I used a Clearblue Easy fertility tester and it showed a positive result with a smiley face. I had sex on the 26th. What are the chances of becoming pregnant, and is it more likely to be a girl? How long after the LH surge does the egg release, and how long until conception and implantation? I'm also experiencing pain on my right side and have been taking Percocet, medical marijuana, and Klonopin. How might these medications affect a potential pregnancy, and what should I do about my medication regimen?

I am a 30-year-old woman diagnosed with PCOS and have two ovarian cysts. I am seeking pregnancy but am currently on birth control pills (Diane 35) to treat the cysts. My husband has zero sperm motility. What are the alternatives to birth control pills for treating my cysts, and what treatments are available for my husband's condition? Should we consider IVF, and if so, should we wait for my husband's treatment to work or proceed directly to IVF?

I had a full hysterectomy 10 years ago, including the removal of the cervix. For the last four years, sex has been painful, feeling like a knife hitting something inside me. My primary doctor believes it's scar tissue where the cervix was. Can scar tissue be relaxed or helped, and is there any treatment such as laser or surgery to address this issue?
