I'm really worried because I took the meningitis B vaccine last month, and soon after I got really sick and had to go to the hospital. I'm 18, and on top of it all, my menstrual cycle seems delayed. I did a pregnancy test and it was negative, so I'm trying to figure out if the vaccine could be affecting my period. Is that a possibility?

I've been dealing with a painful Bartholin abscess or cyst and wondering if homeopathy can actually cure it completely or if surgery is the only option. Does homeopathy really work for this and can it prevent it from coming back?

Marsupialization. If cysts recur or bother you, a marsupialization (mahr-soo-pee-ul-ih-ZAY-shun) procedure may help. Your doctor places stitches on each side of a drainage incision to create a permanent opening less than 1/4-inch (about 6-millimeter) long
