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've been using Primolut N to push back my period a bit, but I'm having this light blood-like discharge. My periods aren't normal right now. Should I keep taking it? My doc told me to take two pills a day but seemed unsure since I started them a bit late. Can anyone give me a clear idea of what I should do next, maybe with a solution?

I've been having irregular periods every month, and they never seem to come on the same date. Sometimes they're 5 days late, other times 9 days late. It's becoming a regular thing, and I'm starting to worry. Do you have any advice or suggestions on what might be causing this?

I've been having really heavy periods that last 10 to 18 days with clots and bad cramps. My ultrasound showed a bulky uterus measuring 73x47x55 mm with a 12-13 mm endometrial echo. There's also a simple cyst on my right ovary around 30x14 mm. Should I consider surgery for this or are there other options?

You need hysteroscopy and D&C. If you completed your family then you can go for mirena insertion.
