Usually after intercourse since my second trimester- now in my third- I will have lower abdominal pain. It will be somewhat crippling but go away within a few minutes. Today, however, we were unable to penetrate. There was a very distinctly sharp pain as though there were some sort of barrier. My partner said he noticed it too. It can only be described as feeling as though I were a virgin again, like something had to be broken through. It was quite strange and painful. Anyone? & sorry for the tmi.

How long does it take to be a nurse in the obgyn where they deliver babies? I know it takes 4 years to be an RN but in total how long will it take to be that?

I had a baby four months ago and ever since then i have been so moody. I take the depo shot and i have to go see my gyno today. i like the shot but a side effect is moodiness. can i counter act that with an inti depressant or move on to a new Birth control?

Is there any way that by examining a girl’s vagina, a gynecologist the can grossly tell when was the last time that girl had sex? And how long back can the gynecologist go?

i mean do they need to take out your uterus
or can they just remove the fibroids or tumor so you can have a baby
have any of you had uterine fibroids (badly) and had a baby?

I am thinking about taking birth control but i dont know what or which one to take. I am looking to take it to treat menstrual cramps and heavy flow. I want to use a safe and effective one.

I may be pregnant, but we’re not sure yet. I took 3 tests 3 days ago, and all three came back positive, but then I had some spotting/period and took another test last night and it came back negative. I have 2 more tests to take, but I’ve been spotting/having my period for two days now. Is it possible to still be pregnant?

I am experiencing horrible throbbing menstrual cramps and pamprin isn’t working anymore at all. I’ve tried ibuprofen, midol, extra strength and 12 hour formulas – but nothing helps anymore. Weird thing is, any other time of the month I never take these pain relievers, but its like my body has built up a tolerance to them. What else can I do to relieve the pain?

I have a very low sex drive and I always have even before we had our baby. My husband always teases that it is a miracle he is here because I am never in the mood. Even when we have for play I am still never in the mood. It is starting to affect our relationship. My husband is sleeping on the couch and told me today that he feels his role is only to pay the bills and that we are great room mates. I need some help and I don’t know what to do or who to ask for help.

My Girlfriend has just been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, how will this affect her for the rest of her life? Does it decrease her life expectancy? Is there anything that I could do to help her deal with the symptoms?

Today I was diagnosed with three uterine fibroids (3 cm each) and a small ovarian cyst. I don’t want to get surgery as it could be dangerous for other organs. Are there any natural ways of shrinking them?

Thank you.

I have recently moved to a new city, and haven’t set things up with a new doctor yet. I’m wondering how many appointments I need to make right away. My birth control prescription is about to run out – do I need to make an appointment with a gynecologist to get this renewed, or can I ask my regular doctor when I go in for a physical?
