So I've got a bit of a sensitive question. My friend just got married and she's kinda embarrassed but having some trouble staying wet during intercourse. She starts out fine for the first 10 minutes or so, but then it just seems to stop. Is this a cause for concern or is there something she can do to help with it?

I'm noticing some brown discharge before my period and my period itself only lasts for a day, with more brown discharge after. I'm married, but haven't been able to have a baby yet. Should I be concerned about these symptoms, and could they be affecting my chances of conceiving?

it might be due to less hemoglobin, eat good amount of fruits like apple

I'm still a virgin and I'm really curious about what to expect the first time I have intercourse. Does it hurt a lot and is bleeding normal? If it does bleed, how long should I expect that to last? Also, I've noticed I can insert a finger into my vaginadoes that mean I don't have a hymen anymore? I'd love some clarity on all this.

First-time intercourse can be painful and may cause bleeding due to hymenal tearing, but this varies from person to person; bleeding, if it occurs, usually lasts a few hours to a few days; being able to insert a single finger into the vagina doesn't necessarily mean you don't have a hymen, as hymens come in different shapes and sizes, and some may be more elastic or flexible.

Can sperm survive in menstrual blood?

Women are not able to conceive whilst on their period, but sperm survives within the female reproductive system for up to five days. This means that a tiny fraction of women do have a small chance of becoming pregnant during their period.
