What causes a baby to stop growing in the womb?

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

The most common cause is a problem in the placenta (the tissue that carries food and blood to the baby). Birth defects and genetic disorders can cause IUGR. If the mother has an infection, high blood pressure, is smoking, or drinking too much alcohol or abusing drugs, her baby might have IUGR.

I've just started taking Primolut N 5 mg twice a day to delay my period, but it still began today. I'm not sure if I should keep taking the pills or stop. Is there any chance that my period might stop if I continue with them? And if I decide to quit, what happens with the two pills I've already taken? I'm really confused about what to do next.

Since your period has already started, its likely best to stop taking the Primolut-N. The tablets youve already taken may have a mild effect on the flow and duration, but they wont stop your period now. If you continue to have concerns or if you experience abnormal bleeding, its important to check with your doctor for personalized advice.

I'm curious about whether it's safe for my husband to suck my nipples as much as he does. We've been doing this for years where he enjoys doing it for about 40 minutes every other night, followed by clitoral stimulation and then sex. I came across some information suggesting this might not be safe, and it's got me a bit worried. Can you shed some light on this?

Nipple sucking is generally safe as long as there are no infections, open sores, or excessive force that could cause discomfort or injury. If you experience any pain, irritation, or unusual symptoms, its best to consult a doctor for guidance. Otherwise, it's a normal part of intimacy for many couples.
