It seems that you may have a yeast infection. Yeast infections can occur in girls of any age. They may cause itching and a discharge that looks like cottage cheese. When the body’s pH balance is thrown off, yeast infections are more likely. Cotton underwear should be worn and tight clothing should be avoided. You can buy over-the-counter creams for yeast infections. If the problem doesn’t get better, talk to a gynecologist. Keep the area clean and dry and try not to scratch it.

My last period was 26 March and I think I conceived on the 3rd or 4th of may. My cycles are usually 40 days long and I’m getting all pregnancy symptoms but negative or faint tests

Female | 22

If your last period was on March 26 and you suspect pregnancy from early May, pregnancy tests might not show accurate results if taken too early. Wait at least a week after a missed period for a more reliable test. Use your first morning urine for better accuracy.

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.

Good day, i need to check regarding my wife HCG test, it's showing quantity 2622.43 mlU/ml, it's means positive.

Female | 25

An HCG level of 2622.43 mlU/ml indicates a positive pregnancy test. HCG is a hormone produced during pregnancy, and its presence in a woman's blood or urine is a strong indicator of pregnancy. However, the HCG levels can vary widely between individuals.

I'm 22 years old,I got my period on May 20-23.I had sex on 29,i used ECp on May 31st to prevent ovulation (I was like 5-6 days away from ovulation).I started to have brown discharge and mild cramps on June 9.It turned red on 10 and today being 11.It doesn't really stain my paint liner. I only get drops when I pee or poop.Normal?. When will it stop as well?.

Female | 22

The brown discharge could be old blood and early signs of the period starting. The routine of the ECp may have altered your cycle. Cramps are usually mild during periods. The bleeding should cease within a few days. It’s fine to observe for now. If it becomes heavy or lasts for a long time then you might want to have it looked at.
