If your baby is born between 34 and 36 weeks gestation, he or she is considered "late preterm. Most premature babies develop normally with no serious long-term problems.

I took a Plan B pill recently, and now I'm experiencing a lot of pain on the outside of my vagina. It also feels really dry on the outside but not on the inside. Is this normal? Should I be worried or do anything to help with the discomfort?

Plan B contains a high dose of levonorgestrel, a synthetic hormone that can affect your body temporarily. This can cause side effects like vaginal dryness, discomfort, or even irritation in some cases.It's likely that the pain is temporary and related to the hormonal effects of Plan B, but if you have any concerns or if the symptoms don't improve, definitely reach out to your healthcare provider.

My 40-year-old mom has three kids and was diagnosed with fibroids. The doctor says it's nothing to worry about right now, but we're still concerned. Can fibroids shrink with medication, or is surgery the only option? We'd really appreciate some clarity on this.

Fibroids may shrink with medication, but if they cause significant symptoms or complications, surgery may become necessary. A second opinion from a gynecologist could help clarify the best course of action.

I've been dealing with some itching in my vulva and tried using Candid B, but it hasn't really helped. It's not because of any white discharge, but I noticed some redness there too. I've also got this itching between the skin that connects my anus and vagina. What could be causing this and how can I get some relief?

That could be bacterial or fungal vaginitis,visit your Gynaecologist for appropriate management.
