    If it is necessary, general anesthesia is safe during a c/section. However, it is considered safer for you to have either an epidural or spinal.

  • Am I pregnant?

    A urine pregnancy test done 23 days after your last sexual encounter should be positive now if you are pregnant. If you had a progesterone IUD placed (ie Mirena, Kylena, etc) your cycles may change and not be on their regular pattern. This does not mean you are pregnant. READ MORE

  • Hormone levels?

    It really is important to know why these tests were initially being done. These hormone levels change throughout the day. They both are in a normal range and they don't have to be the same. You should discuss these results with your doctor. READ MORE

  • Pregnancy chance?

    The first thing you should do is a pregnancy test. If the pregnancy test is negative then you are not pregnant. Women do not get their period when they are pregnant. Sometimes women can have abnormal bleeding during pregnancy but this is not a period. READ MORE
