I'm 22 and haven't had sex in over a year, but I'm having issues with irregular periods. I saw a gynecologist who said I need a blood test and ultrasound to figure out what's going on. She mentioned it might be due to some fat above my uterus. I'm curious, can she find out if I'm a virgin from those tests?

I'm living in the Czech Republic and recently had a laparoscopic myomectomy. It was on February 23rd, and I just got home from the hospital after 5 days. The surgery was a bit tricky because the fibroid was quite large, about 7cm, and I ended up losing 1000ml of blood. The surgeon mentioned I should wait about a year before trying to conceive so that the scar has enough time to heal. I'm curious about what I should expect post-surgery, specifically concerning my menstrual cycle. Also, my belly seems a little swollen, almost like I've gained weight, and I'm puzzled about what's causing it. Is it okay for me to start doing yoga? And should I continue taking Folic acid tablets? Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.

Pregnancy with Mitral Heart Disease _Safety of Continuing Pregnancy_ 1. _High-risk pregnancy_: Your pregnancy is considered high-risk due to your pre-existing mitral heart disease. 2. _Close monitoring_: Your cardiologist and obstetrician will closely monitor your condition throughout the pregnancy. 3. _Risk of complications_: There is a risk of complications, such as heart failure, arrhythmias, or stroke, during pregnancy and childbirth. _Surgery After Delivery_ 1. _Open-heart surgery_: Your cardiologist recommends open-heart surgery after delivery to address the severe mitral regurgitation. 2. _Valve repair or replacement_: The decision between valve repair and replacement will depend on the surgical evaluation of your valve condition. _Surgical Options_ 1. _Valve repair_: Repairing the mitral valve can preserve the natural valve and avoid long-term anticoagulation. 2. _Valve replacement_: Replacing the mitral valve with a mechanical or bioprosthetic valve may be necessary if the valve is severely damaged. _Precautions During Pregnancy_ 1. _Regular check-ups_: Attend regular check-ups with your cardiologist and obstetrician. 2. _Monitor for symptoms_: Watch for signs of heart failure, such as shortness of breath, fatigue, or swelling. 3. _Avoid strenuous activities_: Avoid strenuous activities and lift heavy objects.

I've got these blisters on one of the lips of my vagina, and it's super painful. I've been experiencing some burning and itchiness too. I always have protected sex, but about a few weeks ago, I did receive oral sex. Should I be worried about this? What could it be?

Blisters on one lip of your vagina along with pain and itching could be indicative of genital herpes. Since you mentioned receiving oral sex a few weeks ago, it is possible that you have contracted herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) genitally. I recommend taking antiviral medication such as Acyclovir (400mg three times a day) or Valacyclovir (1 gram twice a day) to help manage the symptoms and reduce the duration of the outbreak. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry, wearing loose cotton underwear, and avoiding sexual contact until the blisters have healed can help in the healing process.
