View allI've been feeling a bit worried because I had chickenpox last month and now my periods are delayed, which has never happened before. My period was due on the 4th of November, but I ended up getting chickenpox on the 15th. I'm still on my regular diet and don't have any other issues. Could this delay in my period be linked to weakness from the chickenpox? Can you help me understand what's going on?

I've been struggling with painful intercourse with my husband it feels like hitting a wall no matter how many times we try. We've used different lubricants and gels, but nothing helps. Is there any medical procedure or surgery to help enlarge or break the hymen so we can have successful intercourse?
If painful intercourse is caused by a restrictive hymen, a medical procedure called a hymenotomy can be performed to break or enlarge the hymen. This procedure can help to alleviate pain and make intercourse more comfortable. However, it's important to consult with a healthcare professional to determine if this is the root cause of the pain and to discuss whether a hymenotomy is appropriate for you. There may also be other medical or psychological factors contributing to the pain, so a thorough evaluation is crucial.
