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?

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'm really worried because it feels like there's a water ball in my stomach. I don't know what the exact medical term is for it. Should I be seeing a gynecologist or a gastroenterologist to get this checked out?

The presence of a "water ball" in the stomach could refer to fluid accumulation, possibly indicating a cyst, ascites, or another condition. It's best to consult a **gastroenterologist** first, as they specialize in digestive system issues, including the stomach. If it's related to gynecological causes, the gastroenterologist may refer you to a gynecologist for further evaluation.

I've got a question about my PCOD situation. So, I went for a follicle study and on the 11th day, my right ovary size was 2719 and the endometrium thickness was 9. Then, ovulation happened on the 13th day but my endometrium thickness dropped to 5.3. My doctor mentioned that this is due to my PCOD and prescribed me an HCG 5000 injection twice along with some tablets and sachets. I'm just wondering, with my endometrium thickness being at 5.3, is there a chance I could conceive in this cycle? Any insights would be appreciated.

With the HCG injections and medications prescribed by your doctor, there is a possibility of conceiving in this cycle despite the endometrium thickness of 5.3mm. The medications and injections are aimed at supporting the ovulation and improving the chances of successful implantation. It is important to continue following your doctor's instructions and guidance for the best possible outcome.
