View allI'm really hoping to find a doctor who has experience with treating intramural fibroids. I'm looking for someone who can make me feel comfortable and also guide me through my pregnancy treatment. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
Finding the right doctor for intramural fibroid treatment can be challenging, especially when you're looking for someone who can provide a comfort zone and support your pregnancy treatment. When searching for a doctor, look for obstetricians or gynecologists with experience in treating fibroids, particularly intramural ones. You can ask questions like: What treatment options do they recommend? Do they have experience with pregnant patients? What's their approach to managing fibroid-related complications during pregnancy? Some doctors may recommend watchful waiting, while others might suggest surgical interventions like myomectomy or uterine artery embolization. It's essential to discuss your individual situation and determine the best course of action.

I'm just wondering how long we should wait to be intimate again after my wife had a cesarean operation and underwent family planning. Could you let us know what's a safe timeframe for recovery before we get together?
After a cesarean section and family planning procedure, it is generally recommended to wait at least 6 weeks before engaging in sexual activity. This allows for proper healing and reduces the risk of complications. It is important to follow your doctor's advice and attend any follow-up appointments to ensure everything is healing properly.
