I'm 25 and recently got the Nexplanon implant last May. I've never tried birth control before, so I was kind of expecting my body to take some time adjusting to the hormones. Lately, though, I've been feeling more irritable, anxious, and just emotionally all over the place. A friend mentioned trying Ashwagandha to help balance my hormones and reduce my stress. But I'm kind of worriedwould taking this herbal supplement mess with how well the implant works?

I'm thinking about having a second child and really hope for a baby boy to complete our family. My first child is a lovely 3.5-year-old girl. Is there any advice or methods to help conceive a boy?

While it's not possible to guarantee the gender of your baby naturally, some methods like timing intercourse around ovulation or choosing specific positions may slightly influence the odds. However, it's important to remember that the most accurate way to select a baby's gender is through medical procedures like IVF with genetic testing, though these come with ethical and legal considerations.

Had abdominal myomectomy surgery for uterine fibroids and endometriosis cysts 30 days ago but still having incision pain. Is it normal to feel this much discomfort after a month?
