Your Estimated Due Date (EDD) can be calculated several ways — from your last menstrual period (LMP), from the date of conception, or from an early ultrasound. Each method has a different precision. This guide explains Naegele's Rule, LMP calculation, and what Indian doctors typically use.
A BMI of 25 is "overweight" for a Western adult, but research shows South Asians carry significantly more body fat at the same BMI — and face higher metabolic risk. The WHO recognises lower BMI thresholds for Asians. Here is what the research says and why it matters.
You can only conceive during a 6-day fertile window each cycle. Knowing when that window opens — and how to track it — is the most effective way to improve your chances of getting pregnant. This guide explains the biology and the math behind ovulation tracking.
The first 13 weeks of pregnancy are the most critical period of fetal development. From implantation to the first heartbeat to the NT scan — here is what happens week by week, what symptoms to expect, and which tests are scheduled in trimester one.
Sleep science is clear: most adults need 7–9 hours. But the exact amount depends on your age — and more important than hours is timing your wake-up to the end of a 90-minute sleep cycle. Here is what the research says and how to use a sleep calculator.
