I'm a bit worried and need some advice. If I perform oral sex on a guy and there's precum involved, and then we kiss, followed by him performing oral sex on me, can the precum transfer during the kiss and potentially lead to pregnancy?

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.

I've been experiencing a lot of pain during sex because there's not enough lubrication, and it makes me really anxious. I'm wondering if using Lox 2 jelly might help. Is it safe, and could it ease the pain I'm feeling? I'm really looking for some guidance on this.

understand your concern about the high total blood protein level (8.6) and the potential hyperparathyroidism diagnosis. _Hyperparathyroidism and High Calcium_ 1. Elevated calcium levels can be a sign of hyperparathyroidism, which your doctor suspects. 2. High calcium levels can also contribute to kidney stone formation, osteoporosis, and other complications. _High Total Blood Protein_ 1. Total protein levels above 8.5 gdL can indicate an underlying condition, such as: - Dehydration - Liver or kidney disease - Inflammatory conditions (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis) - Plasma cell dyscrasias (e.g., multiple myeloma) 2. Your doctor's lack of concern might be due to the mild elevation in protein levels or the presence of other symptoms that point more strongly towards hyperparathyroidism. _Next Steps_ 1. _Follow up with the specialist_: Discuss your high calcium levels and potential hyperparathyroidism diagnosis. 2. _Request a protein electrophoresis test_: This test can help identify the type of protein elevation and its underlying cause. 3. _Monitor your protein levels_: Schedule follow-up appointments to track your protein levels and adjust your treatment plan as needed.
