An ectopic pregnancy happens when a fertilized egg implants outside of your uterus, most commonly in your fallopian tube.

I'm really worried because there's minimal free fluid in my pelvis, and I've been having severe stomach pain. I was admitted to a nearby hospital, and the MD observed me, but my condition hasn't improved. Can anyone suggest what the underlying issue might be, or if there's a specific direction we should explore for better treatment?

Hydrocele can be uncomfortable. Since you're not experiencing pain, you can try the following non-surgical methods to reduce the size: 1. *Elevation*: Elevate your scrotum while sitting or lying down to reduce swelling. 2. *Supportive underwear*: Wear supportive, loose-fitting underwear to reduce pressure. 3. *Exercise*: Regular exercise, like cycling or swimming, can help improve circulation and reduce swelling. 4. *Dietary changes*: Increase your intake of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains to improve overall health. If these methods don't help, consider consulting a urologist for surgical options, such as hydrocelectomy.

I'm dealing with a fungal infection and my clitoris is really swollen. It's gotten so bad I can barely walk. I've already tried taking Levoiz and Emanzen D but I'm not seeing any improvement. Can you help me understand what's going on and suggest what I should do next?

I'm feeling a bit worried because I had protected sex with my boyfriend a couple of days before I was supposed to get my period, which was due on December 5th. It's now December 16th, and I'm late. A few days ago, I had some mild stomach pain and noticed light blood spots. Could this mean I'm pregnant, or is there another reason this might be happening?
