I started my period on January 22 and was treated for endometriosis. My doctor advised me to take Meprate 10mg starting February 7, so I did, taking one tablet daily. I finished the course on February 16, which was the 8th day, but I haven't gotten my period yet. Should I wait longer, or could there be an issue?

View allI've noticed a white lump between my anus and vagina. It's not painful, but it's kind of hard and seems like it has a little opening on it. Could you help me understand what this might be and if it's something I should be worried about?
You may have a Bartholin's cyst. I recommend using sitz baths to help reduce the discomfort and swelling. You can also use over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen. If the cyst becomes infected, antibiotics such as ciprofloxacin may be prescribed. If the cyst is large or causing significant symptoms, surgical drainage or removal may be necessary.

I'm really concerned about my episiotomyit still causes me pain, even though it's been three years since I gave birth. It's particularly uncomfortable during my periods and when I'm having intercourse. Should I be worried that this pain hasn't gone away, and is there anything I can do to relieve it?
Episiotomy incision involves the wall of the vagina. Generally, the wall of the vagina is strong, but post surgical intervention, it may weaken. It is important to maintain vaginal wall muscle strength through Kegel's Exercises. Do these everyday to improve muscle strength. If the pain persists, please visit a gynecologist for further evaluation.
