I've been dealing with PCOD and haven't had my period for three months. Now I've got my period, but it's really heavy and I'm experiencing a lot of stomach pain. I'm stuck at home due to the lockdown and can't see a doctor for the next couple of days. Do you think this is normal, and is there anything I can do to manage the pain or bleeding until I can get to a doctor? I'm really worried.

I've been diagnosed with an endometriotic cyst that's over 3 cm, and I've been on Ovral L for a few months. Now, the cyst's size has decreased to 2.5 x 1.5 cm. My doctor is suggesting I should consider early marriage and pregnancy. Is that really the only option I have? If I delay this, could I face infertility issues down the road, or are there any other complications I should be aware of?
