Question 1

I'm wondering if it's okay for my friend to start using Femilon, especially since she's taken emergency contraceptive pills like i-Pill and Unwanted 72 three times in the last four months. I'm curious about any side effects she might experience with Femilon, and I'm also worried if there could be any long-term issues like infertility. Whats your take on this?

Accepted Answer

Common side effects of Femilon include nausea, headache, breast tenderness, weight changes, and changes in menstrual bleeding patterns. It is generally safe to use Femilon after using emergency contraceptive pills multiple times. However, it is important to consult a healthcare provider before starting any new medication. Regarding long-term effects like infertility, there is no evidence to suggest that using Femilon will lead to infertility. However, prolonged and frequent use of emergency contraceptive pills is not recommended as they are intended for emergency use only. It is advisable for your friend to discuss her contraceptive options with a healthcare provider to determine the most suitable method for her.

Question 2

I have a 4.9 cm ovarian cyst on my left ovary and attached my scan report. Could you check and let me know if surgery is necessary or if it can be treated with medication? Also, is there a chance it might go away on its own with lifestyle changes?

Accepted Answer

Functional ovarian cysts usually go away without treatment. If your cyst is likely functional, your provider may suggest a wait-and-see approach. You may have a follow-up ultrasound within a few weeks or months after your diagnosis to see if your cyst is getting larger, smaller or changing in any other way.
