor your condition and adjust your treatment plan accordingly.
Zocef (Cefuroxime) Evaluation:
- Zocef is a broad-spectrum antibiotic, effective against bacterial infections.
- Since your throat pain and cold have subsided, the antibiotic might be targeting a underlying bacterial infection.
Recommended Actions:
- Complete the antibiotic course: Finish the prescribed Zocef course to ensure the infection is fully cleared.
- Monitor fever and phlegm: Keep track of your temperature and phlegm production. If fever persists or worsens, consult your doctor.
- Consider additional tests: If fever persists, your doctor may recommend additional tests, such as a chest X-ray or blood cultures, to rule out other conditions.
- Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of fluids to help your body recover.
Consult Your Doctor If:
- Fever persists or exceeds 103F (39.4C).
- Phlegm production increases or becomes discolored.
- You experience shortness of breath, chest pain, or severe headache.
By completing the antibiotic course and monitoring your symptoms, you'll be able to effectively manage your condition and prevent potential complications.

I'm kinda worried because I've noticed some white discharge coming from my vagina and a line of black hair growing from my abdomen downwards. Im wondering, can just kissing on the lips lead to pregnancy?

My mother has been dealing with recurring bleeding for the past 5 years, and it keeps happening every year. Each time, medications like Pause MF or Sevista stop the bleeding, but now the doctor prescribed Pause MF and Deviry 10mg. The doctor is suggesting open surgery to remove her uterus instead of laparoscopy. I've attached the reports what would you recommend in this situation? Is open surgery the only option or could laparoscopy still be considered?
It's understandable to be concerned about your mother's recurring bleeding and the potential for surgery. While an open hysterectomy (removing the uterus) is a definitive solution, laparoscopy (a minimally invasive procedure) should also be considered. If the underlying cause of the bleeding is not completely resolved, open surgery might be necessary, but it's crucial to explore other options first, especially if your mother isn't yet ready for menopause.
