I'm looking for some advice on an issue my spouse and I are facing. We've been married for six years and have a five-year-old daughter. We were apart for a while due to work, so we really haven't had regular penetrative sex in a bit. Now, when we're trying to get back into it, my spouse says she feels irritation in her vagina during penetration, even though we have a lot of foreplay and she's wet before we start. It's causing us to have trouble having intercourse. Should we be using a lubrication gel or is there any other remedy you'd suggest?

It sounds like your wife may be experiencing vaginal dryness or irritation. A good solution could be using a water-based lubricant like KY Jelly or Astroglide, which can help reduce friction and provide comfort during intercourse. If the issue persists, its best to consult a gynecologist for a thorough evaluation.

View allI'm a bit worried because I had a mammography test about three years back, which showed a fibroadenoma of 1.8 cm. I got married last year, but the tumor is still there. What should I do now?
Fibroadenomas are typically benign and often dont require treatment unless they cause symptoms or grow. Since your tumor has remained stable at 1.8 cm for 3 years, it's generally safe to monitor it. However, I recommend a follow-up ultrasound or consultation with a specialist to assess any changes and discuss your options for management.

I've been really stressed since I had sex on July 10 and July 26 with different partners, both times using protection. The first guy finished inside the condom, and the second didnt finish at all. Im now 40 days late on my period and starting to worry. I took three pregnancy tests on August 11, 29, and 31, and all came back negative. This week, Ive been dealing with a nasty fever, cough, and severe headache for three days. The fever was pretty bad for the first two days but got better on the third. I also felt pretty nauseous then, almost threw up a couple of times, but didnt actually puke. Plus, I had this mild pain in my left breast earlier in the morning, but it later disappeared. Im wondering if theres a chance I could be pregnant or if its just stress from my hectic lifestyle. Would love some advice here.
Based on the details you shared, including the use of protection, the negative pregnancy tests, and the timing, its highly unlikely that you are pregnant. The delay in your period may be due to stress, illness, or hormonal fluctuations. If your period doesnt arrive soon, consider consulting a doctor for further evaluation. Take care!

I'm feeling a bit worried about this. Is it okay to take medicine for a fever while I'm on my period? Could it mess with my cycle at all?
