Brief Answer:
Elective surgery is a must.
Detailed Answer:
Hello, Sir.
I can certainly understand your concern.
The pain in her case is directly related to the stone(s) in the gall bladder.
This might definitely need a surgery once the pain subsides.
Surgery can wait on an elective basis.
The lack of periods is due to PID.
Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.
