View allMy recent USG pelvis scan showed a uterine polyp and bilateral ovarian cysts. The doctor recommended having hysteroscopy and laparoscopy done together. Is it safe to get both surgeries at the same time? What are the pros and cons of combining them versus doing them separately?
To guide you correctly, a thorough assessment is necessary.

I've done a beta hcg test because my periods are late, and the result came back as 0.861 mIUmL. I'm confused about whether this is positive or negative, as my doctor mentioned it should be above 5 mIUmL. Why might this low value show up? I'm really stressed about it and could use some help understanding what's going on.
These are Hormonal Fluctuations so the result is negative for pregnancy. Typically: Non-pregnant levels: < 5 mIUmL. Positive for pregnancy: 5 mIUmL. Low beta hCG can sometimes appear in women of reproductive age, but it doesnt indicate pregnancy.

I've been diagnosed with a 4.5cm chocolate cyst and my doctor suggested laparoscopic surgery. Is this procedure safe and will it affect my chances of getting pregnant afterward? Also how long does recovery usually take after this type of surgery?
Laparoscopic surgery for a chocolate cyst is generally safe and can even improve fertility chances after surgery. While there are some risks associated with any surgery, the laparoscopic approach is minimally invasive, reducing the risk of complications. Recovery usually takes a week or two, with most activities resumed within that timeframe
