View allI found out I have a 9 mm intramural myoma in my uterus and I'm 26 and unmarried. Is this size dangerous and what kind of impact could it have? Also, if I need surgery, are there any risks or harmful effects I should know about?
A 9mm intramural fibroid, while a benign growth, doesn't usually cause immediate danger, but it's essential to monitor it. At your age and with no current fertility goals, the immediate impact is likely minimal. However, if you plan for future pregnancies or experience any concerning symptoms (heavy periods, pain), seek medical advice to discuss potential treatment options and manage any future risks

Is it possible to have your period 3 times a month?
Stress, usage of birth control pills, PCOS , are few reasons for menstrual disturbances. Imbalances in the hormonal secretion may result in period disorders as well. The primary hormones contributing to having a period three times a month include female sex hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, Luteinizing Hormone (LH), and Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH). Other than these, higher testosterone levels can also result in period 3 times in one month. Furthermore, anomalies in Thyroid levels may result in irregular periods as well.

I'm feeling really concerned about something. I got an HSV IgG test result of 0.85 and I've been noticing some redness in the genital area, along with itching and these weird tingling pains in my thighs. Does this mean I have herpes or could it be something else? What's confusing me more is that when I did a test last month, it came back negative. Can you tell me if these results might be accurate and suggest any treatment options?
Yes that could be Herpes,need to take antiviral medicines and topical creams ,visit Dermatologist for appropriate management
