A member asked:

I have a lump in my side of veginal . seen a doctor and i am on medication since 2weeks the size of it decreased.is it time to surgically remove it?

See your doctor: You should have a followup appointment with the dr who prescribed the medicine. It's good that it's smaller, and will likely go away with the medicine. Keep your followup appointment and ask your doctor.
