Question

I'm 25 and just found out I have a dermoid cyst near my right ovary it's 10x7x9 cm. My doctor recommended laparoscopic surgery, but I'm wondering if there are other options since I also have PCOD. What else can be done about this?

For your 10x7x9 cm dermoid cyst near your right ovary, while laparoscopic surgery is the most common approach, other options exist, especially considering your PCOD diagnosis. Watchful waiting with regular follow-up scans, hormonal contraceptives to reduce cyst formation, or surgical removal of the cyst alone (cystectomy) without removing the ovary (oophorectomy) are possibilities. Your doctor can help determine the best course of action based on your specific circumstances and preferences

Question

I'm really worried because after having sex with my girlfriend, I gave her Unwanted 72. An hour later, she started having a headache. She felt better the next day, but then in the afternoon, her head began hurting again, this time not as bad. However, by nighttime, the pain got really intense. Could this be a side effect of the pill? What should I do to help her feel better?

Question

I'm a bit confused about corpus luteum cysts. I read that they're connected to ovulation and menstruation, and nothing to do with being sexually active, but a gynecologist mentioned to me that it's not possible if you're not sexually active. Can you clarify how they actually develop?

Question

I've been diagnosed with an ectopic pregnancy at 6 weeks and my doctor prescribed a 100mg Methotrexate injection, which I took today around 4pm. Since then, I've had constant but bearable pain is this normal? I really want to avoid surgery. Can I take any painkillers for this? Would appreciate your advice.
