Am 32 years old, and I have recently tested positive for pregnancy. This is my third pregnancy, and my previous two deliveries were normal.
Regarding my health history: In December 2025, my HbA1c was 7.0. Through strict diet and exercise, I successfully brought it down to 5.6 and reduced my weight from 66 kg to 58 kg by March 2026.
Since I am now pregnant(5 week LMP 26 feb), I have a few specific concerns:
Is it safe for me to continue my current weight-management diet during this pregnancy, or should I make any adjustments for the baby's growth?
Since I achieved diabetes remission (bringing HbA1c from 7.0 to 5.6) before conceiving, is there a high risk of my sugar levels rising again during pregnancy?
What precautions or monitoring should I follow to ensure a healthy pregnancy. Pls advice
Hello! I have been unable to take my Xulane BC patch for nearly one month. Ive been on it for nearly 10 years. Its unavailable for purchase near me. Once I fly back home I can restart. What can I expect in terms of side effects of not having it? Please keep in mind that Im not using it for preventing pregnancy. I'm using it to manage my hormonal issues with PCOS, Endometriosis, Adenomyosis, etc. What can I do to navigate the moodiness, irritability, etc until I can put the patch back on? How long will it take for my cycle to balance again?

Had unprotected intercourse on March 16 for a few minutes, but ejaculation did not occur inside the vagina. Within about 8 hours, I took an emergency contraceptive pill (Unwanted 72).
My last menstrual period started on March 3, and my cycle is usually regular (around 30 days). According to my ovulation tracker, ovulation was expected around March 19–21.
On March 30, around 1 PM, I started experiencing abdominal pain, and then I noticed that my period had started. I had bleeding twice during the day, then again around 11 PM the same night. The next day, I had slight bleeding again around 8 AM.
After that, there was no bright red bleeding. I only had a small amount of brown discharge once, and then everything stopped.
The bleeding was not continuous and was lighter than my usual periods.
I am concerned about:
Whether this bleeding is normal after taking an emergency pill
Whether this could be implantation bleeding
Whether pregnancy is still possible in my case
& the next periods dates
I have endometriosis and chocolate cyst since last 1 year. Doctors gave Dienogest 2mg. Have missed periods for that since October. But cyst size have not reduced since that. Before that if was reducing slightly. Now stopped. Don't know what's the solution to this. Will I have to continue Dienogest lifelong?
