Question

Can sperm actually get through cotton clothes and cause a pregnancy? My girlfriend and I were fooling around with dry humping. We both had on our underwear and shorts, but she's now late on her period. Should we be worried about pregnancy?

Question

I'm about 8 weeks pregnant, and my doctor has given me a prescription for Fertigyn 5000IU. Im kinda worried because I read somewhere that it's not usually prescribed when youre pregnant. Is it really safe to use this?

Question

I'm really concerned about my wifes situation. She's got these two chocolate cysts on her right ovary, and our gynecologist advised her to take Lupride Depot 3.75 injections monthly for three months to shrink the cysts and prevent damage to ovarian tissue during surgery, which could lead to infertility. Her periods have been a bit strange since we started this treatment. Her last one was on August 19th, but before that, she got it on August 1st. We gave her the injection on August 5th, within those five days of her cycle starting. But now, she got her period again earlier than expected. I thought it makes sense to take the next injection within five days of this new period, but the gynecologist says it should be given on the same date as last month, like September 5th. I'm a bit confused hereshould we stick to the once-monthly schedule, or go with the period dates?
