Juice extracted from lemon contains citric acid, which is a great anti-oxidant and helps in reducing the symptoms of fibroids.

  1. Lime Water and Fibroids:

    • Lime water is hydrating and contains vitamin C, but it does not reduce fibroids.
  2. Fibroid Management:

    • Consult a gynecologist for evaluation and treatment options like medication or surgery.
  3. Lifestyle Considerations:

    • Maintain a healthy diet and exercise for overall well-being, though these won't shrink fibroids.
  4. Recommendation:

    • Seek professional medical advice for fibroid concerns rather than relying on home remedies.

I'm really curious and a bit nervous about having sex for the first time. What should both my partner and I know or do to make sure it's a good and safe experience for us both since it's our first time?

To have a good first-time sexual experience, it's important to communicate openly with your partner, take things slow, and prioritize each other's comfort and consent. Make sure to use protection to prevent sexually transmitted infections and unwanted pregnancies. It's also important to be aware of each other's boundaries and to stop if either partner feels uncomfortable. As for contraception, you can consider using condoms to prevent STIs and also consider using emergency contraceptive pills if needed.
