My 16-year-old cousin has a 3.5cm dermoid cyst in her left ovary. Is surgery the only option or are there other treatments that could help? We're worried about what this means for her.

View allI'm taking regestrone 5mg tablets because my gynaecologist suggested them since my periods got delayed. We had unprotected sex and he ejaculated inside. I'm really worried about getting pregnant now. What are the chances of becoming pregnant while taking regestrone? Just so you know, I did a pregnancy test before starting regestrone and it came back negative.
Regestrone is a synthetic progestin that helps regulate the menstrual cycle. While it can help with delayed periods, it is not a contraceptive method. The chances of getting pregnant while on regestrone are still present, especially if unprotected intercourse occurs. It is important to use additional contraceptive methods to prevent pregnancy. If you are concerned about pregnancy, you may consider emergency contraception like Levonorgestrel 1.5mg as a precautionary measure within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse.

I'm 31 and had my first IUI on August 17th. I had four follicles around 21-24mm and my husband's sperm count was 110 million. Now it's the fifth day post-IUI and I'm feeling mild cramping in my lower back and abdomen, similar to period cramps, but my period isn't due until September 4th. Should I be concerned about these symptoms or schedule a visit with my gynecologist?
The mild cramping you're experiencing five days post-IUI is likely due to ovulation or implantation, but to confirm and alleviate concerns, schedule a follow-up appointment with your gynaecologist around 14-16 days post-IUI for a pregnancy test

I experienced a mild pain during sex with my boyfriend two nights ago and initially thought it was just due to deep penetration. However, right after, I started feeling this severe, sharp pain in my lower abdomen and rectum so intense I could barely stand or walk. I've been having a hard time peeing and passing gas, felt extremely bloated, even vomited, and also had the urge to poop. Could this be something serious or is it a normal reaction? What should I do?
That's usually normal after first intercourse no need to worry that will subside on its own, maintain personal hygiene and take proper rest
