I'm 6 months pregnant and my gynecologist mentioned getting a cervical cerclage because I've had previous abortions. I've been having stomach and groin pain. I also had an ASD device closure in October 2020 and am currently taking Ecosprin 75. Do you think it's safe for me to proceed with the cervical cerclage? Could there be any complications I should be aware of?

This procedure can help prevent premature birth and reduce the risk of complications during pregnancy. To help with the pain in your stomach and groin, you can take Paracetamol 500mg as needed for pain relief. Since you are already taking Ecosprin 75, continue taking it as prescribed by your doctor to prevent blood clots and improve blood flow to the placenta. Make sure to follow your gynecologist's advice and attend all recommended prenatal check-ups for a safe and healthy pregnancy.

I'm a new mom with a 4-month-old baby, and I'm breastfeeding. I'm worried about finding a safe emergency contraceptive pill that won't affect my breast milk. Could you let me know if options like ipill or Unwanted 72 are safe to use while I'm nursing?

For breastfeeding mothers, the World Health Organization recommends using progestin-only emergency contraceptive pills (ECPs), such as Ulipristal acetate (not available in India) or Levonorgestrel (available in India as Unwanted-72 or similar formulations), which are safer than combined estrogen-progestin pills like i-pill; however, it's essential to consult your GYNAECOLOGIST before taking any ECP while breastfeeding.
