My mom's ultrasound report shows a cyst in her left ovary and a small appendicolith measuring 92.3 mm. Can this be treated with medicine or is surgery the only option?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
For an ovarian cyst, treatment options range from observation and medication to surgery depending on size and symptoms. Small cysts may resolve on their own, while larger or symptomatic cysts might require surgical removal or other interventions. For an appendicolith (a stone in the appendix), treatment depends on the severity of symptoms and the size of the stone. Options include observation, antibiotics, or surgical removal of the appendix (appendectomy).

_Puberphonia: Addressing Voice Concerns and Exploring Treatment Options_ Given your concerns and experiences, here's a summary of puberphonia, treatment options, and recommendations for achieving a deeper, more masculine voice: *Understanding Puberphonia* 1. *Definition*: Puberphonia is a voice disorder characterized by a high-pitched voice in males beyond the age of puberty. 2. *Causes*: The exact cause is unknown, but it's thought to be related to hormonal changes, vocal habits, and psychological factors. *Treatment Options* 1. *Voice Therapy*: Speech therapy is the primary treatment for puberphonia. A speech-language pathologist (SLP) will help you develop proper vocal techniques, such as: - Relaxation exercises - Breathing techniques - Vocal exercises to lower pitch - Speech therapy to improve vocal quality 2. *Hormonal Evaluation*: Consult an endocrinologist to rule out any underlying hormonal imbalances that might be contributing to your high-pitched voice. *Recommendations* 1. *Seek a Specialist SLP*: Find an SLP with experience in treating voice disorders, particularly puberphonia. 2. *Regular Therapy Sessions*: Commit to regular therapy sessions (at least 2-3 times a week) for an extended period (several months). 3. *Practice Consistently*: Regularly practice the exercises and techniques taught by your SLP to reinforce new vocal habits. 4. *Be Patient*: Changing your voice takes time, effort, and patience. Don't expect immediate results, but instead, focus on gradual progress. *Additional Tips* 1. *Record Your Voice*: Record yourself speaking and listen to the recordings to become more aware of your voice. 2. *Relaxation Techniques*: Practice relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, or meditation, to help manage stress and anxiety that may be contributing to your high-pitched voice. Please consult a specialist SLP and an endocrinologist to discuss your specific situation and develop a personalized treatment plan.

I'm really worried because I'm getting married in November, and my fianc doesn't know I'm not a virgin. I had sex when I was 18, and now I'm 21. I've done a lot of fingering too. When I first had sex, it didn't hurt, and there wasn't any blood. I've heard about alum for tightening, and I want to know if it could help. Can you give me any advice on becoming a virgin again or making it seem like I am?
Unfortunately, once you have had sex and lost your virginity, there is no way to get your virginity back
