If next cycle starts from 28 +/- 7 days from the first date of last menstrual cycle then it is considered a normal cycle.

I'm really worried and hoping for some advice. So, I had unprotected sex a day before I got my period and my cycles are usually between 28-32 days. The guy I was with ejaculated inside me. Is there a chance I could still get pregnant from this? I'm a bit anxious about the timing and how it all works. Would love some clarity on this!

It's unlikely that pregnancy would occur in this scenario, as the girl had her usual period the day after unprotected sex. Ovulation typically occurs in the middle of the menstrual cycle, so if the period started on time, it suggests she was not in her fertile window. However, if there are any concerns or missed periods later, it's always a good idea to take a pregnancy test or consult a healthcare provider.

I'm 31 weeks pregnant and just got some blood work back. My SGOT is at 35, SGPT is 65, and alkaline phosphatase (AP) is at 167. Plus, my platelet count is 110. Should I be concerned about these results?

Your elevated SGPT (65) and low platelet count (110) may indicate a potential liver issue, such as preeclampsia or HELLP syndrome, which can be concerning during pregnancy, so it's essential to discuss these results with your obstetrician and closely monitor your condition to ensure the health and safety of both you and your baby.
