I'm 38 weeks pregnant and I've noticed a watery discharge with some white in it since this morning. Could this mean my water is breaking? I'm really worried and would love some advice on what steps to take next.

It sounds like you may be experiencing a watery discharge, which could be a sign of your water breaking, but it can also be normal pregnancy discharge. Its important to check if the fluid is clear, odorless, and continues to flow, which may indicate your water has broken. I recommend calling your doctor or going to the hospital to get checked for peace of mind.

View allI've been having lower abdomen pain and my USG and CT scan showed endometriosis and likely adenomyosis. The doctor suggested surgery but I'm unsure since I've been married for 5 years with no child yet. I take Droton DS for pain relief but I'm worried about what to do next. Can you advise if surgery is the best option or are there other treatments to consider first?
Surgery is one option for endometriosis and adenomyosis, but fertility-focused medical management may be considered first—consult a gynecologist for tailored guidance.

I'm in my 7th month of pregnancy and started having this cough since last night. Could you suggest any remedies? I'm really concerned if this could be harmful to my baby.
As a pregnant woman in your 7th month, it's essential to manage your cough safely; consider trying warm liquids like tea or broth, honey, and saline drops; avoid cough medicines containing alcohol, caffeine, or codeine; instead, opt for pregnancy-safe cough medications like dextromethorphan or guaifenesin, after consulting your obstetrician; in general, a cough itself doesn't harm the baby, but underlying conditions like pneumonia or bronchitis can, so monitor your symptoms and seek medical attention if they worsen or persist.

I've been diagnosed with a chocolate cyst in my left ovary and I'm not sure what surgery to go for should I just get the cyst removed or opt for a hysterectomy too? I'm worried about how this might affect me long-term and what the best option would be for my health
Cyst removal alone is usually sufficient for chocolate cysts. Hysterectomy is rarely necessary unless there are multiple complications or future fertility is not a concern.
