A woman can get pregnant and have a baby as soon as she begins ovulating, or producing eggs. This typically occurs about a year after they first begin menstruating, which usually happens between the ages of 11 and 12. Some women start ovulating late, though, and others, extremely early.

Pregnancy Possibility:
A 7-year-old female cannot get pregnant because her body has not yet gone through puberty, which is necessary for ovulation and menstruation.
Physical Development:
At this age, the reproductive system is not mature enough to support pregnancy.
Health Considerations:
Pregnancy at such a young age would be extremely dangerous and is not biologically possible under normal circumstances.
Recommendation:
If there are concerns about development or health, consult a pediatrician for personalized advice and support.

Question

I'm a bit worried because I put T Minic drops in my 4-month-old baby's nose and she cried afterward. She eventually calmed down, but could this be something I should be worried about?

My 1-month-old son has a bigger belly button that's about 2 cm in height. Also, his right testicle sometimes swells up to almost double the size of the left one. The doctor says it might go away on its own within a year or else he'll need surgery. I'm really worried do these issues usually resolve by themselves?

Question

I'm really worried about my 15-year-old daughter. Can I give her Dolo 650 for her fever or menstrual pain? I'm just concerned if that's too high of a dosage for her. Would love your advice!
