I'm really worried about something that happened with my friend. Her boyfriend fingered her, and she's freaking out about the possibility of pregnancy. They aren't sure if there might have been anything on his fingers. Can you explain if pregnancy is possible from fingering in this situation?

It is highly unlikely that pregnancy would occur from fingering, as sperm would need to be directly introduced into the vagina for fertilization to happen. However, if there is a possibility that semen was on the fingers and they were introduced into the vagina, it's still a very low risk, but I would recommend speaking to a healthcare provider for further reassurance and guidance.

My mom's uterus report says it's bulky and anteverted with heterogeneous myometrial echogenicity. Is it safe to delay surgery for a month or should we act sooner? What could this mean for her health?

If she has symptoms like pain or excess bleeding, she will definitely need treatment. There are couple of non surgical treatments as well. If you have been advised surgery, you can do it as soon as possible. 1 month wait is okay
