Can uterine fibroids be treated with medication or are surgery and procedures the only options? I'm really worried and want to know if there are non-surgical ways to manage or cure them

Yes, uterine fibroids can be treated with medications in addition to surgical and procedural options. Many women find that medication is an effective way to manage fibroid-related symptoms, and in some cases, even reduce the size of the fibroids

I'm a bit concerned because yesterday I did some dry humping while wearing my panties and shorts, and this morning I noticed some black accumulation that might be blood. Should I be worried about this? I'm not a virgin, so I'm a bit confused about what's going on. Can you help me understand what this could be?

Its possible that the black accumulation you noticed is old blood, which can happen due to friction or minor irritation. Since you're not a virgin, it could also be related to your menstrual cycle. If the symptoms persist or you experience discomfort, it's best to consult a healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation.

I've got my scan results, and it shows Crl at 0.48cm, G.A is 6 weeks 1 day, E.D.D is 12042022, Heartbeat is regular at 124Bpm, and a summary of normal pregnancy size for 6 weeks and 1 day. There's also a left ovarian simple cyst. I'm just wondering, based on these results, should I go for another scan in a week, or is everything looking okay for now?

Gynaecologist opinion is advised to the patient.
