I've got this hard lump behind my right nipple, and when I squeezed it, this yellow pus-like stuff came out, and now the lump seems smaller. It's weird because it only seemed to be on my right side, but I tried squeezing my left nipple too, and some liquid came out, which kinda hurt. I'm just wondering if this is normal or if there's something I should be worried about?

I had laparoscopic ovarian drilling surgery two days ago and my doctor recommended IUI treatment next month. What are the chances of getting pregnant naturally after this procedure or should we stick with IUI for better success?

After laparoscopic ovarian drilling, approximately 40-60% of women become pregnant within a year, with about 50% of those pregnancies being spontaneous. While IUI can increase pregnancy rates, ReproductiveFacts.org states that ovarian drilling is a one-time treatment, while IUI requires monthly interventions. If ovulation and menstrual cycles are still irregular after drilling, or if other fertility issues exist, IUI might be recommended for increased success rates
