I've been having issues with intercourse because of tightness in my vagina it feels like there's not enough space, and it's causing a mental block too. Is there any surgical option to help widen the area? I'm really hoping to conceive soon and wondering what my options are.

It sounds like you're experiencing Vaginismus, a condition where the vaginal muscles involuntarily tighten, making intercourse painful or difficult. While there's no surgical option to permanently widen the vagina, there are effective non-surgical treatments that can help relax the muscles and address the mental block, paving the way for easier intercourse and a smoother path to conception.

Can a girl lose her virginity without knowing?

A woman may not know her hymen has broken, because it doesn't always cause pain or noticeable bleeding. Having a broken hymen doesn't necessarily mean a woman has lost her virginity.

I'm worried because my period is supposed to start right around my brother's wedding day, and I really want to delay it. Is there a safe way to do this, and how would it affect me? I'm not sure what medication options are available or if there are any natural methods I could try. Can you help me figure out the best way to postpone my periods just for this occasion?

Generally, progesterone tablets are used for this purpose...you should start 5 days prior to the expected date till you want to postpone.10 mg tablets are used twice daily or 5 mg thrice daily and you will get withdrawal bleeding within 7 days when you stop tablets...You may have a heavier period after stopping the tablet.consult for nearby gynae for the same
