Hi, I am a breastfeeding mother for 2 months old baby. I face fungal infections on the skin folds, especially near the breast. Please advise about the treatment.

Answered by Farida Lokhandwala

Hello, We would suggest you consult a dermatologist as it is not safe to take over-the-counter medications while breastfeeding. The doctor will be able to examine your issue and prescribe the right medications for you. Hope our answer helps you. This list might be useful - Dermatologists in India.

I am a 25 year old female who is currently 6 weeks pregnant. I have had 2 blighted ovums in 3 years apart. The scan has shown even this pregnancy is a blighted ovum. Is there a possibility of me having a normal pregnancy as I have had 2 blighted ovums already with 2 different partners. Please assist.

Female | 24

Blighted ovum, which is also called the synonym "anembryonic pregnancy," is a situation where a fertilized egg is implanted in the uterus, but the embryo does not develop. I understand your worries about having two blighted ovums one after the other were scary. The most important thing is to consult your doctor, who knows the potential causes and comes up with the possible solutions that allow you to have a healthy pregnancy in the future. You could have further examinations which are done to help decide if there is an underlying factor that is causing this to happen multiple times.

Can I be pregnant of hcg levels of 3.5

Female | 18

HCG levels of 3.5 means you are not pregnant. The normal range for HCG for non-pregnant ladies is usually less than 5 mlU/ml. If you have seen some unusual symptoms, you should see a gynecologist for a proper evaluation and consultation.

I have been taking contraceptives for some time now and my last time of taking was December 15 I haven't had sex till now my menses came December n last month but was supposed to come last week but it didn't come. I checked for pregnancy n it was negative

Female | 27

Hormonal contraceptives do affect your menstrual cycle. Also if your pregnancy test is negative then the period delay can be due to stress, changes in weight, or certain medications.

Mere period date abhi miss nhi hua hai pr pregnancy test positive aaya hai or mujhe irregular periods ki bhi problem hai to kya mai pregnant ho skti hu?

Female | 23

If your test for pregnancy turns out to be positive, it implies that you are already pregnant irrespective of whether your period has been late or not. An abnormal period may indicate any health problem that can affect your pregnancy. A visit to the doctor who is a specialist in high-risk pregnancies is a must for you as soon as possible.

Can I plan pregnancy with ventral hernia

Female | 36

Yes, it is possible to get pregnant with a ventral hernia. In that sense, it is important to see a general surgeon to discuss the extent of the hernia along with its severity before planning pregnancy. The surgeon may advise the patient to get surgery before pregnancy based on the size and position of the hernia, or closely monitor her during the pregnancy.

Hi Doctor , I'm a mother of 2 kids and recently had a miscarriage, now me & my husband want to go for tubal ligation surgery as it says it's not 100% although it's a permanent birth control method of over 99% effective , is it okay after the surgery to start taking Ovral L pill ?

Female | 39

Permanent birth control can be achieved through tubal ligation surgery. The chances of pregnancy are greatly reduced with this method, but it is not 100% guaranteed. You may begin taking Ovral L after undergoing the operation. It is vital that you have an open discussion with your doctor in order to consider all available alternatives and make the most appropriate decision for yourself. Always feel free to share any worries you may have with your physician. I wish you all the best!
