I'm in my ninth month of pregnancy and I've been having a really hard time with constipation. Drinking a lot of water doesn't seem to help much. Even when I take 15ml of Duphalac syrup at night, I'm still struggling to pass stool and have to push really hard. Are there any home remedies or other suggestions you could give me to help with this?

View allI'm nursing my 3-year-old and wondering if it's safe to take cyclopam for menstrual pain. Could this medication be harmful while breastfeeding?
Cyclopam (Dicyclomine) can be taken occasionally for menstrual pain while nursing a 3-year-old, as only small amounts pass into breast milk, and it's generally considered safe. However, monitor your child for any signs of drowsiness or feeding changes, and consult your doctor for personalized advice.

I'm really worried because my partner and I had sex, but not full-on intercourse, and now she's missed her period. I'm really scared some of my fluid might have gotten into her vagina. Is there a chance she's pregnant, and if so, what can we do to prevent it?
The burnt plastic smell and taste, particularly with raw vegetables, may indicate a condition like parosmia or phantosmia. The recent jaw pain could be related to a dental issue or sinus pressure. Consult an Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) specialist or a primary care physician for a proper evaluation. Additionally, a dentist should also be consulted to rule out any dental issues.

I had unprotected sex on April 6th and my girlfriend's last period started on March 8th. She's 21 and really doesn't want to be pregnant. It's April 13th now and her period still hasn't started. We're both worried. What should we do?
Firstly what you need to do is quit having sex with her this way. If she doesn't want to be pregnant and you don't want to take any responsibility, then why don't you use condom? Take her to a gynaecologist in person for further evaluation and management.
