I'm just wondering if it's safe to go for a normal delivery with my amniotic fluid index measuring between 9 and 10 cm. I'm currently 36 weeks and 2 days pregnant. Should I be concerned, or is it generally okay at this stage?

your AFI of 9-10 cm is in the normal range and should not pose a concern for your delivery. Normal delivery can proceed, but your doctor will consider other factors during labor and delivery. Always follow your doctor's advice and keep attending your prenatal appointments to monitor both your health and the baby's well-being.

Novelon tablet, containing desogestrel, is a progestin-only pill used to regulate menstrual cycles, including in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), but it may not directly address polycystic ovaries; regarding weight gain, Novelon is considered weight-neutral, meaning it's unlikely to cause significant weight gain, but individual responses may vary;

I'm a bit concerned because I've been experiencing some discomfort in my breasts lately. There's this off-and-on stinging pain in both breasts, and they feel kind of heavy and sore. What's weird is that when the stinging pain hits, I also get this painful pulse on the right side of my head. I know I usually get menstrual migraines, but I'm not near my cycle right now. Could these things be related, or is there something else going on?

take tablet zerodol and tablet pantop for 3 days
