Large or persistent ovarian cysts, or cysts that are causing symptoms, usually need to be surgically removed. Surgery is also normally recommended if there are concerns that the cyst could be cancerous or could become cancerous. There are 2 types of surgery used to remove ovarian cysts: a laparoscopy.

I'm struggling with infertility and in a recent ultrasound, my doctor found an endometrial polyp. Can you help me understand the difference between a hysteroscopy and an endometrial biopsy in this context? I'm not sure why my doctor decided to do the biopsy instead, and I'm feeling a bit anxious about what it all means.

I've been wondering if it's really possible to regain that virgin-like feeling. Is there anything that can help with the tightness of the vagina or the hymen? Can you suggest any treatments or medicines for this?

It's important to understand that the concept of "feeling virgin again" is not medically possible, as the vagina does not "seal" after intercourse. However, if you're concerned about vaginal tightness or changes, it can be influenced by factors like muscle tone, hormonal changes, or childbirth. I recommend consulting with a gynecologist who can provide personalized advice and possible treatments, such as pelvic floor exercises or other medical options.
