I'm trying to figure out if the Chinese gender predictor really works for determining the sex of a baby. Ive come across some stuff online, and now Im just really curious. Is there any truth to it, or is it more of a myth?

I noticed a small lump about the size of a pea under my skin near my clitoris about a month ago. It disappeared but now it's come back and feels like a hard little ball. What could this be and should I be worried?
It sounds like you might be dealing with a benign cyst, possibly a Bartholin gland cyst or a blocked gland. While it's usually not a cause for concern, it's a good idea to get it checked by a healthcare provider to rule out any issues and get proper advice on how to manage it.
