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've been dealing with soreness in one of my nipples for a few days now, and its really uncomfortable when I touch it. A few months back, I had some discharge from the same nipple and underwent an ultrasound and several blood tests, but everything came back negative. Ive been on birth control pills for about 7 years. Any ideas on why I might be experiencing this pain, even though there's no discharge or other issues right now?
there might be some hormonal changes so you are getting pain. apply primrose oil every night for 1 month it will reduce your pain

I'm a bit confused about how periods and ovulation are connected. Is it possible to have a period without ovulating? And if I do ovulate, does that mean I'll definitely get my period about 15 days after? I'm just trying to understand how it all works.
Yes, it is possible to have a menstrual period without ovulation. This is known as an anovulatory cycle. Yes, typically after ovulation, a menstrual period occurs around 14 days later. This is known as the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle. If fertilization does not occur, the uterine lining sheds, resulting in menstruation. If you are looking for a medication to regulate your menstrual cycle, you can consider using oral contraceptive pills such as Yaz or Yasmin.

What's the average cost for laparoscopy and ectopic pregnancy surgery in Mumbai? I'm really worried about the expenses can it be done under 50,000 or is it way more expensive than that? Just need an approximate idea to plan things out.
Yes, minimally invasive surgery is generally a good option. It usually results in faster recovery, less pain, and minimal scarring. However, final decision depends on imaging findings, symptoms, and your overall health—please consult your gynecologist.
