I'm kind of worried because it's been almost a month since I had sex with my girlfriend, and she still hasn't gotten her period. I read that sometimes cycles can be late, so I'm trying not to panic yet. But, just in case she is pregnant, I was wondering if there's a way to prevent it aside from abortion, which honestly seems really scary. Are there any other options we should consider?

A sudden appearance of a lump or swelling on the penis can be alarming.
Possible causes include:
Injury or trauma during sex Infection (e.g., balanitis) Inflammation (e.g., phimosis) Sexually Transmitted Infection (STI)
Seek medical attention from a urologist or a primary care physician as soon as possible.
Avoid self-diagnosis or treatment, and refrain from sexual activity until you receive a proper evaluation and guidance.

View allI've been worried about traveling on the bumpy roads in Bangalore since I'm 22 weeks pregnant. I need to travel 14km each way to work by bus, and it feels like there's a jerk, pothole, or bump every 10 seconds. I chose the bus over a car or auto thinking it would be smoother, but the bumps still seem pretty intense. Could this be harmful or cause any complications? I'm quite anxious and would appreciate any advice you could share.
Yes you are not supposed to travel on such roads, better to avoid if not , that could lead to serious problems
