Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

Reproductive health education, including messages to encourage abstinence and promote the use of condoms and contraceptives by those who are sexually active, is the front line of efforts to prevent pregnancy, AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs)

I'm planning to get pregnant soon and I'm wondering if you could recommend a good brand of folic acid tablets? Also, when's the best time of day to take them?

As a doctor, I would recommend brands like "Folvite" or "Obstetrical Folic Acid" for folic acid supplementation before pregnancy. It's ideal to take the tablet in the morning with food to enhance absorption and reduce the risk of nausea.

I'm having trouble with getting wet during intimacy. Even when I'm in the mood, I just don't seem to produce natural lubricant. What can I do to help my body produce it naturally? I love being with my partner, so it's really frustrating. Also, I've noticed some wart-like things around my vaginal area. Any advice on how to treat these?

It sounds like you're experiencing dryness, which can happen for various reasons, including hormonal changes or stress. You might benefit from using a water-based lubricant to enhance comfort. For the warts, it's important to get them checked by a healthcare provider, as they may be caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), and treatment options are available. Please consult with a gynecologist for a proper evaluation and personalized advice.

I'm a bit worried and looking for some advice. My last period was on March 20, and on April 24, I noticed some pink discharge or spotting just once when I wiped. I've taken a few pregnancy tests, but they're really faint. Even though I've had my tubes tied for 2 years, I've heard that you can still get pregnant with that. Could you help me understand what's going on?

While your chance of pregnancy is significantly lower with tubal ligation, it is still possible, though rare. The faint line on your test may suggest pregnancy, but its best to confirm with a follow-up test or a visit to your doctor. If you do find out youre pregnant, your doctor can guide you through the next steps to ensure everything is progressing normally.
