It gives him energy to grow and it produces milk for the coming day. So feed him 2-3 times at night and 6-8 times during ...

I am a mother of a young child aged 5years who is having a discomfort in one of his teeth and also a noticeable swelling on his gum and a small amount of yellow discharge occasionally from it.

Hi, I am not sure over your symptoms usually there are no causes in which testis suddenly reduce in size in which there is no pain or no direct injury to testis. This can happen that you might not be feeling for sex since a few days that is understandable and every one passes through that phase and you should not be worried about that. But if you really think that your testis has reduced in size without having any pain or any other symptom then you should get an ultrasound of your testis. Als ...

I'm very confused what should I do..!! please help me.......

Hi, Even condoms are not 100 percent effective at times leakage can occur in a condom and you can even get pregnant by pre penile secreations, may be secreations you might have had during fore play. Mensurol tablet is an ayurvedic tablet so i am not 100 percent sure but yes it is an abortion pill and causes bleeding to occur. First confirm your pregnancy by a urine pregnancy test,if you are pregnant then you can be prescribed with abortion pills by a gynaecologist after examination. If no then ...
