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?

I'm on my 14th day after IUI and I've been taking progesterone tablets. I've noticed some white discharge. Could this be a sign of my period or maybe pregnancy? I'm wondering when I should take a pregnancy test.

The white discharge you are experiencing could be a symptom of early pregnancy. It is common to have an increase in vaginal discharge during pregnancy. To confirm whether you are pregnant or not, you can take a pregnancy test. It is recommended to wait at least 14 days after the IUI procedure before taking a pregnancy test for accurate results.
