Why is my left ovary causing pain?
It's actually quite common to have a dominant follicle during your menstrual cycle. This follicle is basically a fluid-filled sac that contains an egg, and it's necessary for ovulation to occur. Sometimes, a dominant follicle can cause discomfort or pain due to its size or the pressure it puts on surrounding tissues. In most cases, this pain is temporary and should resolve on its own as the follicle either releases the egg or shrinks in size. To help manage the pain, you can try using a heating pad, taking over-the-counter pain medication, and getting plenty of rest. However, if the pain persists or becomes severe, it's important to follow up with your gynecologist for further evaluation and management.

Why is my lower abdomen pain spreading to stomach?
When pain starts in one area and then spreads, we need to consider a few things. One possibility could be a muscle strain that initially started in your lower back and has now affected your whole stomach area due to muscle tension. Another thing to think about is potential issues with your digestive system, like gastritis or even a kidney problem. It's good that you tried over-the-counter meds, but if they're not helping, it might be time to see a gastroenterologist. In the meantime, try using a heating pad for some relief and make sure to stay hydrated.

Is my labia shape normal post-sex injury?
It's actually quite common for the shape to appear different during the healing process. Your body is working to repair itself, so a temporary change in shape is normal. As for concerns about complications during sex after marriage, it's important to allow enough time for complete healing before engaging in any sexual activity. I recommend keeping the area clean and dry, wearing loose clothing, and avoiding any harsh soaps or products that could irritate the area. If you notice any signs of infection, such as increased pain, redness, or discharge, it's best to see a gynecologist for further evaluation.

Is it safe to take Ritalin for memory issues?
Short-term memory problems happen because of stress, chronic sleep deprivation, or low concentration. Instead of taking medication like Ritalin or Addwize, it's better to focus on healthy habits like getting enough sleep, eating well, and practicing relaxation techniques. Besides that, you can try memory techniques such as list-making or flashcards to remember information effectively.

Why do I have excessive watery discharge during intercourse?
Vaginal discharge during sex is a common concern and sometimes it is due to changes in hormone levels, which are part of the body's natural processes. A lack of vaginal protection means discharges can also result in fertility concerns. If you still want solutions, closely monitor your cycle and confer any symptoms with your gynecologist. They may need to check out you through a series of evaluations and prescribe the right course of action after the diagnosis of the cause of the issue.

It is common for babies to cry, but if your 6-month-old is crying constantly, it could be due to colic, hunger, or discomfort. I suggest visiting a pediatrician to get a proper check-up and understand the exact reason.
