Skin issues with PCOS
I am a 20 year old woman. I'm suffering from acne from past few years, but now that've researched about it I realized that I have symptoms of PCOS. I do have hair growth on my face, stomach, back, etc. I get irregular periods by a week or 2. My bmi is normal so that is not considered. I struggle alot with it. I compare myself to women with clear and hairless bodies. I need a solution.

PCOS brings hormonal issues that affect the ovaries. It causes irregular periods and undesirable hair growth like acne or extra body hair. A doctor may recommend changes to lifestyle, take medicines, or suggest treatments to control symptoms. See a gynecologist for proper diagnosis and management. They can best assess whether you have PCOS based on your particular symptoms.

Female | 43
This may be due to hormonal issues, fibroids, or stress. Eat nutritious foods, exercise, and de-stress yourself to help reduce the symptoms. But medication or a procedure might be required if it persists. Don't hesitate to consult a gynecologist for a proper diagnosis.

I recently had sex with my new bf He used to have multiple partners V didn’t use any contraceptives And that was my first time it was very hard for me Now after 7 days i have severe abdominal pain And very heavy watery discharge and little white discharge I used to have fever for the past 3 days in evenings n joint pain too Now i dont But the abdominal pain n discharge is still there n is very bad I started on doxy n metro n clindac yesterday as said by my gyn What is the problem?? Is it serious
Female | 22
The strong lower abdominal pain, large watery discharge and also the white discharge can suggest an infection. These symptoms coupled with the fever and joint aches could be an indication of a sexually transmitted infection (STI) or pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). It’s great that you’ve started on antibiotics as per your gynecologist’s prescription. Ensure that you finish all the antibiotics prescribed and then see your doctor for more tests and treatment.

I have been spotting for 15 days ,it started on the day of menstruation and hasn't stopped since. Is it a cause for concern?
Female | 26
Spotting for such a long period can be alarming. It may occur as a result of hormonal changes, the presence of fibroids in the uterus, or even infections. Yeast infections or pelvic pain could be related to other symptoms and menstrual disorders. Monitor your symptoms closely and schedule an appointment with a gynecologist for a health checkup. Diagnosing the cause is necessary to ensure the right treatment is given.

Can hcg show positive on a pregnancy test strip while la m towards my menses??
Female | 24
Yes definitely it is possible for a pregnancy test to show a positive result while you are approaching your menstrual period. Pregnancy tests detect the presence of the hormone human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine, which is typically produced during pregnancy. You can confirm it with another test or urine pregnancy test.

Hi mam I'm lavanya age 24 now I'm pregnant missed April month period.last period time is March 1st week . I done pregnant test at home
Female | 24
Missed periods and positive home tests show you're expecting. Early signs include feeling queasy, tired, sore breasts. These happen due to hormone changes. It's natural! Make an appointment with your gynecologist for prenatal care.

Late menstruation but I'm not involved in any kind of sexual activities
Female | 20
Your monthly cycle can be delayed due to several reasons. Stress, weight fluctuations, or new exercise routines might disrupt the regular pattern. This is normal, so don't panic. However, monitor closely. If irregularities persist or you have concerns, visit a gynecologist.

What effective treatment options are available for persistent green vaginal discharge caused by E. coli infection that has not responded to doxycycline, metronidazole, and clotrimazole vaginal suppositories?
Female | 30
If you have had green vaginal discharge for a year and an hvs test shows an E. coli infection, consult your doctor for appropriate treatment. Antibiotics are used normally, but if the prescribed medication hasn't been effective, your doctor will make further evaluation and adjustments accordingly.

Hello, Dr.! My girlfriend and I had a sexual encounter. We had oral sex and fingered each other. However, our genitals accidentally touched two or three times for a few seconds each. There was no penetration during the deed; just the Penis touched the vulva; there was no rubbing or ejaculating anywhere near her (I ejaculated 5-10 mins after the touching of our genitals). But I was scared because of the genital touching and fingering (I did not ejaculate on my hand and after ejaculation I did not touch her genitals and I did fingering before oral sex), so I began reading articles on the internet, and all of them stated that there is a chance of getting pregnant because pre-cum contains sperms. She also had her periods on June 10, 2022, and we were engaged in this action on June 19 , 2022. She also took an i-pill within 24 hours as a precaution. Is there any hope of becoming pregnant?

My mother have a urine problem,have to pee Avery hour.we got some tests done and we also got her thyroid checked? The doctor has said that the Uterus has shifted so there is a 1% chance of getting the operation done, so start the medicine...so please tell me what to do. I can send you reports
Female | 47
The uterus moving may press her bladder, causing this. The gynecologist gave medicine as surgery is a small chance. She should take the prescribed drugs as instructed. This may ease symptoms. Follow treatment fully. Keep updating the doctor about any changes or worries.

How many days after sex I can able to know that I'm a pregnant
Female | 21
After sex, it usually takes 1-2 weeks to tell if you’re pregnant but sometimes there are signs like nausea, tiredness, or changes in appetite which occur when a fertilized egg attaches itself to the wall of the womb. To make sure though, take a home pregnancy test; it’s easy and will give you an answer.

I had a new born babe right after the delivery I use vape and now my breast have no milk what can I do doctor
Female | 28
You have to stop using the vape immediately. Nicotine could prevent the production of milk and cause harm to your baby`s health. Consult with a specialist in lactation or gynecologist to help to enhance your milk production and the well-being of both you and your baby.

I am taking unwanted 72 in 3rd January after one week I have spotting and it's continue to 6 days after this I have my period in 3 days here any chance of pregnancy??
Female | 21
No chances of pregnancy because after taking unwanted 72 what happens is, the spotting is result of withdrawal of the hormone progesterone present, that is called withdrawal bleeding after taking unwanted 72. You can also consult the best Gynecologist in Mumbai for further information.

How to delay periods? Last period date 26 March.
Female | 43
Taking special medicine can delay monthly cycles. A prescription called "norethindrone" can temporarily stop periods. However, self-medicating poses risks of side effects. If rescheduling your period is necessary, always consult with your doctor first. They will prescribe the medication correctly and explain its usage based on your cycle details. Sharing the date of your last period helps ensure accurate medical guidance.

Female | 20
Although the emergency contraceptive pill called 'unwanted pregnancy' which can be taken within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse may prevent pregnancy, it has no perfect results. Different conditions can result in your delay periods, such as stress and hormone imbalance. So, you should go for a gynecologist consultation for appropriate checkups and treatment.

I take the pill continuously skipping sugar pills to fully prevent my period but I’ve just had unprotected sex and I don’t want to get pregnant what do I do
Female | 18
It is no longer than taking emergency contraceptives at the earliest. It is also advisable to set up a date with a gynecologist who can provide you with other suitable methods of birth control to replace the ones that do not work for you.

I had a c section delivery 1 year ago and now after 1 year me and my husband are trying to have sex but I am uncomfortable because as soon as he enters his penis inside my vagina I get a lot of pain so he's unable to enter..please let me know what are the solutions for this and how do we start again..??
Female | 35
It’s common to feel discomfort due to scar tissue and changes in sensitivity. To help, try using lubrication to reduce friction with your partner. Take things slowly, and keep communication open about what feels comfortable. If the pain continues, don’t hesitate to ask your gynecologist for more help.

Kidney stone problem , stone size is 9.3 mm in mid pole and lump in uterus
Female | 38
To take care of this condition one may be required to drink huge amounts of water, and drugs and in extreme cases go through an operation to remove it altogether. A lump found inside a woman’s womb might result in irregular periods; you should see a urologist/gynecologist who will look into it more and decide on proper treatment.

i'm suffering from Bartholin's cyst..It's now 3 days and it's painful
Female | 30
A Bartholin’s cyst occurs when a gland near the vagina becomes blocked. Often, you’ll experience a lump or swelling as well as some discomfort. To relieve the pain and encourage drainage, take warm baths several times a day. If this doesn’t help within a week or if things get worse, you should see a gynecologist.
