I'm really worried about this situation. I've been dealing with PCOD, and my weight keeps going upI'm currently 63 kg and I'm 5 feet tall. Could having a physical relationship actually help with this? And if so, should protection be used or is it okay to not use any? Also, in case we don't use protection, should I be taking birth control pills afterwards, or can I take them just to help regulate my menstrual cycle, even without having sex?

Physical relationship is not a direct cure for PCOD (Polycystic Ovary Disorder), but regular sexual activity can help regulate menstrual cycles and improve hormonal balance; however, it's crucial to practice safe sex using protection to prevent unintended pregnancy.
Regarding birth control pills, they can be prescribed to help regulate menstrual cycles, reduce androgen levels, and improve symptoms of PCOD, regardless of sexual activity; your partner's healthcare provider can guide her on the best course of treatment and recommend suitable birth control options.

View allI'm really worried and curious about something that happened recently. Is it possible to feel early pregnancy symptoms like stomach pain, nausea, and fatigue just two days after having intercourse? I know it's super early, but I've been feeling off and can't help but wonder if these could be signs of pregnancy. Can such symptoms show up that quickly, or am I just imagining things?

I have an 11.28 cm cyst in my right ovary and my doctor recommended laparoscopic surgery is it really safe or can it be treated with medicines instead
A large ovarian cyst like yours (11.28 cm) does increase the risk of complications like torsion or rupture, and surgery is often recommended for cysts of this size. Laparoscopic surgery, removing the cyst through small incisions, is generally considered safe and less invasive than an open procedure. While medication can sometimes shrink smaller cysts, it's less likely to be effective for very large ones.
