Is Ovarian Cancer painful?

The symptoms of ovarian cancer will vary depending on the stage of the cancer. Many women with early stage ovarian cancer may not have any symptoms. If they do, it may be some pain in the lower abdomen or side and a bloated or full feeling in the abdomen.

I've been taking Susten 400 twice a day since my IUI on July 5th, as my doctor suggested doing it for 15 days. But now it's day 11, and I'm having all these period symptoms. Do you think I should stop taking Susten, or is this normal? I'm just a bit worried and unsure about what to do next.

It is important to continue using Susten as prescribed by your doctor to support the early stages of pregnancy. It is recommended to complete the full course of medication unless otherwise advised by your doctor.

Can medicine help clear a tubal blockage or is surgery like laparoscopy the only option? I'm really worried and would appreciate some advice on what might work best for my situation

There are no specific medications to treat fallopian tube blockages directly. However, if the blockage is caused by an infection, antibiotics or other treatments may be prescribed to address the underlying cause. Medication may also be used alongside surgical or assisted reproductive treatments.
