Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

Acute stabbing pain and swelling in the abdomen. The pain and swelling are caused by the release of chemicals from the fibroids as the cells die. Fever is another sign of fibroid shrinking.

I'm feeling a bit concerned. My friend recently hugged her partner, and their lower private parts accidentally touched. She had on underwear and track pants, and he was wearing underwear and shorts. Is there any chance she could get pregnant from that?

No, it's highly unlikely that your friend could get pregnant in this situation. For pregnancy to occur, sperm needs to enter the vagina, which wasn't the case here. It's important to stay informed about safe practices to prevent any worries.
