Yes, you can take paracetamol or ibuprofen before a hysteroscopy with local anesthesia to help with cramping. It's generally recommended to take them 1 hour before the procedure. You may take ibuprofen 400mg every 8 hours or paracetamol 1 gram every 6 hours

I'm really worried because my wife has been diagnosed with fibroadenoma in her right breast, and it's positioned just above her ovary. Our doctor thinks surgery is the best option, but I'm not entirely sure and feel like I need a second opinion on whether this is necessary. What do you think? Could there be any other treatment options we should consider?

Yes,surgery is advised to the patient.Surgeon opinion for further management.

I'm a bit worried because I didnt really have ejaculation during intercourse, but just to be safe, I took an i-pill within 2 hours. I have PCOS and hypothyroidism, and my last period was on August 23rd with a 27-day cycle. I took the pill on September 2nd, and now my period still hasn't arrived. Ive been having period-like cramps since yesterday, but there are no periods, and Im also experiencing back pain. Could there be an issue with the pill or something else going on?

I'm just wondering if I'll need to have a cervical stitch if we decide to go for a second pregnancy. Last time, during my second trimester, I had a cervical cerclage because of two previous miscarriages. My first child is 2 years old now, and I'm curious if this procedure would be necessary again. Any advice you could share would be really helpful.

Since you had a cervical cerclage during your second trimester in your previous pregnancy due to a risk of miscarriage, it's possible that your doctor may recommend a cervical stitch again for a subsequent pregnancy kindly consult your gynecologist
