I'm 8 weeks pregnant and for the past week, I've been having some mild on and off lower abdominal pain. I had an ultrasound and everything looked normal, so no ectopic pregnancy or ovarian cysts, and my urine routine came back normal too. I'm just a bit worried about the pain and wondering if it's something I should be concerned about or if there are any other tests or precautions I should consider?

The mild lower abdominal pain you are experiencing could be due to the normal changes that occur during pregnancy. However, it's important to monitor this symptom and inform your healthcare provider if it persists or worsens. In the meantime, you can try taking acetaminophen (Tylenol) for pain relief, following the recommended dosage on the package. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest.

Which delivery is more painful?

Vaginal delivery is the most common and safest type of childbirth. You'll probably hear the term ânatural childbirthâ .The risk for discomfort after the birth is greater due to normal and expected surgical pain along the incision and abdominal soreness. These discomforts can last for several months. There is an increased risk for rupture of the C-section scar during subsequent deliveries and subsequent pregnancies.

my doctor said I have stage two endometriosis after my first hysterectomy and now they're recommending completion surgery but I'm not getting clear reports can someone explain what this means and what to expect

Stage 2 endometriosis after hysterectomy means residual disease in other pelvic areas; completion surgery removes remaining ovaries or lesions to control symptoms.

I was recently diagnosed with a 90 mm fibroid in my uterus I'm 31 and unmarried. My doctor recommended an abdominal myomectomy, but I don't have any pain right now. Is it okay to wait on the surgery or should I get it done sooner?

90‚ÄØmm fibroid in unmarried 31-yr-old with no pain should be monitored;if growth continues or symptoms develop,myomectomy is advised;delay is acceptable with follow-up.
