I'm really concerned about my journey trying to conceive - it's been 23 months of trying, and I'm getting worried. My periods are regular, and all my blood tests, like TSH and prolactin, have come back normal. The only thing is my blood sugar is in the pre-diabetic range. Now I've found out about this myometrial cyst, and I'm wondering if it could be affecting my ability to conceive. Could this be a reason for the delay, and what should I do about it?
A myometrial cyst is a benign fluid-filled cyst in the muscle layer of the uterus, usually not related to fertility issues. Since your periods are regular and other tests are normal, it's a good sign, but pre-diabetes can affect fertility. It's a good idea to manage your blood sugar levels for better chances of conception.

how can i tell if i have gynecomastia is it something that can go away with diet and exercise or do i need surgery and what would the surgery cost be

While diet and exercise can help with overall weight loss, they may not completely resolve gynecomastia if it's due to hormonal imbalances or glandular tissue growth. If you notice a firm, rubbery lump, or if it's accompanied by pain, swelling, or asymmetry, you should consult a doctor. Surgery, which can involve liposuction and tissue removal, is often the best option for addressing gynecomastia. Gynecomastia surgery in India can cost between Rs. 40,000 and Rs. 60,000,
