I'm experiencing delayed periods almost every month, and I'm curious if this is normal. Also, could it affect my chances of conceiving in the future?

I'm really concerned about what's going on with my vulva. It feels really itchy and sensitive, and I've noticed I keep getting these cuts or tears where my labia minora attaches. Sometimes they even bleed. The area around my vulva, especially where the hair starts, is really dry and looks white, plus it's super itchy. There's this white layer covering the vulva, and the whole area seems unusually dry. On top of that, there's a foul smell that I can't ignore. What could be causing all these symptoms, and what should I do about it?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of a yeast infection or a bacterial infection in the vulva area. I recommend using an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole 1% cream twice a day on the affected areas. Additionally, you can take an oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg as a single dose. Keep the area clean and dry, and avoid using scented products or harsh soaps. If the symptoms persist, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm 25 and just found out I have a dermoid cyst near my right ovary it's 10x7x9 cm. My doctor recommended laparoscopic surgery, but I'm wondering if there are other options since I also have PCOD. What else can be done about this?

Watchful waiting with regular follow-up scans, hormonal contraceptives to reduce cyst formation, or surgical removal of the cyst alone (cystectomy) without removing the ovary (oophorectomy) are possibilities. Your doctor can help determine the best course of action based on your specific circumstances and preferences

I've just had a follicular study on day 14 of my cycle, and it showed I have a mature follicle in my right ovary that's 21x23 and another on the left side that's 23x24, so it seems like two eggs might rupture. I'm wondering if this increases my chances of having twins? Also, I've been experiencing some lower stomach pain on the left side and I'm a bit concerned about it. Can you help clarify things for me? I'm feeling a bit confused about what's going on.

-Hello! If both the right and left ovaries have mature follicles, there is a possibility of releasing two eggs, which could result in a twin pregnancy. However, it's not guaranteed, as successful fertilization of both eggs is required. The lower stomach p
