It's understandable to be concerned about your mom's post-hysterectomy recovery, especially with her reduced appetite and pain. While some pain and discomfort are normal in the weeks following surgery, persistent pain and difficulty eating warrant further evaluation by her gynecologist. A full recovery can take several weeks, and it's important to monitor for signs of complications like infection.

I'm really concerned about my wife. She started having sudden shivering at night, and it's the third day of her monthly period. There's no fever, so I gave her hot milk and a 650 mg dose of paracetamol. I'm trying to understand what might be causing this. Could it be related to her period, or is there something else going on?

Shivering may be caused due to hormonal imbalance or dehydration and muscle cramps. It is advisable to get a blood test done for safety, but there should be no major cause for concern.

I'm really worried because my husband has mentioned that he's not as interested in our intimacy anymore. I think my vagina might have become looser over time. Can you please give me some advice or suggest ways to help me tighten it? I'm looking for something effective, as I want to improve our relationship.

To tighten your vagina, try Kegel exercises (squeeze and release pelvic muscles for 10-15 reps, 3-4 times a day), pelvic floor physical therapy, or vaginal cones; also, consider incorporating estrogen-boosting foods, like soybeans and flaxseeds, into your diet, and maintain a healthy weight; however, it's essential to remember that vaginal looseness is a common issue, especially after childbirth or aging, and open communication with your partner about your concerns and feelings can also help address the emotional aspect of this issue.
