Literally live in the washroom, that's the secret! Wash from front to back, and don't wear tight pants unless you want to invite trouble. Keep drinking water like a fish and you'll be fine.

Go for standard urine strip tests like Prega News, they are 99% accurate if done after a missed period. If there is still doubt, a blood test is the gold standard.

Better to avoid Mediker since it has active chemicals. Wet combing with a fine nit comb is a much safer alternative during these months.

Oh, they kick in right around week 6 to remind you who the real boss of your body is! Currently in my 3rd trimester, struggling to roll out of bed, and missing those symptom-free early weeks. Enjoy the peace while it lasts!

It is generally safe, but make sure your overall health is monitored well. I had thyroid issues and had to visit my doctor regularly for checkups. Just confirm with your gynac during your routine follow-up to ensure there are no specific restrictions for your case.
