View allI'm 26 weeks pregnant and I've been feeling like I might be leaking amniotic fluid. I'm also noticing that my baby has hiccups quite a lot these days. I'm worried about how quickly the amniotic fluid might decrease if there's a leak and what I should be looking out for in upcoming scans. Can you help me understand what's happening and what steps I should take?

I'm a 24-year-old woman dealing with some issues that are really worrying me. I've been in a stable relationship for quite a while and have been sexually active for about six years. Usually, everything's okay after sex, but sometimes, two days later, I get really painful vaginal discomfort. It's not all the time, but it's been happening more often. Also, my periods last for about 12 days, which feels longer than usual, and I've been diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome. I've been on homeopathic treatment for six months. About ten days ago, I had intercourse and have been in severe pain ever since. It's been lingering for the past eight days, and I'm really struggling. What do you suggest I do at this point? It's becoming really tough to handle.
I'm sorry to hear about your pain. Persistent vaginal pain after sex could indicate an infection, irritation, or underlying issue like PCOS-related hormonal changes. Please consult a gynecologist promptly for an evaluation, as timely care is essential for your comfort and health.

What are some non-surgical options for treating fibroids on the inner wall of my uterus if I'm trying to get pregnant? I'm worried about how it might affect my chances of conceiving and want to explore other treatments before considering surgery.
If trying to conceive, medical therapies like GnRH agonists or uterine artery embolization may help shrink fibroids.
