I've been experiencing very painful menstrual cramps and my doctor recommended I try Meftal Spas tablets. They've been really helpful in relieving my pain for about 5 to 6 hours, and I've been taking them whenever the pain gets too intense. But now I'm noticing that my periods are getting delayed and the cramps seem to be even more painful. Could these things be side effects of the tablets?

Meftal Spas is a commonly used medication for menstrual pain, but frequent use can sometimes affect the regularity of your periods or increase pain in some cases. It's important to use it cautiously and consult your doctor if you notice changes in your cycle or increased discomfort, as they may need to adjust your treatment plan.

I'm a bit worried about this situation. I was with my girlfriend, and I fingered her after touching my penis which might have had some precum on it. Neither of us has ever had sex before, and I didnt actually have penetrative sex, it was just fingering. Could there be a risk of pregnancy from this?

I'm a bit concerned about this pregahope vaginal gel my wife is using as per the doctor's recommendation. I've noticed that some of the gel seems to come out of her vagina, and I'm worried that this might also make sperm come out as well. Is there a way to control the amount of gel being used, or is this normal?

,It's progesterone gell, Progesterone is naturally secreted by the ovary in the second two weeks of the menstrual cycle. Progesterone has been used also as therapy for PMS syndrome and for women with infertility or frequent pregnancy loss. Apply a small amount of gell to the genital area prior to or during intercourse. Re-apply as required.sperm has self motility , its will not come back with gel
