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.

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.

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?

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.

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.
