I'm dealing with some itching and dryness around my vaginal area and inner thighs, and it's been going on for about a month now. I'm trying to figure out whether I should see a dermatologist, a urologist, or a general physician about this. Could you guide me on who would be the best specialist to consult for these symptoms?

I had a sterilization procedure done 8 years ago after having two daughters. Now I'm hoping to have a boy is there any treatment or surgery that could help me conceive again? What options do I have?

Sterilization reversal is complex and rarely successful; IVF with gender selection is illegal in India but consult fertility specialist for safe advice.

I'm really concerned about my internal os being open in a U shape as shown in my anomaly scan. The doctors mentioned that getting a cervical stitch might be risky because the sac is already in the opening. Do you think that this opening could naturally close if I stick to bed rest for a few days? Its been stressing me out, and I would really appreciate some advice on what I should do next.

yes
