I've been diagnosed with a fibroid outside my uterus and have lower abdominal pain. Is surgery necessary for this, or can the fibroid shrink on its own over time? Are there any medicines that can help reduce it without causing side effects?

I have a question about my periods. After having physical relations, I took an I-pill and got my period last month, but I haven't gotten it this month. Could there be a chance of pregnancy? Can you explain in detail?

How painful is a colposcopy?

A colposcopy is nearly pain-free. You might feel pressure when the speculum goes in. It might also sting or burn a little when they wash your cervix with the vinegar-like solution.

I'm 8 days late for my period, which is unusual since they're usually regular. I took a home pregnancy test and it came back negative, but I'm experiencing leg pain and there's a white milky discharge. Can you help me understand what's going on with my body?

Its possible that stress, hormonal changes, or other factors like infection could be affecting your cycle, even with a negative pregnancy test. The leg pain and milky discharge might also indicate something like an early hormonal imbalance or a vaginal infection. Its best to follow up with your doctor for a more thorough evaluation if your period doesn't start soon.
