I'm wondering if it's safe to try clitoral stimulation to reach orgasm about a week after having the D&C procedure. I'm planning on avoiding any penetration, but I'm still a bit unsure. Can you advise?

It's generally safe to engage in clitoral stimulation a week after a D&C procedure, as long as there are no signs of infection or complications. However, it's important to listen to your body and avoid any activities that cause discomfort. If you have any concerns or experience pain, its best to consult your doctor.

My wife gave birth to our baby boy nearly two months ago, and just recently, I've noticed she's had a couple of nosebleeds and her right eye looks red. Could this be something serious? Should she see a gynecologist, or is it better to consult an ENT or an eye doctor? Also, is it okay for her to continue breastfeeding? I'm really looking forward to some guidance here.
