I'm currently in my 7th month of pregnancy, and during my last scan, the doctor noted that my cervical length is 2.9. I'm really worried about whether this could lead to any complications or if there's a chance of going into early labor. Can you give me some advice or let me know what I should be looking out for?

View allI'm 5 weeks pregnant and I'm a bit worried because I did two beta HCG tests 48 hours apart, but the numbers didn't double. I also had a vaginal scan that showed the yolk sac, but they couldn't see the fetal pole yet. My cervix length is 3.5 cm and they mentioned a single intrauterine gestation with an MSD of 5.9 mm. Im just really anxious to knowdoes this mean I'm pregnant or not?
Yes, you are pregnant, as a yolk sac and a single intrauterine gestation have been visualized. However, the absence of a fetal pole and a suboptimal rise in beta HCG may indicate a need for close follow-up. A repeat scan in 7-10 days is recommended to confirm viability and check for the fetal pole.

I've got these blisters on one of the lips of my vagina, and it's super painful. I've been experiencing some burning and itchiness too. I always have protected sex, but about a few weeks ago, I did receive oral sex. Should I be worried about this? What could it be?
Blisters on one lip of your vagina along with pain and itching could be indicative of genital herpes. Since you mentioned receiving oral sex a few weeks ago, it is possible that you have contracted herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) genitally. I recommend taking antiviral medication such as Acyclovir (400mg three times a day) or Valacyclovir (1 gram twice a day) to help manage the symptoms and reduce the duration of the outbreak. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry, wearing loose cotton underwear, and avoiding sexual contact until the blisters have healed can help in the healing process.
