You're most fertile at the time of ovulation (when an egg is released from your ovaries), which usually occurs 12 to 14 days before your next period starts. This is the time of the month when you're most likely to get pregnant. It's unlikely that you'll get pregnant just after your period, although it can happen.

I'm currently pregnant and using an inhaler, but I'm a bit worried about its safety during this time. Could you recommend an inhaler that's considered completely safe for pregnancy?

During pregnancy, it's important to avoid unnecessary medications, but inhalers like **Salbutamol** (a short-acting bronchodilator) are generally considered safe for asthma management. Always consult your doctor before starting any medication to ensure it's the best option for you and your baby.

I'm really worried after getting an ultrasound report which says my uterus is bulky and there's a hypoechoicovoid solid mass in the posterior uterine wall that's quite large at 42x31mm. There's also another similar mass, though smaller, about 16x15mm, in the anterior uterine wall. Could you explain what this means, and should I be concerned about these masses? What might this indicate about my health?

The ultrasound findings indicate that the uterus is bulky and contains two solid masses. One mass, measuring 4231 mm, is located in the posterior uterine wall, while another smaller mass of 1615 mm is found in the anterior uterine wall. These masses may require further evaluation by your doctor to determine their nature and appropriate management.
