I have an 8cm ovarian cyst and really want to avoid surgery are there any medicines that can shrink or remove it? I'm worried about the size and hoping for non-surgical options.

While some ovarian cysts naturally resolve without treatment, an 8cm cyst might require medical intervention. There isn't a specific medication to shrink or remove an existing ovarian cyst. However, certain medications can help manage symptoms and potentially prevent new cysts from forming. If the cyst is causing pain, discomfort, or other issues, or if it's not a functional cyst, surgery (laparoscopy or open surgery) may be recommended

View allI'm four months pregnant and I'm wondering if it's safe for me to fly. I don't have any complications so far. Do you think it's better to travel by air, or should I stick to traveling by car or train?

I'm a bit worried and hoping you can help. On the 5th day of my period, is there a chance I could get pregnant? My menstrual cycle usually lasts around 28 to 30 days. Also, is it okay to have sex while I'm on my period?
It is unlikely to get pregnant on the 5th day of your period, especially if your menstrual cycle lasts for 28-30 days. However, it is not impossible as sperm can survive in the body for up to 5 days. To be safe, you may consider using contraceptive methods if you are not planning for pregnancy. It is generally safe to have sex during periods, but the risk of pregnancy is still present. It is recommended to use protection to prevent unwanted pregnancies and reduce the risk of sexually transmitted infections.
