I'm really worried about my girlfriend. On Monday, I fingered her and since then she had continuous pain which lasted until Friday. Now, it seems to have lessened to just once a day. When I was fingering her, it felt like I was hitting something. Can you help diagnose what's going on and suggest any treatment options? Also, if there's a way to contact you, can you let me know?

Overcoming Gynecomastia Without Surgery
Possible Non-Surgical Treatments
- Hormonal treatments: Medications like tamoxifen or raloxifene can help balance hormone levels and reduce breast tissue.
- Selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs): These medications can help reduce estrogen's effects on breast tissue.
- Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT): If low testosterone levels are contributing to gynecomastia, TRT may help.
- Lifestyle changes: Maintaining a healthy weight, exercising regularly, and avoiding certain substances (e.g., steroids, marijuana) can help reduce breast tissue.
Cost of Non-Surgical Treatments
- Hormonal treatments: $50-$200 per month, depending on the medication and dosage.
- SERMs: $30-$100 per month, depending on the medication and dosage.
- TRT: $50-$200 per month, depending on the treatment plan and medication.
- Lifestyle changes: No direct cost, but may require investments in gym memberships, healthy food, or fitness classes.
Surgical Treatment Costs (for comparison)
- Male breast reduction surgery: $3,000-$6,000 or more, depending on the surgeon, location, and procedure complexity.

Does this mean I'm not pregnant? Is it normal to bleed before finishing the Susten tablets since they're progesterone? Im unsure if I should continue taking the last two days' worth of tablets.

I'm having a bit of a concern during sex with my husband. At the start of intercourse, I'm experiencing some biting or stinging sensation near the entrance of my vagina. I've had sex multiple times before and never had this issue. Also, I've noticed a thick white discharge coming from my vagina, not watery at all. After having sex, I noticed a bit of hard blood, like the kind I usually see during my periods. I'm just wondering why this suddenly started happening. Could it be a sign of something?
The sudden onset of vaginal biting or stinging sensations during sex, accompanied by abnormal white discharge and post-coital spotting, may indicate an underlying condition such as vaginal dryness, yeast infection, bacterial vaginosis, or a possible allergic reaction; it's essential to consult a gynecologist for a thorough examination

I've been able to insert two fingers into my vagina and I'm wondering if that means my hymen might be broken. Is it true that if the hymen breaks, there should be noticeable bleeding?
Its possible to insert two fingers into the vagina without the hymen breaking, as the hymen can stretch or be flexible. The breaking of the hymen doesnt always result in bleeding, as it can vary from person to person. Some may experience minimal bleeding, while others might not have any at all.
