I'm not sexually active, and when I am, it's like once every three months or so. I don't smoke, but I do have a beer every now and then. I'm wondering if there's a way to change this or if there's something I should be doing differently?
It's important to address any underlying physical or emotional factors that may be affecting your sexual health. Low frequency of sexual activity can be influenced by stress, lifestyle, or relationship dynamics. If you're concerned, consider speaking with a healthcare professional to explore potential causes and solutions, including lifestyle changes, managing stress, or improving communication with a partner.

I noticed a solid mass behind my left ovary measuring around 5 mm. Is surgery necessary for this or can it be dissolved with medication? What would you suggest?
A solid mass behind the ovary measuring 5mm, while concerning, does not automatically necessitate surgery. A doctor will likely recommend monitoring with ultrasound scans and blood tests to assess any changes over time. Medication is not typically used to dissolve solid masses, but hormonal birth control may be suggested if the mass is part of a cycle-related ovarian cyst and to prevent future cysts. If the mass grows, shows concerning characteristics, or causes symptoms, surgery might be needed, but it's not usually required for such a small solid mass
