I'm currently on my first round of letrozole and tested positive for pregnancy on cycle day 37. I've got an appointment on Friday, but I'm feeling a bit worried. I've been having period-like cramps for a few seconds when I walk or get up from the bed or sofa. Sometimes I feel some pain around my ovaries and even some uterine pain after I pee for a few seconds. Is this normal in early pregnancy?

My vaginal opening is really tight and sex is painful when trying to insert. The doctor mentioned I might need a minor procedure, but I'm wondering if there are other options like medications or non-surgical treatments that could help first

Vaginismus is an involuntary tensing of the vagina. People experience it at the start of sex, while inserting a tampon or while getting a pelvic exam. Vaginismus can make intercourse painful (dyspareunia). Kegels, vaginal dilators and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can help relax muscles and stop spasms.

My wife is about 8 weeks into her pregnancy, and her gynecologist has prescribed Strone 200 for vaginal use. The thing is, shes having a tough time inserting the soft gel vaginally. We're wondering if she could take it orally instead? Or maybe there's another progesterone tablet out there that's suitable for oral intake?

Strone 200, a natural micronized progesterone, is typically administered vaginally, but if your wife experiences difficulties, consult her gynecologist about alternative options, such as oral progesterone supplements like Duphaston (dydrogesterone) or Naturogest (micronized progesterone), but do not switch or take any medication without consulting

My baby's weight is 1.6 kg at 32 weeks of pregnancy. Is this normal? What can I do to help increase the babys weight?

A baby weighing 1.6 kg at 32 weeks of pregnancy is slightly below average but can still be normal, depending on overall growth patterns. To support healthy weight gain, focus on a balanced diet rich in protein (like lentils, eggs, or dairy), iron, calcium, and essential vitamins. Regular prenatal check-ups will help monitor the baby's growth and ensure proper care.
