Hi. Pls any medical practitional in the house shd help me out.
I'm tryin to get pregnant. But i took a malaria drug (maladox) around my last Ovulation period cos i felt feverish. My period before then was on 3rd nov. I hav a regular cycle of 26days. I had s.ex on 11th nov. I took d drug on 13th nov and had s.ex again on 15th. Normally going by my cycle i shd get my next period 2morrow 29th but it appeared today 28th after mild cramps for abt 5days now which i dont usually get before. Its obvious d bleedin i'm havin now is my period and not implantation bleeding cos i'v changed a pad today.
Going by my calculations i expected to be pregnant as i cld have Ovulated on the 14th or 15th. Please could the malaria drug hav gotten in the way? Cos it really knocked me out d day i took it and i'm not really used to taking drugs.

Purply better have a doctor or knowledgeable person advise you on the drugs to avoid if you are trying to be pregnant instead of having to take a drug and wonder whether it is okay for you. I know that some worm expellers for deworming are not good to be taken if you are trying to get pregnant especially those that contains mebendazole and metronidazole. I know this because it is always noted on such drugs that you mustn't get pregnant until after 3 months after using them so think back and be sure you did not deworm recently and that you have non of those substances in your system. At this point you need to be reading about any drug you wish to take before taking it. If I were you I will avoid the intake of drugs I can do without except folic acid for now(until you take in and get prescribed the ante-natal care drugs by your doctor), ask a pharmacy student to define drugs for you and hear him/her mention poison. A pharmacy student told me that. I for one never liked drugs. I like my body natural for me and only take drugs when very necessary.

I am sure you know to be taking folic acids days or even months before now as it will help your baby' s spine and body form well. Spinach is a good natural source of folic acid, if I were you I will be including it in my breakfast , lunch and dinner everyday. Anything to have a very sweet looking baby. You go girl, I wish you baby success!

go with ivynwa's advice. go to a doctor in any clinic.

Tnx Ivynwa and Toba. I appreciate ur replies.

I forgot to include that Alcohol is not good for you now, I am sure you know about that. Hope you are feeling better, take care.
