Does posterior placenta mean boy?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
No, the position of placenta doesn't determine gender of a baby.

Correlation Between Placental Position and Baby's Gender:
- There is no scientifically proven correlation between having a posterior placenta and the baby's gender being male.
- The baby's gender is determined by chromosomes at conception.
-
Placental Position:
- Placental location (anterior, posterior, fundal, etc.) varies naturally among pregnancies.
- It is influenced by factors related to implantation and uterine anatomy.
-
Ultrasound and Gender Prediction:
- Ultrasound can identify placental position but cannot predict gender based on it.
Recommendation:
- If you have concerns about your pregnancy or placental position, consult your healthcare provider for personalized information and reassurance.

My mom has been bleeding non-stop for the past 8 days and the doctor prescribed Ovral L and methergin. Her sonography report says she has an anteverted bulky uterus measuring 12.48.36.1cm with 14.7mm endometrial thickness. There's also a 4.03.7cm intramural hypoechoic lesion and multiple small follicles in both ovaries. Is surgery the only option or can this be managed with medication?
Endometrial biopsy required. After that treatment can be decided.

I had an ultrasound yesterday that showed a right ovarian mass measuring 43.5x20.7mm with two hemorrhagic cysts (15.0x12.0mm and 9.2x8.9mm) and no dominant follicle. The left ovary is normal. I'm really worried do I need surgery to remove the cysts or can they be treated with medication?
It's understandable to be worried about the findings from your ultrasound. Hemorrhagic ovarian cysts are usually benign, but some may need treatment, including surgery. The size and any associated symptoms will help determine the best course of action.
