my mom has had painful periods for 34 years and now doctors are recommending ovary removal surgery but I'm really scared about the operation - is this the only option or are there other treatments we can try first
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Chronic painful periods may indicate endometriosis or fibroids; ovary removal is a last resort after trying hormonal and medical therapy options.

View allI've been diagnosed with a few myoma tumors in my uterus and I'm really worried is surgery the only option or are there other treatments I can explore? I'd love to understand my choices better
MRI-guided focused ultrasound (FUS) is a noninvasive treatment option for uterine fibroids that destroys fibroids while preserving the normal uterus. Focused high-frequency, high-energy sound waves are used to target the proteins in fibroids, until they are destroyed.

I'm feeling really concerned because my husband mentioned he's not satisfied during our intimate moments. He says my vagina feels loose, and it's too wet and sticky, which seems to be putting him off. I'm a mom of two kids, and I'm just not sure what to do about this. Can you give me some advice?

I've had three c-sections over the past 3.5 years, and I'm really struggling. During my first pregnancy, there were some complications with the blood flow, so they did an emergency c-section in the 7th month, but unfortunately, my baby boy passed away after 39 days in the NICU. Now, I have two daughters who are 2.5 years and 10 months old, born at 36 and 37 weeks. My high blood pressure was only a problem during those pregnancies because of the protein levels. I'm just constantly feeling down because I really want another chance to have a son. Is it possible for me to go through a fourth c-section? If it is, how long should I wait before trying? I'm eager for your advice.
Considering your complex medical history, including three C-sections, reversal of flow, preterm births, and hypertension, it's crucial to consult your obstetrician and a fertility specialist; they will assess your overall health, uterine health, and potential risks before advising on a fourth C-section, which may be possible after a minimum gap of 2-3 years, but a thorough evaluation is necessary to determine the best course of action.
