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 found a moderate well-defined echo-free cyst in my right adnexa measuring 54mm x 36.8mm and the right ovary isn't visible because of it. There's no septa, calcification, or solid parts right now. Should I be worried about this? Do I need surgery or can it be managed with medicine?

A simple adnexal cyst without solid parts or septation is usually benign. Observation and follow-up scans are preferred unless symptoms worsen.

I'm five months pregnant and my recent ultrasound, the TIFFA scan, showed that my baby's kidneys are swelling. I'm really worried. Is this a major problem? Are there things I can do to help reduce the swelling before the next scan?

The swelling in your baby's kidneys, detected during the TIFFA scan at 5 months, may indicate a condition like hydronephrosis or pyelectasis, which can be caused by a urinary tract obstruction or infection; while it's a concern, many cases resolve on their own, and with proper monitoring and care, the prognosis is often good; to reduce swelling and ensure the best possible outcome, follow your doctor's recommendations, attend all scheduled prenatal appointments, and maintain a healthy lifestyle, including staying hydrated, eating a balanced diet, and managing stress.
