Why is my vaginal discharge white and itchy?

Hello, I am a 26 year old female. Last month, I noticed a strange vaginal discharge. It was not slimy and transparent as it usually is but it was like a white thick ball that breaks when I try to grab it. It still persisted to this present month, but I have been having some itching too. At times, when i put on my underwear. It seems to have become worse because I had a serious itch around my clitoris area, and I kept scratching till I felt like I had injured myself. What do I do?

You may have a yeast infection, a common condition in women. Thick white discharge, itching, and irritation are typical symptoms. Yeast infections are often due to an overgrowth of the fungus Candida. You can try an over-the-counter antifungal cream or suppository, wear cotton underwear, and avoid irritating soaps. If symptoms persist, be sure to consult a gynecologist.

Was given cyclogest 10 weeks pregnant light bleed

Female | 27

If you find, while on Cyclogest, that there is mild bleeding and you are ten weeks into the pregnancy then you must be observant. There are times when a little bleeding might occur during the early stages of pregnancy and this could be attributed to several causes such as implantation, hormonal changes, or infections. To get further advice and assessment done, it would be best if you get in touch with your doctor immediately. Meanwhile, rest, drink water, and look after yourself.

Every month 11th I get my menstrual period, this month 10th had unprotected sex, but I didn't get menstrual period on 11th , I took emergency Contraceptive pill on 12th afternoon, today is 16th but I didn't get menstrual period, is there any chances of pregnancy ? I don't want to get pregnant.

Commonly, a contraceptive called plan B can lead to some irregularity with your monthly cycle. A delayed period can be your pill or stress because you are scared of getting pregnant. You might face side effects such as bloating and breast tenderness. To be sure if you are pregnant, perform a pregnancy test 7 days after your missed period.

I am pregnant in 9 weeks. At my last scan, they said I have a possible hematoma with dimmensions 8/5 mm. They said it is small and nothing to worry about. Also I had no bleeding or brown discharge. So what should I do?

Female | 20

If your doctor has told you that the hematoma is small and not a cause for concern, then it is likely that they have assessed the situation carefully and do not see any immediate risks to your pregnancy.

A negligible amount of precum might have come near vagina wall. Is it necessary to take ipills ?

Female | 20

The likelihood of pregnancy from precum alone is generally considered low. If you're concerned about the possibility of pregnancy, you may want to consider taking contraceptives.These pills are most effective when taken as soon as possible after unprotected intercourse, preferably within the first 24-72 hours
