With my PCOS, I had to watch my sugar levels. Focus on complex carbs, finger millet (ragi), green veggies, and lean protein. Consult your doctor or nutritionist for a customized diet chart.

Actually, it's counted from the first day of your LMP, haan na. Quite confusing but that's the doctor's way. Aap tension mat lo, initial weeks just fly by so quickly!

I almost took a Flexon once for my severe backache and then panicked after reading the label. My doctor told me it's good I didn't take it, as ibuprofen is not safe. She prescribed a simple safe pill instead, so please check with your doctor.

I had a lot of numbness and tingling in my left leg during my third trimester, especially when sitting for long. For me, it was just the baby pressing on a nerve, but I can't say if it's the same for you. Try mentioning it to your doctor at your next visit.

Having PCOS made me super cautious about every little symptom, so I tracked everything. Light spotting is common, but actual bleeding can indicate a complication. Please don't wait or ask online—just call your doctor right now to be safe.
