My mom has two large fibroids around 2.6 to 2.8 cm and the report says there are multiple fibroids. She's dealing with heavy bleeding during her periods but no other symptoms. Is there a way to treat this without surgery or an operation?

Your mother's fibroids, even if 2.6 to 2.8 cm, can contribute to heavy bleeding, and the presence of multiple fibroids can amplify this. A doctor should evaluate the severity of her symptoms and assess the location and size of the fibroids to determine the best course of treatment

I'm experiencing some pain during my first trimester of pregnancy, and it only lasts for a minute or so each time. I'm starting to get worried because I've heard this could be a sign of an ectopic pregnancy. Could you help me understand what's going on?

I'm usually pretty regular with my menstrual cycle, like 30 to 32 days. But this month, I'm 18 days late, and I'm not sure why. I've done both urine and blood pregnancy tests, and they're negative. I'm not stressed or on any meds, so I'm really confused about what's going on. Any ideas on what might be causing this? What should I do next?

Given your regular 30-32 day menstrual cycle and negative pregnancy tests, the missed period could be due to various factors, such as hormonal imbalance, Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), thyroid issues, or other underlying medical conditions; other potential causes include weight changes, travel, or environmental factors; consider consulting a gynecologist for a thorough evaluation
