My wife has been experiencing this irregular pain in her breast, usually with mild intensity. Its mainly on the outer part and even extends to under her arm. She mostly feels it when she touches the area. Were trying to understand what could be causing this and what remedies might help. Any insights would be appreciated.

Can we eat ice cream during periods?

Having a lot of dairy products is not the best idea, as it can cause cramping. Dairy products like milk, cheese, and ice cream contain arachidonic acid (an omega-6 fatty acid), which can increase inflammation and can intensify your period pain.

I've been diagnosed with a 4.5cm chocolate cyst and my doctor suggested laparoscopic surgery. Is this procedure safe and will it affect my chances of getting pregnant afterward? Also how long does recovery usually take after this type of surgery?

Laparoscopic surgery for a chocolate cyst is generally safe and can even improve fertility chances after surgery. While there are some risks associated with any surgery, the laparoscopic approach is minimally invasive, reducing the risk of complications. Recovery usually takes a week or two, with most activities resumed within that timeframe
