Many thanks Doc! Please can you recommend any cream, as for the antibitics i was also prescribed Augmentin in the hospital which i took religiously. Now i can't take any cos am already 2 months pregnant. Would have to rely on cream alone i guess.

missyjay:
Hello Dr. .It's 45 days already and I am yet to see my period. I have done a blood pregnancy test already and the result was negative. I really confused now because I am TTC. I don't know if its because of the pregnacare conception multivitamin that I am taking because even the period before this last one took 35 days before it came. pls advice.

Hi doc,I just came across this thread now and I must admit,I'm so excited.
I'm 7weeks pregnant and feeling really feverish,went to the hospital when I was 4weeks gone and the doctor told me she can't give me any anti -malarial because it was risky. But I'm really feeling sick,dizzy and weak.
The only drugs I'm taking now is pregnacare -plus,pls is there any drug or drugs u can recommend?Thank you.

Marc9:


Well, anti-malarial drugs are contra-indicated in in early pregnancy. But then, discretion is applied. Your doc was right about the risk in prescribing antimalarial drugs, but the risk of the untreated malaria outweighs the risk the antimalarial drug poses to the pregnancy. If the malaria lingers in your system, it could actually make you anaemic, threatening the pregnancy.

The right thing for your doc to do is to place you on a mild antimalarial, and likely place you on a short dosing.

See your doc tomorrow!

You can get 'Neosporin antibacterial cream'. Apply 2-3times daily.

Was the cause of your previous miscarriage made known to you?

Pls help, I am 32 yrs old married for 3+yrs trying to conceive. My period shifted from my normal 28days cycle to 33 days for 2 months consecutively now. Pls I just want to confirm if I'll still be ovulating normally cos of d diff in no of days. Thanks in anticipation.

Thanks so much Doc, The cause was not made to me o. I just noticed that i was bleeding and went to hospital the next day. Scan revealed the baby was not growing well as against the foetal age. An evacuation was done immediately, same day.

I have told my husband to help me buy the cream you recommended above. Pls hope its safe at this age of my pregnancy.(2months).

Pls doc my hubby has complained about itching on his p*nis on 2 diff occasions after sex. I went to test for infection and no infection was seen not even a little. Imagine d lab people inserted something like spatula inside me to collect specimen and my hubby too tested for infection and he's clean. Pls wat can be d cause of itching after sex. It wasn't happening like dis before now.

Your low LH and progesterone likely indicate anovulation. It means you're likely not ovulating. It's a case of hormonal imbalance.

How old are u?

Goldengift:
27.
