Exercises that target pelvic floor muscles are to be done.To find your pelvic floor muscles, stop urinating in midstream or tighten the muscles that keep you from passing gas. Both actions use your pelvic floor muscles. Once you've identified your pelvic floor muscles, you can exercise them in any position. However, you might find it easier to do them lying down at first. Tighten your pelvic floor muscles, hold for three seconds and then relax for three seconds. Try it a few times in a row. When your muscles get stronger, try doing Kegel exercises while sitting, standing or walking. For best results, focus on tightening only your pelvic floor muscles. Be careful not to flex the muscles in your abdomen, thighs or buttocks. Avoid holding your breath. Instead, breathe freely during the exercises. Repeat three times a day. Aim to do at least three sets of 10 repetitions a day.

I found lumps in both breasts during a sonography the right one is 5.2 x 2.5 cm and the left is smaller. I'm unmarried but sexually active sometimes, and there's no family history of breast cancer. Should I be worried? Do I need surgery or can medication help shrink them?

It's understandable to be concerned about breast lumps, but many are benign and don't require treatment. Your situation, with lumps found on sonography, warrants a medical evaluation to determine their nature and appropriate management. While a larger lump in one breast and a smaller one in the other might raise some flags, it's not necessarily a cause for immediate panic. Several common, benign conditions can cause breast lumps, and your medical history, including your age, sexual activity, and lack of family history, is relevant to the diagnosi
