How dangerous is a left ovarian cyst that measures 51x36x43mm? Will it resolve on its own, or would I need medication or laparoscopic surgery to remove it? I'm really concerned and would like some advice.

A 51x36x43mm ovarian cyst (around 5cm in diameter) is not inherently dangerous, but it's a size that warrants monitoring and potentially further evaluation. It's possible the cyst could resolve on its own, especially if it's a functional cyst related to ovulation. However, larger cysts carry a slightly increased risk of complications like rupture, ovarian torsion, or pressure on other organs, and it's important to rule out malignancy, especially in postmenopausal women.

I've been having some discomfort in my vagina, especially when I'm sitting or walking after having protected sex for the first time. It feels sore, especially around the vestibule, and it sometimes hurts when I pee. I noticed two tiny white spots near the sides of my clit, which feels really sensitive and sore too. I've been taking medication for a urine infection, but my vagina and clit still feel uncomfortable, especially when I'm wearing underwear or tight clothes like jeans. Occasionally, I also feel air bubbles. Is this something I should be worried about? What might be causing these symptoms?

My wife is currently 8 weeks pregnant, and during her last ultrasound, they couldn't detect any cardiac activity. The final report mentioned something about a likely missed abortion. Our gynecologist wants us to continue with the medication since there haven't been any miscarriage symptoms yet. We're pretty nervous about this and are anxiously waiting for the next ultrasound in 10 days. Could you shed some light on what to possibly expect? Is there still a chance for positive news? We're just trying to understand all of this.

Hi, It is usually a very stressful time if a heart beat is not discovered. Sometimes it can come a bit later and sometimes it can lead due to a miscarriage. In a missed abortion if usually dont get any symptoms.

Is taking abortion pills at home safe if I'm only 2 weeks pregnant? A doctor recommended surgery but I was hoping for an oral treatment instead. I need advice on what to do as soon as possible

Medication abortion (or medical abortion) is a safe, reliable and non-surgical means of abortion for people who have made an informed decision that is is the best option for them. Medication abortion is an alternative to surgical abortion in the early weeks of pregnancy (up to 9 weeks)
