View allI've noticed a white lump between my anus and vagina. It's not painful, but it's kind of hard and seems like it has a little opening on it. Could you help me understand what this might be and if it's something I should be worried about?
You may have a Bartholin's cyst. I recommend using sitz baths to help reduce the discomfort and swelling. You can also use over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen. If the cyst becomes infected, antibiotics such as ciprofloxacin may be prescribed. If the cyst is large or causing significant symptoms, surgical drainage or removal may be necessary.

I've noticed that during sex, my wife often feels pain in her vagina, and I'm worried it might be because my penis is around 7 inches and thick. Is there anything specific we should be doing or avoiding to make things more comfortable for her?

I have a 10.48.2 cm fibroid on the posterior wall of my uterus and my doctor recommended surgery. I'm 25, married, and planning for a baby this year. Will the surgery affect my chances of getting pregnant? Is there any way to treat this without surgery?
A fibroid of that size on the posterior uterine wall can affect pregnancy, depending on its location and symptoms. Surgery (myomectomy) can improve your chances of conceiving by removing the fibroid, but recovery time is needed before trying. Some smaller fibroids can be managed medically or with less invasive procedures, but at your size, surgery is often recommended. Discuss fertility-preserving options with your doctor before deciding.
