I'm really worried because my wife has been diagnosed with fibroadenoma in her right breast, and it's positioned just above her ovary. Our doctor thinks surgery is the best option, but I'm not entirely sure and feel like I need a second opinion on whether this is necessary. What do you think? Could there be any other treatment options we should consider?

I'm thinking about having a second child and really hope for a baby boy to complete our family. My first child is a lovely 3.5-year-old girl. Is there any advice or methods to help conceive a boy?

While it's not possible to guarantee the gender of your baby naturally, some methods like timing intercourse around ovulation or choosing specific positions may slightly influence the odds. However, it's important to remember that the most accurate way to select a baby's gender is through medical procedures like IVF with genetic testing, though these come with ethical and legal considerations.
