I have a 4.4cm functional follicular cyst on my left ovary with benign features but my periods have been irregular and frequent happening twice recently Will this cyst resolve on its own or do I need surgery
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A functional follicular cyst of this size is likely to resolve on its own. It's common for them to disappear within a few months, and your doctor may recommend a "wait-and-see" approach with a follow-up ultrasound to monitor its size. If the cyst doesn't resolve or if you experience symptoms like pain or pelvic fullness, surgery might be considered. Surgery is also recommended if the cyst is very large or if there's suspicion of a more complex cyst

I'm a bit worried about my situation. I had an ectopic pregnancy that was found at 8 weeks in, and my doctor gave me a methotrexate injection since my hCG level was 39,000. A week later, I was prescribed methotrexate tablets for ten days. After taking the tablets the first day, I started bleeding heavily for five days. Then, after a two-day gap, the bleeding was more like a normal period but without any pain. My hCG levels have been decreasing steadily, and now they're at 601. Does this mean my problem is resolving, or should I be worried about anything else?
It is important to monitor hCG levels to ensure they continue to decrease until they reach non-pregnant levels. To help clear the ectopic pregnancy completely, you can continue taking methotrexate tablets as prescribed by your doctor. Additionally, it is essential to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and monitoring of hCG levels to confirm resolution of the ectopic pregnancy. If you experience any concerning symptoms such as severe pain, heavy bleeding, or dizziness, seek medical attention promptly.

I've been worried about the size of my labia minora, which is quite large. I'm curious if getting married might cause it to grow even bigger. Right now, it's about half an inch, and I'm hoping to find a way to reduce the size naturally with ayurvedic treatment since I'm not earning yet and want to avoid surgery. Is there any exercise or natural method that can help with this?
In terms of exercises, there are no specific exercises that can reduce the size of the labia minora. However, pelvic floor exercises, such as Kegels, may help improve muscle tone in the pelvic area. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider or an Ayurvedic practitioner before starting any treatment to ensure it is safe and appropriate for you.
