I'm a bit confused and worried because my new doctor didn't give me progesterone after ovulation, which my previous doctors always did. I'm doing Timed IC this cycle and just had a trigger shot, and they've asked me to have intercourse for the next five days, but without progesterone. Is it still possible to conceive if I ovulated with letrozole but wasn't given progesterone?

conception is possible both with and without progesterone supplementation, but progesterone can help support early pregnancy. Be sure to stay in touch with your doctor and continue with your treatment as planned.

I'm a bit worried about my grandma who's 84. She's been taking Cordarone 200mg since June for her heart issues. But recently, during a health checkup, they found her thyroid levels to be really high, like 30.91H. They've put her on medication for that too. Is it safe for her to keep taking Cordarone with this thyroid issue?

Can gynecomastia be treated without surgery and does it really cause infertility in men who have it

Gynecomastia, or enlarged male breast tissue, can sometimes be treated without surgery, particularly in cases of mild or early-stage gynecomastia, or when it's caused by excess body fat (pseudogynecomastia). However, more severe or glandular-based gynecomastia often requires surgical intervention. While gynecomastia itself doesn't directly cause infertility, a hormonal imbalance that contributes to gynecomastia can sometimes also affect fertility.
