I'm really worried because I've been having a lot of pain on the left side of my stomach and irregular periods for about a year now. I recently had an ovary scan and they found follicles. It's been really tough dealing with this pain and I'm not sure what to do. Is there any way to decrease the pain and the number of follicles? I'm looking for a more permanent solution, if possible.

What age does a woman stop being fertile?

A woman's peak reproductive years are between the late teens and late 20s. By age 30, fertility (the ability to get pregnant) starts to decline. This decline becomes more rapid once you reach your mid-30s. By 45, fertility has declined so much that getting pregnant naturally is unlikely for most women.

I'm a bit worried because it's been about 20 days since my C-section, and now I'm noticing some puss coming out from the incision. There's a sort of pimple or bubble that's formed along the incision line. Is this something I should be concerned about? What could be causing it, and should I see someone about it?

It sounds like there might be an infection at the incision site, which can happen after surgery. I recommend seeing your doctor as soon as possible to have the area examined, and they may suggest draining the pus and possibly prescribing antibiotics to help with the infection. Take care of the wound by keeping it clean and avoiding any irritation.
