I'm two weeks postpartum after my C-section, and I've noticed that wearing the tummy belt causes vaginal bleeding. Should I keep using it, or is this something I should be worried about?

Discontinue wearing the tummy belt immediately, as it may be causing increased pressure on your cervix or uterus, leading to vaginal bleeding; instead, focus on gentle postpartum exercises, like pelvic tilts and deep breathin

View allI'm a bit worried because I accidentally took 2 Zandu Parad tablets a few weeks ago, and I'm currently one month pregnant. The tablets have mercury 30 mg and Khatika 60 mg in them. They're usually used in households for things like protecting grains. I haven't had any symptoms or felt unwell, but I'm concerned about any potential effects on my baby. Could there be any risks or side effects from this? Would love some advice on what I should do next.
if you have consumed it 20 days ago and now pregnant since one month(ie your last periods was around 12th of April I guess) then nothing to worry much as baby wasn't formed yet 20 days ago.. and moreover you consumed safe limit of mercury so only you dint have any symptoms.. if you still have worry then your usg at 10-12weeks wil tel if baby is normal or not as by then all parts of you baby will be formed well..if your stil anxious then consult your physician and obstetrician once..

I've missed my period this time and had unprotected sex about 12 days ago. I'm unsure if I'm pregnant, and I'm worried about what might happen if I take Unwanted Mankind abortion pills without confirming it. Could there be any side effects if I take them even if I'm not actually pregnant?
Taking abortion pills like Unwanted M without confirming pregnancy is not recommended. If you are not pregnant, these pills can still cause side effects such as nausea, bleeding, or hormonal disturbances. Please take a pregnancy test first and consult a doctor for appropriate guidance.

My friend is wondering if it's okay to use lubricants while not using a condom. Are there certain types of lubricants that are safe to use without a condom?
Yes, lubricants can be used without a condom. However, it's important to choose water-based or silicone-based lubricants, as they are safe for direct skin contact and won't cause irritation. Always ensure the lubricant is compatible with your needs, especially for sensitive areas.
