View allMy aunty has been diagnosed with adenomyosis and an umbilical hernia. Can you check her report and advise if she needs surgery or if injections and tablets would be enough to help her condition?
It's impossible to give a definitive answer about whether your aunt needs surgery without reviewing her specific medical reports and having a consultation with a doctor. However, I can provide general information about adenomyosis and umbilical hernias, which may help her understand the decision-making process.

I'm 8 weeks pregnant and got some test results, but I'm not sure what they mean. It says I have a few ringworm of P. falciparum, and the Widal test shows some positive results. Does this mean I have a lot of malaria or any thyroid issues? Can these be treated so they don't harm me or my baby? Also, I often notice a cream discharge, but it usually doesn't have a smell. Could this be related? I would really appreciate your advice.

I'm really worried about this situation. I've been dealing with PCOD, and my weight keeps going upI'm currently 63 kg and I'm 5 feet tall. Could having a physical relationship actually help with this? And if so, should protection be used or is it okay to not use any? Also, in case we don't use protection, should I be taking birth control pills afterwards, or can I take them just to help regulate my menstrual cycle, even without having sex?
Physical relationship is not a direct cure for PCOD (Polycystic Ovary Disorder), but regular sexual activity can help regulate menstrual cycles and improve hormonal balance; however, it's crucial to practice safe sex using protection to prevent unintended pregnancy. Regarding birth control pills, they can be prescribed to help regulate menstrual cycles, reduce androgen levels, and improve symptoms of PCOD, regardless of sexual activity; your partner's healthcare provider can guide her on the best course of treatment and recommend suitable birth control options.
