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?

  1. Pregnancy Likelihood

    • Sperm cannot pass through cotton clothes or underwear. Pregnancy from dry humping with clothes on is extremely unlikely.
  2. Missed Period Causes

    • A missed period can result from various factors, including stress or hormonal changes, not just pregnancy.
  3. Next Steps

    • If pregnancy is a concern, consider taking a home pregnancy test for reassurance.
  4. Further Action

    • Consult a healthcare provider if there are ongoing concerns or irregularities in the menstrual cycle.

Recommended next steps

My mom has stage 3c ovarian cancer and has done 3 chemo cycles but it doesn't seem to be working well. She's down to just 27kg and one doctor suggested debulking surgery. I'm really concerned how risky would surgery be at her current weight and what are her chances of pulling through

Debulking surgery at 27kg in a patient with advanced ovarian cancer presents significant risks, but also potentially offers a chance at better outcomes. While the surgery itself is risky due to the patient's weakened state, it could reduce the tumor burden and potentially improve response to subsequent chemotherapy. The decision should be made after careful consideration of all factors, including the patient's overall health, the extent of the cancer, and the potential benefits of surgery.

I'm a bit concerned because my period is late by 12 days. I've been taking apple cider vinegar before bed every night. Could this be causing the delay? What should I do about it?

I'm on my 8th day of bleeding, and my periods usually last just 4 days. This time, I've had clots for 4 days and then light bleeding for the next 4 days. It's day 8 now, and I'm getting a bit concerned. Is there any medication I should consider taking?

Frequent Bowel Movements and TB Diagnosis _Normal Bowel Movement Frequency_ 1. 3-4 times a day is considered normal. 2. 5-6 times a day may indicate an issue, such as: - Gastrointestinal infection - Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) - Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) _TB Diagnosis Concerns_ 1. _TB diagnosis requires confirmation_: A single symptom, like frequent bowel movements, is not enough to confirm TB. 2. _Additional tests are necessary_: Your doctor should have ordered additional tests, such as: - Stool tests - Blood tests - Imaging studies (e.g., X-rays, CT scans) - Endoscopy or colonoscopy _Next Steps_ 1. _Seek a second opinion_: Consult another doctor to confirm the diagnosis. 2. _Request additional testing_: Ensure that all necessary tests are conducted to confirm or rule out TB. 3. _Follow-up appointment_: Schedule a follow-up appointment to discuss test results and determine the best course of action.
