I'm trying to figure out the right dosage to delay my periods. They're supposed to start on the 22nd, but I'd like to push them back by four days. A friend mentioned it's possible, but I'm hearing mixed advice about how many pills to takesome say two a day, others say just one. Could you please help clarify what's actually needed?

I'm feeling really concerned because my husband mentioned he's not satisfied during our intimate moments. He says my vagina feels loose, and it's too wet and sticky, which seems to be putting him off. I'm a mom of two kids, and I'm just not sure what to do about this. Can you give me some advice?

I have fibroids one outside the uterine wall and three inside the uterus but outside the cavity. Two are quite large, so my doctor suggested laparoscopy surgery. Can you explain how this procedure works? Is it similar to a C-section where the uterus is stitched, and could it affect my fertility in the future?
