I've been having pain in my left breast for the past couple of days and I can feel a lump inside. Could this be a sign of something serious?

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

I'm really worried about something that happened last night. My wife and I got into an argument, and out of frustration, she took 21 Femilon contraceptive pills all at once. Her period is supposed to start on April 8th, and she has PCOS. We're actually trying to conceive and were focusing on her fertility period. Could this overdose affect her health or the possibility of her conceiving? She was also taking Evacure pills. I'm kinda lost about what to do next.

Can you get pregnant on your period?

Yes, although it's not very likely. If you have sex without using contraception, you can conceive (get pregnant) at any time during your menstrual cycle, even during or just after your period.
