I found out I have a 9 mm intramural myoma in my uterus and I'm 26 and unmarried. Is this size dangerous and what kind of impact could it have? Also, if I need surgery, are there any risks or harmful effects I should know about?

A 9mm intramural fibroid, while a benign growth, doesn't usually cause immediate danger, but it's essential to monitor it. At your age and with no current fertility goals, the immediate impact is likely minimal. However, if you plan for future pregnancies or experience any concerning symptoms (heavy periods, pain), seek medical advice to discuss potential treatment options and manage any future risks

So, my wife and I are thinking about trying anal sex, and we're not exactly sure where to start with lubricants. Is there a specific type you would recommend that's available at a medical store? Also, are there any other tips or suggestions you'd have for us?

You can use KY jelly. However it's not flavored. You may go for durex gel as well, which you can find in different flavors

I'm a 28-year-old woman, and I just went through an abortion at 4 weeks. After I stopped bleeding for 7 days, I ended up having intercourse on the 8th day, and then started taking Femilon regularly. I'm keeping up with the pills, but I'm worried and want to know if there's still any chance I could be pregnant now.

I'm taking regestrone 5mg tablets because my gynaecologist suggested them since my periods got delayed. We had unprotected sex and he ejaculated inside. I'm really worried about getting pregnant now. What are the chances of becoming pregnant while taking regestrone? Just so you know, I did a pregnancy test before starting regestrone and it came back negative.

Regestrone is a synthetic progestin that helps regulate the menstrual cycle. While it can help with delayed periods, it is not a contraceptive method. The chances of getting pregnant while on regestrone are still present, especially if unprotected intercourse occurs. It is important to use additional contraceptive methods to prevent pregnancy. If you are concerned about pregnancy, you may consider emergency contraception like Levonorgestrel 1.5mg as a precautionary measure within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse.
