I'm 22 weeks pregnant and just got my anomaly scan done today. I'm a bit worried about whether everything looks normal. Is a fetal heart rate of 159 bpm okay or is it on the higher side?

Based on typical fetal development, at 22 weeks, normal parameters include a fetal heart rate between 110-160 bpm, so 159 bpm is within the normal range

I'm really worried and need some advice. I'm currently 6 weeks pregnant, and we tested on the 34th day, which came out positive. On the 35th day, the doctor administered HCG 5000, and the following day I noticed some spotting. I rested and the spotting reduced, but after receiving another HCG 5000 yesterday, the spotting returned after 4 hours. During a consultation with a doctor online, I was told it's normal and nothing to worry about, but the amount of spotting has increased now. Is there any way to stop this bleeding? It's our first child, and I'm really anxious about this situation. What should I do?

Spotting in early pregnancy can be common, and the HCG injections are often given to support the pregnancy. However, if the bleeding increases or you feel concerned, its important to follow up with your doctor for further guidance. Resting, staying hydrated, and monitoring the situation is key, but dont hesitate to reach out to your healthcare provider if you notice any significant changes. Stay positive, and take care!

My doctor found a 7 cm ovarian cyst and suggested surgery, also asked for a CA25 test. Is surgery really necessary for a cyst this size, and what does the CA25 test indicate? Should I be worried about cancer?

please visit your gynecologist.

I'm feeling a bit anxious about something. My wife usually gets her period around the 25th of each month. We were intimate on August 10th, and she found out she was pregnant soon after. She took abortion pills on September 4th and got her period the next day. We were intimate again on September 26th. I'm just wondering, is there a possibility she could be pregnant again?

Since your wife had her period on 5th September after taking abortion pills on 4th September, it's likely that her fertility cycle reset. Given that she had sex on 26th September, which is close to her ovulation period (typically around the 14th day of the menstrual cycle), there is a possibility of pregnancy. However, it depends on her individual cycle and ovulation timing. It's advisable to take a pregnancy test or consult a doctor for more clarity.
