I'm really concerned about my baby's health after our recent scan. At 12 weeks and 4 days, the NT scan measurement came back as 2.4mm, and the nasal bone is measuring 1.5mm. It's already been 24 hours since the scan, and I'm a bit anxious about whether these measurements are normal or if there's something I should be worried about. Could you please advise on what this could mean and if there are any steps we need to take?

I'm a pathologist and currently pregnant. I've had a 7-week ultrasound which showed a fetal heartbeat at 108 beats per minute and the baby's length is 6mm. From what I know, this all seems normal, but I'm aware that hCG is a schedule X drug. Given my situation, should I consider getting hCG injections?

If you suspect you've taken a double dose of EBAS 20, contact your doctor or pharmacist immediately for guidance.

I lost my hymen and want to get it reconstructed through surgery how does that work and is it safe? I'm really worried about the procedure and recovery, can you explain what to expect?

Hymen repair surgery, also known as hymenoplasty, is a simple procedure that will repair a torn hymen or build a hymen that is not present. It is important to understand that the surgery will not restore virginity, but it will allow for women to tear and bleed the first time they engage in intercourse after surgery.
