Could I Have HSV-2 Despite Negative Urine Test?
Here’s a draft for your query: In November, I experienced an episode of oral herpes. On December 4, I developed vaginal itching, a thick white discharge, and sores resembling vestibular papillomatosis. I consulted a doctor who diagnosed me with a yeast infection. After taking the prescribed treatment, my symptoms improved. However, I started experiencing vaginal burning and frequent urination. A urine test was conducted, but the results came back negative. I then consulted a gynecologist, who advised me to take a herpes test on December 28. The test results showed HSV IgG positive and IgM negative. Despite treatment, I still have sores that appear pearly, along with a burning sensation. Do I have HSV-2?

Answered on 31st Dec '24
Your positive IgG test for herpes, suggests an encounter with the virus in the past, often related to HSV-2, which can pathogenize genitals. The symptoms you’re dealing with, like sores and burning sensations, could come from this infection or some other illness. You should talk to a gynecologist, who may have custom suggestions and point you toward prodrug therapy. Readings and more examinations could offer a better view of your case.

I am 26 years female and I'm having prolactation for 1 year now, I'm not pregnant nor breastfeeding a child and I experience pain during sex
Female | 26
You might have hyperprolactinemia. What happens is this condition leads to the body producing too much of a hormone called prolactin, causing lactation and pain during sex. There are several possible causes, including some medicines you could be on; thyroid problems, or even a little tumor in your brain somewhere. I would advise that you see a doctor as soon as possible.

It's has been 20 days since my pilonidal sinus surgery and now my period have started,how do I maintain hygiene?
Female | 18
Ensure that you gently clean the surgery area with mild soap and water, carefully dry it, and avoid using any harsh chemicals. Additionally, loose cotton underwear, which does not trap moisture, can potentially prevent the infection. If you experience any unexpected discomfort, such as more pain redness, swelling, or discharge you should immediately consult a gynecologist to get proper advice.

Female | 19
Early pregnancy symptoms such as headaches, weakness, and tiredness may occur due to hormonal changes. However, these symptoms could also result from stress or lack of sleep. To determine if you are pregnant, take a home pregnancy test. Remember to rest, eat healthily, and stay hydrated. If symptoms persist, see a gynecologist for support and guidance.

I am a 40 year old woman who has strange smelling urine and is worried she may be pregnant, have an STD, UTI or other.
Female | 40
Strange-smelling urine can be caused by dehydration, consuming certain foods or drinks, and urinary tract infections (UTIs). If you are sexually active, it is also recommended to get regular screenings for STIs to prevent and detect infections early.

Did BHCG 35 days after intercourse and the result is 2. I have irregular menstrual cycle and never know when it will come. 25 days after last intercourse, I had 3-4 days light bleeding with brown discharge. Yesterday did Clearblue test (almost 2 months after sex), not first urine, and it came back negative. Is pregnancy definitely ruled out? I don't feel any symptoms except gingivitis.
Female | 28
A blood hCG test is a sensitive test that can detect pregnancy earlier than most urine pregnancy tests. A result of 2 mIU/mL is considered negative for pregnancy. Consult your doctor if you are still concerned.

Hello, I'm 29 years trying to conceive and currently on my first cycle of letrozol 5mg per day. I started taking it on day 3 -7 of my cycle.I'm told to have sex on day 12,14 and 16. My period usually 10-14 days long. I'm currently still on my menstrual cycle, how does this work? How am I to have sex on day 12?
Female | 29
Letrozole is a drug that can cause your body to ovulate. Therefore, it is going to be easier for you to become pregnant. It is common practice to start taking it on days 3-7 of your period. You may still have sex on the 12th day of your cycle even if your period is usually regular for a long time.

The day my period was due I did foreplay on that day, now my period is not coming after that.
Female | 18
Stress, alterations in routine, or hormonal imbalances can affect your cycle. At times, periods can be delayed for a few days. In the case of still not having a period for a week, then take a pregnancy test to make sure that it is not a pregnancy. However, the most important is to take care of yourself and be calm.

Having unprotected sex on 27 th January after 14 days of unprotected sex i got no period. Then taking the pregnancy kit test and found negative then 14 th February taking the norethindrone pill got period on 15 th February is there any chance of pregnancy?period flow is too heavy. Possibility of pregnancy after this.
Female | 19
The pregnancy test and menstruation after taking norethindrone indicate you're likely not pregnant. Heavy bleeding occurs frequently with this pill due to hormones. Though unlikely, pregnancy remains possible if periods persist irregularly. Monitor upcoming cycles closely, as flow intensity varies case-by-case following medication.

Female | 28
PCOS is a hormonal disorder in which ovaries produce excess androgens and that cause cyst formation. You didn't exactly mention the problem you are facing. But these common symptoms include irregular periods, weight gain, acne, and infertility. I suggest you consult a gynecologist who will perform a physical exam, recommend tests, and prescribe medication accordingly.

Gaining weight during periods
Female | 20
Your period brings a bit of weight gain. That's normal. You retain extra water. You feel bloated and heavier. Drink lots of water. Avoid salty foods. That helps reduce water retention. Do light exercises. Eat a balanced diet. These steps can manage the temporary weight gain.

Female | 23
Considering the prevailing symptoms you have, it is a good thing that you took pregnancy tests already. As a result of being negative, the probability of a pregnancy is low, but it does not mean that it can't happen. Your irregular menstrual periods, stressfulness, insomnia at night, and obesity, along with other symptoms can be due to hormonal imbalances, stress, or nutritional deficiencies. A visit to the gynecologist is a must. The gynecologist might suggest blood tests or other possible exams to identify the reason behind your missed periods and other symptoms.

Birth control pills prevent pregnancy. There exist different types. Having a doctor help you choose is smart. Take one pill daily for twenty-one days. Next, take a break for seven days. Following instructions carefully is crucial for effectiveness. Ask a gynecologist if you have queries or worries.

I recently turned 20 years old, since then I have had changes in my period. Like I have a heavier flow,more cramping .This morning I got my period I am having painful cramps,light headedness and even nausea. Is it normal and what can I do to ease the nausea and cramping
Female | 20
Experiencing difficult period symptoms are common as you get older. The flow becoming heavier and cramps worsening could indicate hormonal changes. Painful cramps, feeling lightheaded, and nausea often accompany periods too. Ginger tea or small, bland snacks may ease nausea. For cramps, try using a heating pad on your lower belly or taking ibuprofen. Stay hydrated and rest well. If symptoms persist or worsen severely, consult a gynecologist for advice.

I have my period 9 sept after that i take a pill on 18 sept than i get bleeding in 25 sept after that again 5 oct i get bleeding what its means???
Female | 27
This can be the result of the hormonal changes brought about by the pill. Bleeding between periods or after the pill has been taken can sometimes happen while your body is getting used to the new hormones. And, it is a common side effect. Nevertheless, if the bleeding is heavy or lasts for a long time, it is advisable to consult a gynecologist to ensure everything is alright.

Female | 27
Irregular periods happen sometimes. Stress can cause delays. New routines, like exercise changes or adjusting your diet, impact cycles too. Hormonal issues or medical conditions are other common reasons. If any other symptoms come up, like cramps or strange discharge, checking with a gynecologist is the best solution.
