Exercises that target pelvic floor muscles are to be done.To find your pelvic floor muscles, stop urinating in midstream or tighten the muscles that keep you from passing gas. Both actions use your pelvic floor muscles. Once you've identified your pelvic floor muscles, you can exercise them in any position. However, you might find it easier to do them lying down at first. Tighten your pelvic floor muscles, hold for three seconds and then relax for three seconds. Try it a few times in a row. When your muscles get stronger, try doing Kegel exercises while sitting, standing or walking. For best results, focus on tightening only your pelvic floor muscles. Be careful not to flex the muscles in your abdomen, thighs or buttocks. Avoid holding your breath. Instead, breathe freely during the exercises. Repeat three times a day. Aim to do at least three sets of 10 repetitions a day.

I'm a little worried and curious if I might get pregnant. The doctor prescribed Siphene for 5 days, which I've already taken. We had a relationship after that. Do you think there's a chance I could be pregnant?

Taking Siphene (Clomiphene) for 5 days can help stimulate ovulation, increasing the chances of pregnancy if you have had intercourse during your fertile window. However, pregnancy is not guaranteed, as it depends on various factors like egg quality, sperm health, and timing. Keep monitoring your cycle and consult your doctor for further guidance.
