Can vitamin supplements help in recurrent vaginal infection?
Hi doctor,
I got married seven months back and this is the fourth time she caught bacterial vaginosis (BV). She never had any symptoms before marriage. We have consulted a gynecologist all the four times. She will prescribe antibiotics and other stuff and that successfully treat her for some time. I have done some research on the internet and found vitamin B complex help many women. Is that true?

Missed contraceptive pills, unprotected sex: Next steps?
Hello doctor,
I use a combined contraception pill. In this cycle, I forgot to take the 8th and the 13th. I further forgot the 15th but consumed it in the morning and on the same day on time consumed the 16th. On the 14th I had unprotected intercourse. Should I now take the pill after, or wait? And in the case of pregnancy do I have to consume the abortion pill?

Can unprotected sex four days after periods cause pregnancy?
Hello doctor,
I had unprotected sex after four days of the period this month. He did not ejaculate inside but I am not sure about pre-ejaculation. Within an hour after intercourse, I took unwanted 72 and I had bleeding for only one day. Is there a chance of pregnancy or not? Is it withdrawal bleeding? My mensuration cycle is 30 days. Does it come under safe days or not?

What are the further tests advised as per the NT report?
Hello doctor,
I had the NT scan at 11 weeks and 4 days and the NT was 3.3 mm. After that, I got the double marker test done which came back normal, with a risk of 1:624 for T21 and 1:685 for T13 and T18. I was asked to do the NT scan again and at 12 weeks and 2 days, the NT measured 2.8 mm. Also, the fetal heart rate which was 163 BPM at 11 weeks increased to 180 BPM at 12 weeks. I hope the results are normal. I do not want to do the amnio due to its associated risks. Is there anything to worry about?
