View allI'm not married and have a fibroid measuring 28mm to 38mm. I was told it can't be cured without surgery but the gynecologist I visited didn't prescribe any medication. What should I do about this situation?
It's understandable to be concerned about fibroids, especially if you're experiencing symptoms or have been told they can't be cured without surgery. While a 28mm to 38mm fibroid is a significant size, it doesn't necessarily mean surgery is the only option. You should seek a second opinion from another gynecologist to explore different treatment approaches, including medication and potentially less invasive surgical options

I had unprotected sex on the 15th of May, the day after my period ended. I took an Unwanted 72 pill afterward, but then my period returned on the 19th of May and hasn't stopped since. I'm 19 years old and really worried about this. What should I do?
It seems like the unwanted 72 pill may have caused a hormonal imbalance leading to prolonged bleeding. I recommend you to take Tranexamic acid 500mg thrice a day for 3-5 days to help stop the excessive bleeding. If the bleeding persists or becomes heavy, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

My wife is struggling with vaginal dryness, and it's becoming a bit of an issue for us when it comes to our intimacy. Could you recommend a good vaginal lubricant that we can pick up at the local pharmacy?
This is often the result of not enough foreplay. Insufficient lubrication is also commonly caused by a drop in estrogen levels after menopause, after childbirth or during breast-feeding. Certain medications are known to inhibit desire or arousal, which can decrease lubrication and make sex painful. These include antidepressants, high blood pressure medications, sedatives, antihistamines and certain birth control pills. This includes injury or irritation from an accident, pelvic surgery, female circumcision or a cut made during childbirth to enlarge the birth canal (episiotomy). An infection in your genital area or urinary tract can cause painful intercourse. Eczema or other skin problems in your genital area also can be the problem...Involuntary spasms of the muscles of the vaginal wall (vaginismus) can make attempts at penetration...consult gynecologist they will help you further
