It's been 3 months since my ruptured ectopic pregnancy laparotomy surgery on the right tube. Everything seems healed now, and my periods are regular. I have two concerns first, there's still slight swelling and numbness on the right side of my pelvic area, but no pain. Is this normal as part of the healing process, and will it go away over time? Second, I want to start more intense abdominal and body exercises for fat loss since I've been doing basic ones. Is it safe to increase the intensity now?

My mother has been dealing with recurring bleeding for the past 5 years, and it keeps happening every year. Each time, medications like Pause MF or Sevista stop the bleeding, but now the doctor prescribed Pause MF and Deviry 10mg. The doctor is suggesting open surgery to remove her uterus instead of laparoscopy. I've attached the reports what would you recommend in this situation? Is open surgery the only option or could laparoscopy still be considered?

It's understandable to be concerned about your mother's recurring bleeding and the potential for surgery. While an open hysterectomy (removing the uterus) is a definitive solution, laparoscopy (a minimally invasive procedure) should also be considered. If the underlying cause of the bleeding is not completely resolved, open surgery might be necessary, but it's crucial to explore other options first, especially if your mother isn't yet ready for menopause.
