View allI noticed my girlfriend is taking Endogest 200 tablets and recently, she's been having irregular periods, sometimes being delayed by as much as 56 days. I'm a bit worried and not sure why she's on this medication. Is there a specific issue that these tablets address? We're planning to get married in a few months, so I'm also wondering if this could affect her chances of getting pregnant. Can you provide some insight into this?
no

I'm feeling pretty anxious right now. My wife is in her 5th month of pregnancy, and we just completed the Tiffa scan, which showed a single umbilical artery. While they said the baby is healthy, we're really worried about what this could mean going forward. Can you help us understand what this single umbilical cord might imply or if there's anything specific we should be concerned about?

I'm a bit worried and need some advice. My last menstrual period was on May 10, and I started Clomid on May 16, following my gynecologist's advice. I have hypothyroidism with TSH at 2.74, normal T3 and T4 levels, but my anti-TPO is quite high at 500. My period is now over 70 days late. A urine pregnancy test was negative on the 55th day, and the ultrasound showed 5 cysts on my ovaries. My gynecologist then prescribed Meprate 10mg. But today, I took another urine pregnancy test, and it came out positive. I'm confused because I've only had contact with my husband on July 8 and in May. Could this be a pregnancy? If so, what should I do next? When should I actually see my gynecologist again? And is there any risk to my pregnancy if Ive been on Meprate? Could you please guide me?
