I'm planning to get pregnant and my gynecologist advised me to start taking folic acid tablets for two months beforehand. I'm curious about the difference between Folsafe L and Folvite. I'm also concerned because my husband and I are cousins. Which of these tablets would be more suitable for me?

Since its a consanguineous marriage, there may arise some problems with the child so you have to be very careful.Anyways, you can take any of the two because both are essentially the same. Not an issue which you choose.

View allI'm a bit worried after getting my ultrasound results. It says I have mild hepatomegaly with grade I fatty liver, and there are small renal calculi in both kidneys. The report also mentions a left ovarian hemorrhagic cyst measuring 39x32mm and a mildly bulky cervix with a few nabothian cysts. There's also some free fluid in the pouch of Douglas. Can you help me understand what all this means? Is there anything serious I should be concerned about?
Fatty liver management often includes lifestyle changes such as diet, exercise, and weight management. You may be referred for further liver function tests.For the renal stones drinking more water and avoiding foods that contribute to stone formation.The ovarian cyst may require monitoring, especially if there are any symptoms such as pain or changes in menstrual cycles. If the cervical cysts and bulky cervix are causing symptoms, they may need further attention.

my mom had her uterus removed 25 days ago but she's eating very little and feels tightness in her stomach with pain below the navel is this normal after surgery or should we see her gynecologist when can we expect her to fully recover
It's understandable to be concerned about your mom's post-hysterectomy recovery, especially with her reduced appetite and pain. While some pain and discomfort are normal in the weeks following surgery, persistent pain and difficulty eating warrant further evaluation by her gynecologist. A full recovery can take several weeks, and it's important to monitor for signs of complications like infection.

I'm really curious about finding out the gender of my baby! I've got sonography scan reports from my 20-week appointment. Do you think you could take a look at them and tell me if it's a boy or a girl?
Gender determination is usually done during a specific ultrasound examination. If you are curious about the gender of your baby, I recommend discussing this with your healthcare provider during your next prenatal visit. Please be informed that this is illegal in most parts of India.
