I have high blood pressure during pregnancy and my symptoms include vision loss, shortness of breath, and headaches. My doctors are not prescribing medication to lower my blood pressure, and I'm concerned about the physical risks. Is it safe to get medication for high blood pressure, and what are the risks associated with taking Labetalol?

My girlfriend and I had unprotected sex on August 26th, and her period was supposed to start on August 29th. She is now 3 days late, and she can be irregular sometimes. I am wondering if she might be pregnant, considering she has had three miscarriages before and might have a harder time conceiving. She has tender breasts, mild cramps, and has been more sleepy, but no morning sickness. She vomited once after eating, but feels better now. She is not on any regular medications.

I have a UTI and now I have a yeast infection before the UTI is gone. I have been taking AZO for 2 weeks now and have noticed symptoms of the yeast infection such as itching, burning, and discharge. I am also waiting to have surgery on my stomach. What treatment options are available for both infections, and should I consult a healthcare provider before attempting to treat them at home?

Can you get pregnant on your period?

January 14th, 2023

I have pretty regular cycles, but the last couple before I got pregnant were longer than usual, around 30-32 days. My last menstrual period was March 27, 2023, and my due date is January 1, 2024. According to my ovulation calculator, my fertile window was April 6th-April 12th. I had unprotected sex with Male A on April 4th and with Male B from April 7th to April 10th multiple times. I tested negative on the first and second days of my missed period but got a positive test on April 26th. Who do you think the father more than likely is?
