View allI'm having trouble with getting wet during intimacy. Even when I'm in the mood, I just don't seem to produce natural lubricant. What can I do to help my body produce it naturally? I love being with my partner, so it's really frustrating. Also, I've noticed some wart-like things around my vaginal area. Any advice on how to treat these?
It sounds like you're experiencing dryness, which can happen for various reasons, including hormonal changes or stress. You might benefit from using a water-based lubricant to enhance comfort. For the warts, it's important to get them checked by a healthcare provider, as they may be caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), and treatment options are available. Please consult with a gynecologist for a proper evaluation and personalized advice.

My mother is 45 and has been dealing with gynecological issues for the past three years. She had uterus surgery back in 2015 and has been consulting Dr. Shipra Rani and Dr. Hemlata, who are known as the best gynecologists in Singrauli, Madhya Pradesh. But now they're saying she needs to see a higher specialist outside our area. I'm really worried what could be the issue that they haven't been able to diagnose? Where should we go for better help, and are there any precautions we should take in the meantime?
Patient is advised for surgeon opinion for further management.

I'm really confused right now. My period is two weeks late, but every pregnancy test I've taken says I'm not pregnant. I don't even have any usual pregnancy symptoms, just a missed period. What could be going on here? Should I be worried, and what should I do next?
If your period is 14 days late and pregnancy tests are negative, consider waiting a few more days and retaking the test, then if still negative, consult a gynecologist to rule out other causes of missed periods
