I'm experiencing some issues with lubrication during sex, and it's started just in the last 15 days. My partner and I got married 6 months ago, and everything was fine until recently. It's a bit worrying, and I'm not sure what might be causing it or how to fix it. Could there be any specific reasons for this change, or should we try something specific to help?

It's common to experience lubrication issues due to stress, hormonal changes, or other factors. I recommend trying water-based lubricants for comfort and discussing this with your doctor to rule out any underlying causes, like hormonal imbalances or dryness. Open communication with your partner can also help reduce stress during intimacy.

I'm feeling a bit worried about this. Is it okay to take medicine for a fever while I'm on my period? Could it mess with my cycle at all?

I've been dealing with a bartholin cyst that's gotten way bigger in the last 3 days and it's making sitting and moving really uncomfortable. This is the third time in 2 years but it usually goes away on its own this time it's much worse. I read about surgical draining but want to avoid that if possible. What can I do to ease this and why do these keep happening?

surgery opinion is advised to the patient.
