I'm really curious and a bit nervous about having sex for the first time. What should both my partner and I know or do to make sure it's a good and safe experience for us both since it's our first time?

To have a good first-time sexual experience, it's important to communicate openly with your partner, take things slow, and prioritize each other's comfort and consent. Make sure to use protection to prevent sexually transmitted infections and unwanted pregnancies. It's also important to be aware of each other's boundaries and to stop if either partner feels uncomfortable. As for contraception, you can consider using condoms to prevent STIs and also consider using emergency contraceptive pills if needed.

View allCan a girl really get pregnant if she's still a virgin and there wasn't full penetration? Like, if there was just rubbing with some precum involved, is pregnancy still possible? I'm just trying to understand how risky it is, and how worried we should be about pregnancy in this kind of situation.
Yes, it is possible for pregnancy to occur even without full penetration if sperm from precum comes into contact with the vagina. Though the risk is lower, its still a possibility, so using contraception is important to prevent unintended pregnancies.

I'm about four months pregnant and my gynaecologist started me on cutenox injections back in my second month. Lately, I'm noticing that my thigh muscles are getting hard from the injections and it takes a while for the spots to heal. One time, after an injection, I started bleeding and it took hours to stop, even though my platelets are fine. My doctor wants me to continue these injections for the whole nine months. Is this safe for such a long period? And if I decide to stop them, could it harm my baby? I'm worried and would love some clarity.
The prolonged use of Cutenox injections, containing low molecular weight heparin, for 9 months may increase the risk of osteoporosis, bleeding complications, and thrombocytopenia, and although generally considered safe during pregnancy, the frequent bleeding episodes and muscle hardening you're experiencing warrant a reevaluation of your treatment plan with your gynaecologist to weigh the benefits and risks and consider alternative options, as abruptly stopping the injections may not harm the baby, but a gradual transition or adjustment under medical guidance is recommended.

What if periods are late by 10 days?
If next cycle starts from 28 +/- 7 days from the first date of last menstrual cycle then it is considered a normal cycle. A delay of 10 days is not normal and may need evaluation.
