Sometimes early delivery may be recommended because the baby is large.

I'm really confused about my pregnancy test results. I took a Prega News test and there was only one line, but I noticed that the HCG absorbent paper turned pink after about 3 minutes. My period is supposed to start on the 28th of this month. I even took the test yesterday and it came back negative. Does the pink color on the absorbent paper mean there's HCG hormone present?

Check for pregnancy aftre missing regular period for more than a week and visit Obstetrician for appropriate management,those tests could be false positive at times

I'm dealing with this constant tingling sensation in my anus and vagina, and it's really messing with my focus at work and even my sleep. Washing the area after urinating gives me some short relief, and sitting down after I've been walking or standing for long periods helps a bit too. I'm wondering if there are any natural remedies or maybe an ayurvedic solution that could help with this?

try drinking plenty of water to help flush out any potential infection. You can also try taking cranberry supplements or drinking cranberry juice to help prevent and treat urinary tract infections. Additionally, you can use over-the-counter antifungal creams like Clotrimazole for vaginal itching and discomfort. Make sure to maintain good hygiene practices and wear cotton underwear to keep the area dry and clean. If the symptoms persist, I recommend consulting a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.

I'm currently one month pregnant, but I'm not ready for that now and I'm thinking about abortion. I've heard stories about how certain pills might affect my ability to get pregnant later on, and it's got me really worried. Is that true? If not, what are the options? Also, I tried eating papaya and pineapple and even took hot showers, but nothing seems to work. Can you give me some advice?

You can consider using the medicine Mankind's Unwanted Kit for medical abortion. It contains a combination of Mifepristone and Misoprostol which are effective in terminating early pregnancies. However, it is important to consult a healthcare provider for proper guidance on the dosage and administration of these medications.
