I have an 8cm simple left ovarian cyst and I'm wondering if minimally invasive surgery would be a good option for me to get it removed
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Yes, minimally invasive surgery (laparoscopic cystectomy) is generally a good option for removing a simple ovarian cyst, especially if it's 8 cm and causing symptoms or has persisted. It usually results in faster recovery, less pain, and minimal scarring. However, final decision depends on imaging findings, symptoms, and your overall health—please consult your gynecologist.

View allI'm dealing with something that's been bugging me and could really use some advice. I was diagnosed with minor PCOD back in July 2015. My periods were delayed back then, but they eventually started happening naturally without any medication. To be on the safe side, I went ahead with PCOD treatment, and that's when my anxiety kicked in, which I find a bit confusing. So, after about three months, my ultrasound reports came back normal, and my PCOD seems to be cured. But there's this one thingmy periods are now really scanty, only bleeding for about a day. I used to bleed for around 3 days before all this started. Some people tell me it's all in my head, probably because of high stress and my anxiety disorder. It's confusing because I feel like PCOD might be the root cause of my anxiety, but now that it's supposedly cured, I'm wondering why my periods aren't normal. Any thoughts on what's going on with me?
reduce your stress. Maintain the regular diet and start doing exercises

Is it possible to have your period 3 times a month?
Stress, usage of birth control pills, PCOS , are few reasons for menstrual disturbances. Imbalances in the hormonal secretion may result in period disorders as well. The primary hormones contributing to having a period three times a month include female sex hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, Luteinizing Hormone (LH), and Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH). Other than these, higher testosterone levels can also result in period 3 times in one month. Furthermore, anomalies in Thyroid levels may result in irregular periods as well.

I'm wondering if it's possible to lose virginity without having any blood spots. I didn't notice any blood after losing my virginity, but I got my period a few hours later since it was supposed to come around that time anyway. It's making me a bit confused. Can you help explain if blood spots aren't always present?
Yes, it's possible to lose virginity without any blood spots. The presence or absence of blood can vary based on individual anatomy, such as the elasticity of the hymen. Menstruation can also coincide with this, which may cause confusion, but it doesn't necessarily mean the hymen wasn't stretched or torn.
