I'm a 32-year-old woman with a 3-year-old kid and have been having heavy periods. My gynecologist recommended a pelvic scan, which showed an echogenic polyp measuring 22.7x16.7mm in the anterior endometrial cavity with no color flow. I had a laparoscopic surgery in 2016 and my pap smear was negative. Is this polyp something serious or can I leave it as it is? What should my next steps be?

You should go for HYSTEROSCOPIC removal of polyp and endometrial biopsy for further evaluation as it is showing endometrial hyperplasia You should do your beta HCG measurement also

So, me and my girlfriend had a bit of an intimate moment the other day. Her last period was on March 9th, and on the 19th, we were messing around. She was naked, but I still had my underwear on. Somehow, my penis kind of got into her vagina, but it wasnt deep because of the underwear. I didnt ejaculate, but her vaginal fluids did make a wet spot on my underwear. Now, she's three days late on her period, and it's stressing us out. We've always been really careful about these things, so could there still be a chance she might be pregnant?
In summary, while its possible, the chances of pregnancy in this situation seem quite low, especially since there was no direct ejaculation. However, its always best to check with a test for peace of mind. If youre concerned about the future, using protection (like condoms) during all sexual activity can further reduce the chances of unintended pregnancy.

My wife is about 8 weeks into her pregnancy, and her gynecologist has prescribed Strone 200 for vaginal use. The thing is, shes having a tough time inserting the soft gel vaginally. We're wondering if she could take it orally instead? Or maybe there's another progesterone tablet out there that's suitable for oral intake?
Strone 200, a natural micronized progesterone, is typically administered vaginally, but if your wife experiences difficulties, consult her gynecologist about alternative options, such as oral progesterone supplements like Duphaston (dydrogesterone) or Naturogest (micronized progesterone), but do not switch or take any medication without consulting
