I'm a bit concerned because I started drinking Safi in April and May, and now it's June and I still haven't gotten my period. I'm really using it to help with the pimples on my face, but now I'm worriedcould the Safi be messing with my periods? Is this something you've come across before?

I'm wondering if having typhoid can actually delay your periods. Also, could all the antibiotics and medicines I've been taking, plus the weakness from being sick, be affecting my cycle too?

Your periods are dependent upon the hormones in the body. The hormones can get imbalanced during the stress of an infection and there is reported cases of delay in such cases. But if it is delayed by more than 10 days, you should visit your gynecologist so that you can be examined and undergo investigations such as ultrasound, thyroid profile, etc. to find the underlying cause and have it treated accordingly. Keep yourself well hydrated, have a good and balanced nutrition and rest well to heal.

I'm concerned because I missed my double marker test but I did manage to get my NT scan right at the start of my 14th week. Are the results from this NT scan accurate at 14 weeks? My doctor mentioned doing the Triple Marker test at 16 weeks, but I'm wondering if the Triple Marker test is better than the Quadruple Marker test. I'm 35 now and really don't want to take any risks when it comes to my baby. Could you help me figure out the best steps to take from here?

The NT scan is a risk assessment tool, not a diagnostic test. It can't tell for sure if a baby has a problem, so another test is needed to confirm a diagnosis.The quadruple marker test is generally more sensitive than the triple marker test, and is recommended for women who are at higher risk of chromosomal abnormalities
