I'm 20 weeks pregnant and my doctor recommended Dexorange syrup for me. I'm a bit concerned because I noticed it contains 5.5% alcohol. Is it safe for me to be taking this during pregnancy?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Dexorange syrup contains iron and other vitamins, but the alcohol content is a concern during pregnancy. While the amount is small, it's best to consult your doctor regarding its use, as alcohol consumption during pregnancy is generally advised against. Your doctor may suggest an alternative iron supplement without alcohol.

I've heard they can contain weird things like teeth or hair how does that even happen? 2. Is surgery the only way to treat a dermoid cyst, or can it be managed with alternatives like yoga, Ayurveda, or homeopathy? I'd really prefer to avoid surgery if possible. 3. It's called a monster cyst because it might have tissues like bone or nails how does something like that develop inside the body on its own?

How many pads a day is normal?
A very rough estimate would be four or five pads, assuming that you're getting at least the recommended 7 hours of sleep at night.

I'm really hoping to find a doctor who has experience with treating intramural fibroids. I'm looking for someone who can make me feel comfortable and also guide me through my pregnancy treatment. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
Finding the right doctor for intramural fibroid treatment can be challenging, especially when you're looking for someone who can provide a comfort zone and support your pregnancy treatment. When searching for a doctor, look for obstetricians or gynecologists with experience in treating fibroids, particularly intramural ones. You can ask questions like: What treatment options do they recommend? Do they have experience with pregnant patients? What's their approach to managing fibroid-related complications during pregnancy? Some doctors may recommend watchful waiting, while others might suggest surgical interventions like myomectomy or uterine artery embolization. It's essential to discuss your individual situation and determine the best course of action.
