I'm kind of curious about something. I've been married for a couple of years, and my husband is really into sucking my nipples for a long time, like almost every day. I do enjoy it, but sometimes it's for like an hour on each breast, and he also pinches one nipple while sucking the other. It's fun, honestly. But here's the thing: I'm wondering if there's a chance I could start producing milk even though I don't have kids yet. Does this kind of stimulation make that possible?

While nipple stimulation can trigger the release of the hormone prolactin, which plays a role in milk production, it typically requires pregnancy or recent childbirth to induce lactation. Without a pregnancy, prolonged nipple stimulation alone may not result in milk production, though it can have temporary effects like increased sensitivity or small amounts of fluid secretion. It's important to consult with a healthcare provider for more personalized advice.

I'm taking Cyclenorm E and P for three days, with six tablets each. Do you know how long it usually takes for my period to start after this? I'm a bit anxious and curious about the timeline.

Taking Cyclenorm E and P for 3 days (6 tablets each) can help regulate your menstrual cycle. Your periods are likely to start within 1-2 days after finishing the course of medication. Make sure to follow the prescribed dosage as directed by your healthcare provider.

I'm wondering about the possibility of having twins after two eggs were ruptured with an HCG injection. If both eggs get fertilized, are twins likely? And in a case where only one egg fertilizes, what happens to the other egg that was ruptured?

I was recently diagnosed with endometriosis and have cysts in both ovaries two on the left (2cm and 3cm) and one on the right (2cm). My gynecologist is recommending laparoscopy, but I'm wondering if there are any medications or injections that could treat the endometriosis and help me conceive instead of surgery

While medications and injections can help manage endometriosis and its symptoms, they often don't resolve the underlying condition. Laparoscopy may be recommended for endometriomas (cysts) that are painful, growing, or larger than 4cm, or when fertility is a goal. Medications like birth control pills, progestins, and GnRH agonists can help suppress the growth of endometriosis tissue and relieve pain, but they don't eliminate the cyst
