I'm currently pregnant and using an inhaler, but I'm a bit worried about its safety during this time. Could you recommend an inhaler that's considered completely safe for pregnancy?

During pregnancy, it's important to avoid unnecessary medications, but inhalers like Salbutamol (a short-acting bronchodilator) are generally considered safe for asthma management. Always consult your doctor before starting any medication to ensure it's the best option for you and your baby.

I've been intimate with my boyfriend, and I'm a bit confused. After oral sex, he kissed me and then went down on me. Is there any possibility that I could get pregnant from this?

I've been experiencing some worrying symptoms lately. After having sexual intercourse, I started noticing bleeding when I pee, and it's painful. A couple of days later, I developed a fever, and now I'm having vaginal itching along with pain in my lower back and abdomen. What could be causing this?
