My mom is 47 and just found out she has a grossly enlarged uterus with intramural fibroids. The uterus measures around 6.2x7.7x7.3 cm and the fibroids are about 4.8x4.3x4.1 cm. Her hemoglobin is really low at 5. She's against surgery what other options can we explore to manage this?

Question

I had my HSG test on the 6th of August, and thankfully, the results were normal. My gynecologist suggested that I try to conceive naturally this cycle, but if it doesn't happen, then we should consider doing a follicular study next cycle. I'm wondering if there's a good chance I could conceive this cycle. Right now, I'm on day 9, and in my previous ovulatory follicular study cycles, I've typically ovulated on day 12 or 13. So I'm a bit unsure about when my husband and I should try. Would meeting on day 11, 12, or 13 be ideal?

Question

I'm planning to have my first-time intercourse and I'm really anxious about the potential pain. I've heard that lox 2 jelly might help with that, but is it actually safe to use in the vagina for the first time? Would it be effective, or could it cause any problems? I'm looking for some advice on whether it's a good idea to try it out.

Question

My wife was diagnosed with PCOD and has a large cyst in her left ovary. The doctor recommended surgery due to the cyst size, but we're hesitant about going under the knife. Are there any alternative treatments or options we can explore first?
