I'm currently 21 weeks pregnant and recently had a blood test that showed my glucose level is 160. I'm worried if this is normal for pregnancy or if it could cause any problems. Can you provide some guidance on this?

View allI'm a TB patient and it's been 9 months since my surgery. My doctor has me on Rcinex and said I should continue it for 3 more months. I'm wondering if I can take ipills, will they work for me? Also, my periods are a bit irregular, sometimes 1 or 2 days off, or even 34 days. It's been 18 days since my last period, and I'm a bit worried. Can you help?
taking i-Pills (emergency contraception), as TB medications can interact with hormonal contraceptives, potentially reducing their effectiveness; additionally, your varying menstrual cycle and timing since your last period may impact the efficacy of i-Pills so consult gynaecologist

Can we eat ice cream during periods?
Having a lot of dairy products is not the best idea, as it can cause cramping. Dairy products like milk, cheese, and ice cream contain arachidonic acid (an omega-6 fatty acid), which can increase inflammation and can intensify your period pain.

I'm 25 and just found out I have a dermoid cyst near my right ovary it's 10x7x9 cm. My doctor recommended laparoscopic surgery, but I'm wondering if there are other options since I also have PCOD. What else can be done about this?
For your 10x7x9 cm dermoid cyst near your right ovary, while laparoscopic surgery is the most common approach, other options exist, especially considering your PCOD diagnosis. Watchful waiting with regular follow-up scans, hormonal contraceptives to reduce cyst formation, or surgical removal of the cyst alone (cystectomy) without removing the ovary (oophorectomy) are possibilities. Your doctor can help determine the best course of action based on your specific circumstances and preferences
