I'm really concerned because I've noticed a swelling near my clitoris. I'm a virgin, and there's no bleeding, but one side has been swollen for about three days now. It's super itchy sometimes, and I can definitely feel the swellingit hurts a lot. I always keep my whole body clean and wash my vagina every time I pee. I can't figure out why this is happening, and it's really scary. Can you help me understand what's going on?

A swollen and painful area near the clitoris, accompanied by itching, in the absence of bleeding or sexual activity, could be caused by various factors such as a Bartholin's cyst, ingrown hair, vaginal infections like vulvovaginitis, or other conditions like herpes or eczema, so it's essential to consult a gynecologis

View allCan someone with blocked fallopian tubes menstruate?
Yes, blocked fallopian tubes interfere with the passage of ovum and thus may lessen the chances of pregnancy. Menstruation occurs when one shreds a layer of uterus and blocked fallopian tubes may not interfere with it.

I've been having some issues with my periods being late by over 15 days sometimes, and lately, I've felt like vomiting, been really hungry, and kind of dizzy. My usual date was April 18, and I'm worried that I might be pregnant. How soon can I check to see if the result is positive or negative? Also, I accidentally drank pineapple Rasna juice before I knew you're not supposed to have pineapple when trying to conceive. Could this cause any problems like a miscarriage if Im actually pregnant? I'm really stressed about it and would appreciate some advice.

My mom needs open abdominal surgery to remove fibroids but our insurance only covers a general 6-bed ward in a well-known Mumbai hospital. Would she be better off staying there or going for a twin-sharing room in a smaller hospital? I'm worried about her comfort and recovery.
I can understand your concern. With your health policy documents comes a document in which all the affiliated hospital names are listed. Whichever you find the best, you can go there and get it operated. Any gynecologist would be able to perform this surgery. Therefore you have to consult a gynecologist of your choice and a hospital of your choice as per your insurance and then consult there.
