Should I worry about fibroadenomas in my breasts?

I am a 26 year old female. I discovered fibroadenomas in my breast when I was 18. I have 8-9 lesions in each breast, not big ones. I get them checked every year. Is this something I need to be worried about?

It is good that you check your bre­ast lumps every year. Fibroade­nomas are growths in the breast that are­ not cancer. You may feel a lump or se­e changes in breast shape­. These lumps happen whe­n gland and tissue cells grow too much. Most times, no tre­atment is neede­d if the lump does not grow or hurt. Kee­p seeing your doctor each ye­ar, and you will be okay.

i was recently diagnosed with a bacterial infection in my vagina , i’ve noticed very painful white spots surrounding my vulva, what are these? i’ve been on antibiotics for 2 days.

Female | 14

The white spots around your vulva could be a sign of severe bacterial infection, named as Bacterial vaginosis. It is recommended that the condition be confirmed by a gynecologist who can perform the necessary examination and diagnosis. Depending on the severity of the infection, additional treatment with antibiotics will be prescribed.

Had sex on 11 day after period, I pill taken after 23 hours, 11 days to go their is no periods

Female | 20

It’s fine if your period is late after taking Plan B because it messes with your cycle. Some symptoms like spotting, feeling sick, or changes in the timing of your menstrual cycle are pretty normal too. Remember that stress may also cause a delay in your period so try not to worry too much about it. Everything should return to normal soon enough.  If not though, then maybe think about getting a pregnancy test.

I was pregnant knowing this I took abortion pill but abortion was brown spotting some times no complete bleed after i have checked pregnancy kit it's showing positive

Female | 18

You may have e­xperienced an incomple­te abortion, meaning some pre­gnancy tissue remains in your body. Spotting brown discharge inste­ad of full bleeding can sometime­s occur in this situation. This indicates not all pregnancy tissue was e­xpelled from your uterus. Incomple­te abortions increase infe­ction risk and other complications.

My vagina has small white patches all around the inside and I burning so so bad and even when I pee as well, I can hardly even wipe when I use the toilet. The discharge is thick.

Female | 17

It could be a yeast infection. In cases of the yeast infection, the white patches, anal burning, and thick discharge would be among the main symptoms. They happen when there's too much yeast in the vagina. If the common problem is treated with over-the-counter antifungal creams and pills, it will possibly be resolved. Make sure that you wear only cotton underwear and that you stay away from scented products. Drink plenty of water and stay away from sweet foods to heal it.

Greenish or watery breast secretions are warning signs of breast infection or a hormonal imbalance. It is advisable to see a gynecologist, for an accurate diagnosis and treatment. Do not wait for the symptoms to get worse and consult a doctor.

I’m 42 and I haven’t had a period in 3 months and the 3 before were lighter shorter but very crampy . 12 months ago I was having heavier, longer and more painful periods. I had an ultrasound, an internal ultrasound and a Pap test which all showed everything is normal. Recently I saw an OB GYN. I asked if I could be perimenopausal. She asked if I get hot flashes and when I said no she basically brushed off the question. I don’t get hot flashes and know that not always a symptom. I do have more facial hair, mood swings, sleep problems, night sweats and obviously irregular periods. She did a biopsy of my uterine lining. She did not ask if there was any possibility that I could be pregnant first. I am most likely not as my boyfriend has retrograde ejaculation and does not ejaculate when he orgasm. Her solution was to put in an IUD which I have not had done as of yet the appointment to do so is coming up. I understand that IUDs can lessen painful heavy periods that can occur before menopause. But as I am not having periods or any signs of a period would there be any benefit to this? I have heard many horror stories of IUDs and I’m just trying to make a good decision.

Female | 42

According to your symptoms, you are most likely having perimenopause. Women are told that menopause is only certain and official after 12 consecutive months without menstruating. It is suggested that you have a discussion with a gynecologist in regard to your symptoms and worries. They can make the decision for you whether an IUD will be suitable for you
