Found a cystic structure in my left adnexa and the report says it might be mild hydrosalpinx. Is there any way to treat this without going through surgery? I'm a bit worried about what this means for my health

Yes, there are options to manage mild hydrosalpinx without surgery. Sclerotherapy, which uses an ultrasound-guided needle to drain fluid and inject a chemical to prevent refill, is a potential alternative. Additionally, watchful waiting with follow-up ultrasounds may be an option if the cyst is small and not causing symptoms. surgical treatment to unblock the tube doesn't restore fertility, in vitro fertilization (IVF) can bypass the need for the fallopian tube.

Question

I'm kind of worried because it's been almost a month since I had sex with my girlfriend, and she still hasn't gotten her period. I read that sometimes cycles can be late, so I'm trying not to panic yet. But, just in case she is pregnant, I was wondering if there's a way to prevent it aside from abortion, which honestly seems really scary. Are there any other options we should consider?

Question

I'm really confused right now. My period is two weeks late, but every pregnancy test I've taken says I'm not pregnant. I don't even have any usual pregnancy symptoms, just a missed period. What could be going on here? Should I be worried, and what should I do next?

Question

I've been hearing a lot about Tiffa and 4D scans during pregnancy. Is there any connection between the two? And do you think a 4D scan is really necessary?
