I'm curious about the safety of oral sex with my partner. We've never been with anyone else, and we're both in good health. We're interested in exploring this intimately in our marriage, but we want to know if it's safe for our health, especially since we're quite health-conscious. Could you advise us on this?

Oral sex is generally safe for a healthy, monogamous couple with no history of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Since both of you are medically fit, there is minimal health risk. Maintaining good hygiene and regular health check-ups ensures it remains a safe and enjoyable part of your intimacy.

My bartholin cysts keep coming back and they're so painful, sometimes they even burst on their own. Can you explain all the treatment options like marsupialization or surgery, and what actually works best long-term?

For recurring and painful Bartholin cysts that burst on their own, several treatment options exist, with marsupialization and surgery being common choices. Marsupialization, a surgical procedure, creates a permanent opening in the cyst, allowing fluid to drain freely, while other surgical options can include simple incision and drainage or, in more complex cases, removal of the Bartholin gland. While marsupialization can offer long-term relief for some, others may find that the cysts return, and surgical removal may be the best option for long-term resolution. It's crucial to consult with a healthcare provider to determine the most appropriate treatment based on your individual needs and medical history.

I have a 4.9 cm ovarian cyst on my left ovary and attached my scan report. Could you check and let me know if surgery is necessary or if it can be treated with medication? Also, is there a chance it might go away on its own with lifestyle changes?

Functional ovarian cysts usually go away without treatment. If your cyst is likely functional, your provider may suggest a wait-and-see approach. You may have a follow-up ultrasound within a few weeks or months after your diagnosis to see if your cyst is getting larger, smaller or changing in any other way.
