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?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
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

View allI've been trying to conceive for a year now with no success. I have a 3x3cm intramural fibroid could that be affecting my chances? My first IUI failed, and now my doctor is suggesting fibroid removal. Is this surgery a big procedure, and what's the best option for someone trying to get pregnant?
Yes, many patients with fibroids can get pregnant. But to improve your chances of a healthy pregnancy, it's best to discuss your goals and priorities with your doctor. If fibroids are having an impact on your quality of life, a gynecologic surgeon can discuss treatment options that can help preserve your fertility.

I'm 22 weeks pregnant and for the past two days, I've been dealing with a bad cold, nasal congestion, and coughing. Is it okay if I try steam inhalation with neem leaves?
Steam inhalation with neem leaves is not recommended during pregnancy as it may not be safe for the baby. You can try using a humidifier in your room to help with nasal congestion. You can also try saline nasal drops to help with nasal congestion. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm really curious and a bit nervous about having sex for the first time. What should both my partner and I know or do to make sure it's a good and safe experience for us both since it's our first time?
To have a good first-time sexual experience, it's important to communicate openly with your partner, take things slow, and prioritize each other's comfort and consent. Make sure to use protection to prevent sexually transmitted infections and unwanted pregnancies. It's also important to be aware of each other's boundaries and to stop if either partner feels uncomfortable. As for contraception, you can consider using condoms to prevent STIs and also consider using emergency contraceptive pills if needed.
