I'm a bit worried because it's been about 20 days since my C-section, and now I'm noticing some puss coming out from the incision. There's a sort of pimple or bubble that's formed along the incision line. Is this something I should be concerned about? What could be causing it, and should I see someone about it?

It sounds like there might be an infection at the incision site, which can happen after surgery. I recommend seeing your doctor as soon as possible to have the area examined, and they may suggest draining the pus and possibly prescribing antibiotics to help with the infection. Take care of the wound by keeping it clean and avoiding any irritation.

My mom is 50 and has been having lower abdomen pain for days. Her USG scan shows a retroverted uterus and low lying prolapse. How serious is this and will she need surgery

A retroverted uterus and low-lying prolapse can cause lower abdominal pain and may or may not require surgery, depending on the severity and symptoms. A retroverted uterus (tilted backward) is common and often doesn't cause symptoms, but can sometimes be associated with pain, especially during menstruation or intercourse. Uterine prolapse, where the uterus descends into the vagina, can range from mild to severe and may cause discomfort or interfere with daily activities. Treatment options vary, with mild cases often managed with pelvic floor exercises and lifestyle changes, while more severe cases may require surgery.

I'm really concerned about my wifes situation. She's got these two chocolate cysts on her right ovary, and our gynecologist advised her to take Lupride Depot 3.75 injections monthly for three months to shrink the cysts and prevent damage to ovarian tissue during surgery, which could lead to infertility. Her periods have been a bit strange since we started this treatment. Her last one was on August 19th, but before that, she got it on August 1st. We gave her the injection on August 5th, within those five days of her cycle starting. But now, she got her period again earlier than expected. I thought it makes sense to take the next injection within five days of this new period, but the gynecologist says it should be given on the same date as last month, like September 5th. I'm a bit confused hereshould we stick to the once-monthly schedule, or go with the period dates?

Kegels and Reverse Kegels for Premature Ejaculation (PE) _Understanding the PC and BC muscles:_ 1. _PC muscle_: Pubococcygeus muscle, responsible for ejaculation and orgasm. 2. _BC muscle_: Bulbocavernosus muscle, helps control ejaculation and supports the penis. _Kegels vs. Reverse Kegels:_ 1. _Kegels_: Contracting and releasing the PC muscle can strengthen it, but may not directly help with PE. Over-toning the PC muscle might even contribute to PE. 2. _Reverse Kegels_: Relaxing the BC muscle can help relax the pelvic floor, potentially delaying ejaculation and improving control. _Recommendation:_ 1. _Try Reverse Kegels_: Focus on relaxing the BC muscle to help manage PE. 2. _Combine with other techniques_: Use Reverse Kegels in conjunction with other methods, such as: - _Start-stop technique_: Stop and start sexual activity to regain control. - _Squeeze technique_: Squeeze the PC muscle to pause ejaculation. - _Breathing exercises_: Practice relaxation techniques to reduce anxiety.

I took some medical pills for an abortion when I was about 5 weeks pregnant. My doctor prescribed me one tablet of mifepristone and two misoprostol tablets, but instead of letting them dissolve under my tongue, I ended up swallowing them with water. Now I've gotten my period, but I'm worried. Is there a chance I could still be pregnant?
