I've been trying to conceive for 13 years and have PCOD. My left fallopian tube is slightly damaged according to an HSG done in 2012. My current gynecologist is recommending laparoscopic surgery but previous doctors never suggested it. Is this surgery really necessary or are there other options I should consider?

View allI'm really worried because I took the unwanted kit but I'm not bleeding. Should I try taking another one? If so, how many days should I wait? I'm 4 weeks pregnant and not considering surgical abortion. What should I do?
If there is still no bleeding after a few days, you should have an ultrasound. If you still do not bleed within a few days (and you are positive that you were pregnant), then you may have either an ectopic pregnancy or a continuing pregnancy and you should have an ultrasound

I'm wondering if it's okay for my friend to start using Femilon, especially since she's taken emergency contraceptive pills like i-Pill and Unwanted 72 three times in the last four months. I'm curious about any side effects she might experience with Femilon, and I'm also worried if there could be any long-term issues like infertility. Whats your take on this?
Common side effects of Femilon include nausea, headache, breast tenderness, weight changes, and changes in menstrual bleeding patterns. It is generally safe to use Femilon after using emergency contraceptive pills multiple times. However, it is important to consult a healthcare provider before starting any new medication. Regarding long-term effects like infertility, there is no evidence to suggest that using Femilon will lead to infertility. However, prolonged and frequent use of emergency contraceptive pills is not recommended as they are intended for emergency use only. It is advisable for your friend to discuss her contraceptive options with a healthcare provider to determine the most suitable method for her.

I'm having really bad period cramps and it's making it hard for me to get anything done. I just want to lie down all day. Do you know if Combiflam or Meftal Spas is better for this? I'm looking for something that's not too strong because I'm worried about getting used to heavy-duty painkillers in the long run. Any suggestions?
If you are looking for something less strong and less likely to cause addiction or long-term harm, Meftal-Spas might be a good option for you because it combines a muscle relaxant (Dicyclomine) with pain relief, making it a little more targeted for cramps. However, both are NSAIDs, which should be used cautiously, especially if you have any stomach or kidney issues.consult your doctor to evaluate pain
