You are consuming Dolutegravir, Lamivudine, and Tenofovir, note that these HIV drugs might have an interaction with Implanon to contemplate. This conflict is likely to affect the efficiency of both the HIV drug and the implant. One should tell the doctors to find a safe and useful option of contraceptives you prefer.

You feel worried about having HIV even with a negative test. Our bodies sometimes show symptoms like HIV without actually having it.

My mother is blood cancer patient and now she has excess cough with mucus from 2 months . Some doctor said it’s a side effect of chemo medicines of vincristine injection
Female | Manju gupta
After chemotherapy, a cough that is accompanied by mucus may appear because our immune system is weakened, or it may be due to the damage of the respiratory system from treatments similar to vincristine. Make sure she stays well hydrated, and make her drink a lot of fluids. Also, a humidifier might be a good idea for relief. I suggest you talk with her oncologist and get it clear from him about these transitions and perhaps the altering of the therapeutic plan.

I am 20F. Since May, I started a new job in May (retail part time as a student). I've been having nosebleeds since then. During summer it was worse when i was working many many hrs, where it happened alongside dizziness and headaches. Its recently happening again on and off since May- sometimes due to stress and dehydration , dust, allergies and the flu (dont know exact cause). It always come from one nostril.
Female | 20
Nosebleeds happen, especially with stress, lack of fluids, or breathing in dust and allergens. One nostril bleeding is usually no biggie. Try drinking more water, avoiding dusty spaces, and using a humidifier. But if it won't quit, best to have a doctor check it.

My patlet -154000 MPV -14.2 Is it ok
Male | 39
A platelet count below 150,000 is considered low. Platelets help the blood clot properly. Low levels can cause bruising easily, bleeding, or tiny red spots called petechiae. An MPV of 14.2 is slightly below normal too. This could happen due to infections, medications, or medical issues. It's crucial to talk to your doctor about these results. They'll check further and recommend the right treatment.

What is aids Can you explain how hiv falls in anyone
Male | 20
AIDS stands for Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome. It's a severe condition that is unable to be healed, which is caused by a virus called HIV. HIV, which is the root of AIDS, weakens the human immune system. It is for this reason that the body can not ward off infections. Among the many symptoms of AIDS, the main ones include rapid weight loss, frequent fevers, and extreme tiredness. The most preferable treatment option is to explain HIV through the use of protection drugs during intimacy and not to use needles. Early screening and taking the required medications could help manage the virus.

Stem cell transplant for sickling
Female | 13
When red blood cells change shape and get stuck in the body, sickling occurs, which causes pain and infections. It is due to an error in your genetic makeup that you were born with. By providing new cells that create healthy blood, a stem cell transplant may correct this. Eventually, such a therapy could lower the frequency of sickling and improve overall well-being.
