I've been taking folic acid and multivitamins for three months now, and my husband just had minor piles surgery. Should we be careful about anything during his recovery or with my supplements? I'm a bit worried about how this might affect us

Folic acid supplements are safe, and your husband should follow post-operative care for piles. No major precautions are needed unless advised by the surgeon.

There are other treatment options like uterine fibroid embolization (UFE) or medication to shrink fibroids.

My mom is 49 and just found out she has multiple uterine fibroids with a bulky uterus and distorted shape. What could happen if she doesn't get treatment and what are her options? Is surgery usually recommended for this and what are the risks involved?

If left untreated, multiple uterine fibroids and a bulky uterus can lead to severe pain, excessive bleeding, anemia, and potentially infertility or complications during pregnancy. Treatment options range from medication to reduce symptoms and shrink fibroids to surgical removal of fibroids or the uterus. While surgery is an option, it's not always the first choice, and other options like medication, uterine artery embolization, or focused ultrasound may be considered. The decision of whether or not to proceed with surgery, and which surgical option is best, depends on the severity of symptoms, the size and location of the fibroids, and the patient's individual circumstances
