So, I've been having these cramps in my lower abdomen for the past three days, and they feel different than my usual period cramps. My period is late by about five days now, and I took a home pregnancy test two days ago, but it came back negative. Plus, there's this stretchy white discharge going on. My periods usually run on a 30 to 36-day cycle. Should I see a doctor about this?

View allI'm 3 months pregnant and just found out I have an 8 cm posterior wall uterine fibroid. Is this dangerous? Do I need urgent surgery? I'm hoping to have another baby in the future, and my first delivery was a C-section. If I do need surgery, I'm worried about having multiple procedures like removing the fibroid first, then another for the baby, and maybe even a hysterectomy later. That would mean 4 surgeries in my lifetime. What should I do?
myomectomy is advised,gynaec opinion is advised.

I'm 33 weeks pregnant and just had a sonography that showed the cord around the baby's neck. What should I do? Can you give me some advice?
Hello, 25% of babies are born with the cord around their neck one or more times. Most people hear the cord was around the neck and freak out thinking their baby could strangle. The thing we forget is they don't actually breathe inside the womb. They get their oxygen through the cord. The only way it could cause a problem is if the umbilical cord became so compressed that it completely cut off the cord blood flow. Which usually happens when you get labour contractions,, at that time doctors will monitor heart rate of baby, if heart is is dropping during contractions or Baby not able to headdown our doctor will go for cesarean section, if nothing unusual vaginal delivery can be expected. Talk you your doctor.

I'm a 32-year-old woman with a 3-year-old kid and have been having heavy periods. My gynecologist recommended a pelvic scan, which showed an echogenic polyp measuring 22.7x16.7mm in the anterior endometrial cavity with no color flow. I had a laparoscopic surgery in 2016 and my pap smear was negative. Is this polyp something serious or can I leave it as it is? What should my next steps be?
You should go for HYSTEROSCOPIC removal of polyp and endometrial biopsy for further evaluation as it is showing endometrial hyperplasia You should do your beta HCG measurement also
