I accidentally bit into my birth control pill before swallowing it. I'm worried if this affects how well it works. Should I take another pill just to be safe, or is it okay to stick with my usual dose?

I'm a bit worried because I had a mammography test about three years back, which showed a fibroadenoma of 1.8 cm. I got married last year, but the tumor is still there. What should I do now?

Fibroadenomas are typically benign and often dont require treatment unless they cause symptoms or grow. Since your tumor has remained stable at 1.8 cm for 3 years, it's generally safe to monitor it. However, I recommend a follow-up ultrasound or consultation with a specialist to assess any changes and discuss your options for management.

I'm wondering if it's possible to lose virginity without having any blood spots. I didn't notice any blood after losing my virginity, but I got my period a few hours later since it was supposed to come around that time anyway. It's making me a bit confused. Can you help explain if blood spots aren't always present?

Yes, it's possible to lose virginity without any blood spots. The presence or absence of blood can vary based on individual anatomy, such as the elasticity of the hymen. Menstruation can also coincide with this, which may cause confusion, but it doesn't necessarily mean the hymen wasn't stretched or torn.
