I've been dealing with really intense pain every month, and I usually rely on Maftal Spas tablets to help manage it. But honestly, even with the medication, it still hurts a lot. Is there any way to reduce or even minimize the pain? Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated.

Just got another USG report and it's attached here. Could you take a look and let me know if surgery is really necessary or if there are other treatment options we could try? Really unsure about the next steps here.

I'm kind of worried because I missed my period. My last one started on March 3rd and I took a home pregnancy test on April 5th, which came out positive. I also got a BETA HCG test the same day and the levels were at 309.1 mIUml. Can you let me know if these results definitely mean that I'm pregnant? And if so, is there any indication from the HCG levels about whether it's a healthy pregnancy?

Your pregnancy test results are positive. In order to determine whether it is a healthy pregnancy, you will have to consult an obstetrician and undergo a panel of antenatal blood tests and scans.
