View allI'm really worried about what's happening with me and my husband. We've been having great sex for a year, but lately, it's like he can't fully enter me. It feels like there's something blocking or that I'm just too tight, and he also says it feels different and is uncomfortable, sometimes even painful for him. Could this be related to the fungal infection I had last month? What can we do about this?

My mom has been having heavy bleeding and the doctors said her uterus wall is thickening based on scans. They recommended surgery since this happened before 18 months ago too but now the wall is thicker. Her blood levels dropped from the bleeding and they quoted around 50k for the procedure scheduled this Saturday. Is surgery the best option given her history and current condition?
It's understandable to be concerned about your mom's health. The thickening of the uterine lining (endometrial hyperplasia) and the subsequent heavy bleeding, especially with the blood level drop, are serious issues. Surgery might be a reasonable option, especially if the previous episode occurred 18 months ago and the condition has worsened
