Dog Bite from Fully Vaccinated Dog _General Guidelines_ 1. _Low risk_: Since your dog is fully vaccinated, the risk of rabies transmission is low. 2. _Post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP)_: However, it's essential to take precautions to minimize the risk of rabies transmission. _Recommended Actions_ 1. _Wash the wound_: Immediately wash the bite wound with soap and water. 2. _Apply antiseptic_: Apply an antiseptic cream or solution to the wound. 3. _Monitor your dog's behavior_: Keep a close eye on your dog's behavior for the next 10-14 days. If your dog shows any signs of illness or unusual behavior, seek veterinary attention immediately. 4. _Consult a doctor_: As a precautionary measure, consult a doctor to assess the risk of rabies transmission. They may recommend: a. _Observation_: Monitoring your condition for a few days to ensure no symptoms develop. b. _PEP_: Administering post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) as a precautionary measure, although this is unlikely given your dog's vaccination status. _Rabies Vaccination_ 1. _Unlikely necessary_: Given your dog's full vaccination status, rabies vaccination for you is unlikely necessary.

I'm trying to understand my recent Total BhCG quantitative report after our first IUI attempt. It says 1.2 mIUmL, and I'm a bit confused about what this means. We've been trying to conceive naturally for four years now, so this is all quite new to me...

Total B-hCG quantitative report of <1.2 mIUmL indicates a negative result for pregnancy. The level of hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) in the blood is typically detectable in early pregnancy, with levels rising as the pregnancy progresses. A level of <1.2 mIUmL suggests that there is no detectable hCG in your blood, indicating that the IUI procedure did not result in pregnancy this time.
