Hello, This implies that you are not pregnant if urine pregnancy test, post 8 days missed periods is still negative.

If it is long standing vaginal discharge I would suggest she sees a Gynaecologist for examination and vaginal swabs. Treatment can then be tailored accordingly. Also I would advice she increases her water intake and has multivitamin supplements.

It may be due to infection in uterous for safe ayurvedic medicime consult me it may be fungal infection

Dear Gaurav Malpani, The variation from normal range is not high and is not worrying at this stage. However, peripheral smear is worthwhile.

It is best you are seen by a Gynaecologist as you would need to be examined and an ultrasound arranged

There are millions of sperms in one discharge and discharge does not mean all the liquid which You see flowing out after the act.That fluid may have sperms but the most of that is your own lubrication coupled with other secretions of semen. When a man discharges or ejaculates his semen it is deep nearer the cervix not at the opening of the mouth of the vagina that the whole of it comes out, It may be that you are having above average lubrication of your own. From the moment of ejaculation provided the man's sperms are healthy and motile, they do not come back they start moving forward crossing the cervix and going into womb towards the awaiting ovum, these sperms are timed like that and millions of them when only one is needed for fertilising the egg. So you will have to look else where for the reason of not conceiving

Agee and in addition you are 2-3 days away so if there is pain or liquid discharge go to the hosp asap.

Eating fruit

We all think eating fruits means just buying fruits, cutting it and just popping it into our mouths.

It's not as easy as you think. It's important to know how and *when* to eat the fruits.

What is the correct way of eating fruits?

It means not eating fruits after your meals!

Fruits should be eaten on an empty stomach

If you eat fruits on empty stomach, it will play a major role to detoxify your system, supplying you with a great deal of energy for weight loss and other life activities.

Fruit is the most important food.

Let's say you eat two slices of bread and then a slice of fruit.

The slice of fruit is ready to go straight through the stomach into the intestines, but it is prevented from doing so due to the bread taken before the fruit.

In the meantime the whole meal of bread & fruit rots and ferments and turns to acid.

The minute the fruit comes into contact with the food in the stomach and digestive juices, the entire mass of food begins to spoil.

So please eat your fruits on an *empty stomach* or before your meals!

You have heard people complaining:

Every time I eat watermelon I burp, when I eat durian my stomach bloats up, when I eat a banana I feel like running to the toilet, etc. Etc.

Actually all this will not arise if you eat the fruit on an empty stomach.

The fruit mixes with the putrefying of other food and produces gas and hence you will bloat!

Greying hair, balding, nervous outburst and dark circles under the eyes all these will *not* happen if you take fruits on an empty stomach.

There is no such thing as some fruits, like orange and lemon are acidic, because all fruits become alkaline in our body, according to Dr. Herbert shelton who did research on this matter.

If you have mastered the correct way of eating fruits, you have the * secret * of beauty, longevity, health, energy, happiness and normal weight.

When you need to drink fruit juice - drink only * fresh* fruit juice, not from the cans, packs or bottles.

Don't even drink juice that has been heated up.

Don't eat cooked fruits because you don't get the nutrients at all.

You only get its taste.
Cooking destroys all the vitamins.

But eating a whole fruit is better than drinking the juice.

If you should drink the fresh fruit juice, drink it mouthful by mouthful slowly, because you must let it mix with your saliva before swallowing it.

You can go on a 3-day fruit fast to cleanse or detoxify your body.

Just eat fruits and drink fresh fruit juice throughout
The 3 days.
And you will be surprised when your friends tell you how radiant you look!

One of the most efficient ways of not getting pregnant is indeed by taking contraceptive pills. These day we have low dose estrogen pills which minimize to a great extent the old side effects of pills. So you need not worry too much about the side effects. Depending upon the brand of drug you choose the side effects may vary like headache, nausea, bloating sensation etc. However we hardly see these side effects anymore so you should probably go ahead with pills provided you have not/are not suffering from any other disorder like diabetes, are not on blood thinners etc.

Normal vaginal discharge is called leucorrhoea. It's a mild or musky-smelling milky fluid that keeps your vagina clean. It comes from your cervix, which is the neck of your uterus (womb). You probably get more when you're pregnant because more blood is flowing to the area.

Hi, HSG will only show whether tunes are open anatomically.But whether it is functional. that is whether there is motility to catch the egg and transport the embryo back to the uterus can be checked only by seeing which means visualizing thro laparoscopy.In that also even if the tube shows motility it does not guarantee that it can catch the embryo which nobody can say.But atleast we can rule out if the tube are plastered and not moving or adhesions are there then there is no point in trying and ivf is the only solution. To come to that clarity it will be helpful.Also if there are minor adhesions it can be released. In any way laparoscopy will be helpful. But you can try few more iui cycles in a good center before going in for lap.
