My sonogram showed a 17x16mm follicular cyst in my right ovary. Will this go away on its own or do I need surgery for it? I'm really worried about what this means for me.

I'm 22 weeks pregnant and for the past two days, I've been dealing with a bad cold, nasal congestion, and coughing. Is it okay if I try steam inhalation with neem leaves?

Steam inhalation with neem leaves is not recommended during pregnancy as it may not be safe for the baby. You can try using a humidifier in your room to help with nasal congestion. You can also try saline nasal drops to help with nasal congestion. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I had a D&C for a blighted ovum on the 1st of October and here we are a month later on November 1st, and I still haven't gotten my period. My doctor is out of town, so I'm unable to consult her right now. Can I go ahead and take Deviry 10mg to try and induce my periods? I've taken it before based on my doctor's advice. Is it okay to take Deviry a month after a D&C to help start my period?

Wait for a week more ,if its still delayed then visit your docotor for appropriate management.

I've been a bit anxious lately because back in December, I used Meprate tablets to delay my period, and I did get my period once I stopped taking them. But the thing is, now it's January, and I haven't had my period yet. I'm really wondering if this could be a side effect from the Meprate I took last month, or should I be thinking about taking a pregnancy test? What's your take on this?

u test it first
