I'm really worried and hoping for some help. My doctor suggested my pregnant wife get Ovidac 5000 IU injections to help prevent a miscarriage. We managed to get one injection at a local store but we need two more for the next couple of weeks. I've already tried uploading the prescription, but our order got canceled. I'm having a tough time finding it anywhere nearby. What should we do next? Can you help us figure out how to get these important injections?

Since you mentioned that the injections were recommended to help prevent miscarriage, please ensure to keep your doctor informed about any issues with accessing the medication so that alternative treatments or options can be discussed.

I'm dealing with something that's been bugging me and could really use some advice. I was diagnosed with minor PCOD back in July 2015. My periods were delayed back then, but they eventually started happening naturally without any medication. To be on the safe side, I went ahead with PCOD treatment, and that's when my anxiety kicked in, which I find a bit confusing. So, after about three months, my ultrasound reports came back normal, and my PCOD seems to be cured. But there's this one thingmy periods are now really scanty, only bleeding for about a day. I used to bleed for around 3 days before all this started. Some people tell me it's all in my head, probably because of high stress and my anxiety disorder. It's confusing because I feel like PCOD might be the root cause of my anxiety, but now that it's supposedly cured, I'm wondering why my periods aren't normal. Any thoughts on what's going on with me?
