Avatar m tn Nurse advised me to take ZIDOLAM-N as PEP for 28 days. After continuing for 3 days i visited a doctor and he told me that Nevirapine should not be used for PEP but since i already started the PEP, he advised me to continue the same medication and asked to monitor closely the side effects of the drug. Now today Friday i am experiencing some pain in the upper abdomen. Is there any possibility that i can change the PEP drug to avoid nevirapine, please Suggest?
Avatar m tn I am going to the US in 2 days, if I cannot find a way to get pep here, could I take his ARVs just until then as a temporary measure? He says he takes nevirapine and tenofivir/lamivudine blend. Any advice really appreciated! If my risk is very low I would prefer not to take pep but I suspect I may be best advised to do so. If it makes a difference, I am prone to have a tiny amount of blood(I think from tears) on toilet paper when I use the bathroom so that may make it more risky? Thanks!
20922415 tn?1661860103 During the reproductive years, the pituitary gland in the brain generates hormones (follicle-stimulating hormone [FSH] and luteinizing hormone [LH]) that cause a new egg to mature and be released from its ovarian follicle each month. As the follicle develops, it produces the sex hormones estrogen and progesterone, which thicken the lining of the uterus called the endometrium.
Avatar f tn I have been taking my BC pill (been taking for last year) every day as usual even during the time of the antibiotics. I checked my calendar and we had sex the day of my ovulation. I looked online later and everyone says that you shouldn't have sex during the antibiotics AND one week after. Did I misunderstand my doctor, and could I possibly be pregnant by having sex the day after stopping my antibiotics? Thanks!

360318 tn?1340393363 Hello, I have heard sex during pregnancy is safe. But what if you are on top and he thrusts really hard in you? Is that ok? I'm not leaking any fluid. It just hurt a bit when he did it a times and I'm concerned. Any info is helpful.
Avatar f tn Anytime you heavily bleed during pregnancy it needs to be seen, in early pregnancy it could be a miscarriage, or it could be something much less serious, but it needs to get checked into! Good luck!
1884829 tn?1323878324 Hi ladies, I have a quick question. I've seen where a lot of women say they're sex drive is pretty much nonexistent, and they want nothing to do with sex during pregnancy, well I'm the complete opposite. My sex drive has always been high and hubby and I have a great sex life but now that I'm pregnant I want It all the time, more so than before which is saying a lot. I was this way with my last pregnancy too.

5624774 tn?1374284525 I have an appt with my doctor in the morning. The only time ive ever bled during pregnancy, is when i was miscarrying. I never bled with my healthy pregnancies. So im very confused. If i have a healthy pregnancy, why am i bleeding?? Also im breastfeeding and my doctor told me it was fine as long as im not cramping or bleeding. Well now im bleeding but its Sunday and i can't get ahold of her until tomorrow. The ER doc told me it was fine to continue but id like to get the ok from my doctor.
Avatar f tn I live with 3 other girls yet I feel completely alone and very down most of the time. Is this normal during pregnancy? Is it just a cause of increased hormones? Will it pass or should I do something about it? Thanks.
