From the way you tell it, it appears that the annoyance you have been experiencing is due to a fungal infection which can cause symptoms like itching, irritation, and abnormal discharge. The antibiotics can be both good and bad, as the natural flora and the vaginal flora may be destroyed but on the other hand, they can lead to residual yeast growth. Consider the use of antifungal drugs, and probiotics, and maintaining good hygiene to treat it. So, trying to avoid self-diagnosis and treatment, I suggest you take a visit to a gynecologist to fix a problem and tailor your treatment.

Hello, I'm 18 years old.I lost sensation in my clitoris.I noticed that the skin of the labia majora has become very thin. My libido is very low for 3 years.I am still a virgin because of this. I had blood tests and ultrasound, the test results are normal. Could it be vaginal atrophy? What kind of tests should I do?

Mam I took emergency contraceptive pill and i got more than 7 days periods it's 10 th day of my period and I have heavy flow I'm scared pls help me

I recommend that you have an appointment with a gynecologist today. The prolonged periods can become a side effect of emergency contraceptive pills, however, you should exclude any underlying medical conditions.

I am 28 years old female and a yellowish thick discharge from my vagina and smells like sour milk, no pain or irritation and it been 4 days now. No medication i have taken yet

Female | 28

It can be a sign of a vaginal infection, could be bacterial vaginosis or a yeast infection. It occurs due to an imbalance of bacteria or yeast in the vagina, and can cause discomfort, itching, or burning in some cases. I recommend you to get an accurate diagnosis and treatment. Your doctor may give medications like antibiotics or antifungal medication, depending on the cause of the discharge.
