I'm really struggling because I had my tubes tied 8 years ago, and now I can't afford IVF or anything like that. I'm just wondering if there are any over-the-counter hormone pills that could help me get pregnant. Any advice would be appreciated.

Tubal ligation is a reversible procedure. In order to increase chances of pregnancy, you should first have TLR procedure done. Following this, you can visit a specialist to get a prescription for fertility enhancement medication.

Is there any way to treat gynecomastia without surgery? I've been doing exercises but they don't seem to help at all. Can it go away on its own or do I need medical intervention?

Yes, there are non-surgical treatments for gynecomastia, and exercise alone may not be enough to significantly reduce breast tissue. While exercise can help reduce overall body fat and build chest muscles, it might not address the glandular tissue itself. Medications, hormone therapy, and procedures like cryolipolysis or ultrasound therapy can also be effective. Some cases of gynecomastia, especially those caused by hormonal imbalances or puberty, may also resolve on their own over time
