I'm 25 weeks pregnant with my first baby and I'm planning to travel to Assam during my 27th or 28th week. While most of my trip from Chennai will be by air, I'll spend the last two hours on some really bad and bumpy roads. Is it safe for someone in my condition to make this trip on such roads? What precautions should I take, and what emergency signs should I be on the lookout for, given that there isn't a good medical facility nearby?

Traveling during your 2728th week of pregnancy with bumpy roads may pose risks, such as discomfort, back pain, and potentially, preterm labor or placental abruption; to minimize risks, consider consulting your obstetrician before traveling, wear a seatbelt, take regular breaks, stay hydrated, and avoid fatigue; monitor yourself for emergency signs, including severe abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding, contractions, or decreased fetal movement, and research local medical facilities along your route in case of an emergency, despite their limitations.

I've been struggling with irregular periods due to PCOS for years and haven't been able to get pregnant. We've been married for five years and really want to start a family. Are there any effective treatments that don't involve surgery?

my mom had her uterus removed 25 days ago but she's eating very little and feels tightness in her stomach with pain below the navel is this normal after surgery or should we see her gynecologist when can we expect her to fully recover
It's understandable to be concerned about your mom's post-hysterectomy recovery, especially with her reduced appetite and pain. While some pain and discomfort are normal in the weeks following surgery, persistent pain and difficulty eating warrant further evaluation by her gynecologist. A full recovery can take several weeks, and it's important to monitor for signs of complications like infection.
