What's the right dose of methotrexate tablets for ectopic pregnancy if I want to skip surgery? I'm really worried and need to know how much to take safely.
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Methotrexate is used to treat ectopic pregnancy in certain cases. The typical dosage is 50mg/m², but it’s crucial to follow your doctor’s guidance to avoid complications. Surgery may still be required if the medication doesn't resolve the issue.

I have an 8cm ovarian cyst and really want to avoid surgery are there any medicines that can shrink or remove it? I'm worried about the size and hoping for non-surgical options.
While some ovarian cysts naturally resolve without treatment, an 8cm cyst might require medical intervention. There isn't a specific medication to shrink or remove an existing ovarian cyst. However, certain medications can help manage symptoms and potentially prevent new cysts from forming. If the cyst is causing pain, discomfort, or other issues, or if it's not a functional cyst, surgery (laparoscopy or open surgery) may be recommended

I've got a couple of things on my mind. I'm currently 23 weeks pregnant and wondering if it's okay to have bournvita milk during pregnancy? It really tastes good, and I'm curious if it's safe for my baby. Today, I had two tablespoons in warm milk for the first time and now I'm questioning if it's alright to keep having it throughout my pregnancy. Another thing, my ObGyn recommended Mothers Horlicks to me but I can't seem to find it anywhere, not even online. Do you have any suggestions for a substitute?
It's generally safe to have Bournvita in moderation during pregnancy, but keep in mind it contains sugar and added ingredients. 1-2 tablespoons with milk is fine, but you should be cautious not to overconsume. For a substitute for Mother's Horlicks, you can try other pregnancy-specific nutritional drinks like Ensure or Similac Mom, or consult your doctor for alternative options that meet your nutritional needs.
