I'm 15 weeks pregnant and just got my NT scan and double marker tests done. I'm worried about my results and need to know if they're normal. My FBHCG is 193 ngmlis that okay? Also, my biochemical T21 risk is 1:178. Does that mean there's a significant risk? My nuchal translucency is 1.7 mm and NT MoM is 1.09. My report mentions the trisomy 21 risk is negative, as well as the trisomy 1318 screen. Can you help me understand what all this means?

Based on your report, your parameters appear normal: the free beta-hCG (193ngml) is within the typical range for 15 weeks gestation, the biochemical T21 risk (1:178) is considered low-risk, and the nuchal translucency (1.7mm) with a MoM of 1.09 is also within normal limits, and with the trisomy 21, 13, and 18 screens all reported as negative, your results indicate a low risk for these chromosomal abnormalities.

View allWhat's going on with my mom's scan results? It mentions a bulky anterior wall fibroid and describes the sizes of her uterus and ovaries, but I'm not sure what this all means for her health. She's 54 and I'm worried about what to do next. Could you please explain?
Based on the ultrasound report, your 54-year-old mother has a bulky anterior wall fibroid (5.1x5.4x5.6cm) and normal ovarian echo patterns; considering her age, treatment options may include watchful waiting, hormonal therapy, or surgical interventions like myomectomy or hysterectomy, but it's essential to consult a gynecologist

I'm kind of worried because I had unprotected sex on March 20th and got nervous so I took an ipill within 12 hours, even though he didnt finish inside me. Then the next day we had unprotected sex again, and I took another ipill. My period was supposed to start on March 25th, but now its late, and I havent had any bleeding, even though Ive read that you might get a heavy flow after taking ipills. I'm really scared. What should I do?
The delay in your period could be a side effect of the pill. I recommend waiting for a few more days for your period to arrive. If you do not get your period after a week or so, you can consider taking a pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy. In the meantime, try to stay calm and avoid stress as it can also affect your menstrual cycle.

My wife is struggling with vaginal dryness, and it's becoming a bit of an issue for us when it comes to our intimacy. Could you recommend a good vaginal lubricant that we can pick up at the local pharmacy?
This is often the result of not enough foreplay. Insufficient lubrication is also commonly caused by a drop in estrogen levels after menopause, after childbirth or during breast-feeding. Certain medications are known to inhibit desire or arousal, which can decrease lubrication and make sex painful. These include antidepressants, high blood pressure medications, sedatives, antihistamines and certain birth control pills. This includes injury or irritation from an accident, pelvic surgery, female circumcision or a cut made during childbirth to enlarge the birth canal (episiotomy). An infection in your genital area or urinary tract can cause painful intercourse. Eczema or other skin problems in your genital area also can be the problem...Involuntary spasms of the muscles of the vaginal wall (vaginismus) can make attempts at penetration...consult gynecologist they will help you further
