Question

I just had a baby 5 months ago through surgery at a government hospital and I want to breastfeed for 6 months. Can I get a medical certificate to extend my leave? I have my baby's birth certificate but not sure how the process works for getting the certificate. Can you explain what I need to do?

Question

I've been having some burning and pain down there after some oral and fingering. It even bled a bit after a few days, but I thought maybe that's normal since it was my first time. It's been over a week now, and while it doesn't hurt all the time, the pain and irritation just come and go randomly. Do you think there's something wrong with me?

Question

I've always had regular periods, but I'm a bit worried because they're starting to get delayed. Last month, it was 10 days late, and now it's already been 12 days past the expected date, and still nothing. I haven't had intercourse, so I'm sure pregnancy isn't the issue. My period dates have been March 12, April 10, and May 19. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

Question

I've had a lump in my right breast, around 35 cm, slightly toward the lower side, for about 5 years now. Tried homeopathy but didn't see much improvement. Got a mammogram in 2017 which showed it's a fibroadenoma, and the doctor advised removing it soon, but I'm not keen on surgery. Can it be treated with medication instead? If not, what could happen if I leave it since it doesn't bother me much just occasional mild pain during my period. Also, my periods have been irregular for the past 23 months, sometimes late by 2-3 days or up to a week, but recently it was two weeks late. Could this be related to the lump? Should I be worried?
