I'm 5 weeks pregnant and my recent urine test showed pus cells of 20-25. Is this something I should be worried about? Could it lead to any serious issues?

Widal Test Report Interpretation

Positive Result:

The Widal test detects antibodies against Salmonella Typhi and Paratyphi. Your report shows:

Salmonella Typhi O (1:160): Indicates a significant level of antibodies against Typhi O antigen.

Salmonella Typhi H (1:40): Shows a moderate level of antibodies against Typhi H antigen.

Impression: Positive (+ve)

This suggests that you have been exposed to Salmonella Typhi, which could indicate a current or past Typhoid infection.

Dietary Recommendations:

During Typhoid infection, it's essential to focus on nutrient-rich foods that are easy to digest:

Fluids: Drink plenty of water, clear soups, and electrolyte-rich beverages like coconut water.

Bananas: Easy to digest and a good source of potassium.

Rice: Plain white rice is easy on the stomach.

Applesauce: A low-fiber, easily digestible fruit.

Lean proteins: Opt for lean proteins like chicken, fish, or tofu.

Avoid spicy and fatty foods: These can exacerbate digestive issues.

I've taken abortion pills, and about 30 days after having sex, I started bleeding like my normal period. But then after 10 days, I had pain for 3 days, and the bleeding started again. Now it's been bleeding for more than 10 days. What should I do?

After taking abortion pills, experiencing bleeding for more than 10 days can be concerning. It is important to monitor the amount of bleeding and any associated symptoms. If the bleeding continues beyond 2 weeks or if you experience severe pain, fever, or foul-smelling discharge, please seek immediate medical attention.
