I just found out I have an ovarian cyst from an ultrasound two days ago and I'm really worried about it. Is there any way to treat it without surgery? What are my options if I want to avoid going under the knife?

Yes, many ovarian cysts can be managed without surgery. A common approach is "watchful waiting," where your doctor will monitor the cyst with follow-up ultrasounds. In some cases, medications like birth control pills or other hormone treatments may be prescribed to prevent new cysts from forming or to manage symptoms. Home remedies like pain relief and heat therapy can also help ease symptom

My mother is 45 and has been dealing with gynecological issues for the past three years. She had uterus surgery back in 2015 and has been consulting Dr. Shipra Rani and Dr. Hemlata, who are known as the best gynecologists in Singrauli, Madhya Pradesh. But now they're saying she needs to see a higher specialist outside our area. I'm really worried what could be the issue that they haven't been able to diagnose? Where should we go for better help, and are there any precautions we should take in the meantime?

I've been experiencing some upper chest pain for a few days now. At first, I thought it was breast pain, but now it feels like the pain is more spread out around the area of my breast. I recently started wearing a wired bra about a week ago, and the pain began around the same time. Even though I've stopped wearing that bra, the pain hasn't gone away. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?
