I'm a little concerned because my c-section scar has a noticeable odor and they used glue to seal it. Is this something normal, or should I be thinking about a trip to the ER?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A mild odor and redness after a C-section are common, but a strong, foul smell or increased redness, swelling, and discharge may indicate infection; the glue used to close the incision is usually a normal part of the healing process; however, if you experience any of the following, seek immediate medical attention: increased pain, fever over 100.4F, or pus-like discharge.

I've been struggling with PCOS and hydrosalpinx in my left fallopian tube my doctor says it needs to be removed. There's also a cyst on my right ovary, and they'll check if my right tube is blocked too before possibly removing it and suggesting IVF. But I'm not sure if surgery is the right step since IVF isn't guaranteed. What should I do?
