What's the safe window for having unprotected sex to avoid pregnancy? Is there a way I can have sex without a condom and my wife wont get pregnant?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The concept of a "safe period" refers to the time in a woman's menstrual cycle when she is least likely to conceive. However, it is important to note that this method is not highly reliable, as ovulation can vary. For more effective pregnancy prevention, it's advisable to use contraception, such as condoms or other birth control methods, to reduce the risk of pregnancy.

View allI'm 8 days late for my period, which is unusual since they're usually regular. I took a home pregnancy test and it came back negative, but I'm experiencing leg pain and there's a white milky discharge. Can you help me understand what's going on with my body?
Its possible that stress, hormonal changes, or other factors like infection could be affecting your cycle, even with a negative pregnancy test. The leg pain and milky discharge might also indicate something like an early hormonal imbalance or a vaginal infection. Its best to follow up with your doctor for a more thorough evaluation if your period doesn't start soon.

I'm 25 and just found out I have a dermoid cyst near my right ovary it's 10x7x9 cm. My doctor recommended laparoscopic surgery, but I'm wondering if there are other options since I also have PCOD. What else can be done about this?
For your 10x7x9 cm dermoid cyst near your right ovary, while laparoscopic surgery is the most common approach, other options exist, especially considering your PCOD diagnosis. Watchful waiting with regular follow-up scans, hormonal contraceptives to reduce cyst formation, or surgical removal of the cyst alone (cystectomy) without removing the ovary (oophorectomy) are possibilities. Your doctor can help determine the best course of action based on your specific circumstances and preferences
