What medication for vaginal, oral, and nipple thrush?
I think I have vaginal thrush (itchy and cheese like discharge in my vaginal). What medication can I use to treat it? My 15 months old son has oral thrush (white patches in his mouth that leaves injury when I try to wipe it). What medication can I use for him? I would also need to treat nipple thrush because I'm still breastfeeding him.

You and your son might have thrush, a fungus infection caused by Candida. Vaginal thrush could make you feel itchy and produce a discharge that looks like cheese. Typically, you’ll be advised to use antifungal creams or tablets. Treatment for oral thrush in your son can involve antifungal oral gel or drops. To avoid transmitting the infection back and forth, both of you might need treatment for nipple thrush. Make sure you take all the medicine prescribed for you to fully recover.

my period had changed to being redish brown in for 2 months now and the gose to red the next day
Female | 17
It is normal for periods to change color a little bit, but if this lasts for 2 months it is important to know why. At the beginning it may be reddish brown which means old blood – this is normal. When it turns red it could be new blood. Hormones or stress may be causing these changes. Drink water, eat well, and rest. If it doesn't stop, consult with a gynecologist.

I just had little spotting after taking misoprostol drugs yesterday and today no bleeding why??
Female | 22
You may see some spotting after you take misoprostol. This is common and normal. The drug can cause light bleeding. Do not worry if you do not see more bleeding after the spotting. The medicine may have already done its job. If you are not sure, it is best to speak with a gynecologist.

I’ve been on desogestrel rowex pill for the last two months I haven’t got my period for two months I’m not pregnant because I’ve taken a pregnancy test and it’s negative
Female | 34
Missing periods may happen when taking desogestrel rowex pills. It is a common side effect. Some people don't bleed at all. There's no need to worry, it's not harmful. Your body just changes a bit. If concerned, talk to your gynecologist.

Female | 23
Bleeding after intimacy might seem alarming, yet often has simple causes like cervical sensitivity. Still, your well-being comes first. Promptly inform your gynecologist about any post-coital bleeding. They'll investigate potential causes and advise next steps, ensuring you and baby's safety.

I am writing on behalf of my wife who is also the patient. She is going through a lot of mood swings and we have searched a lot on the internet about it. Lately we have realised that the symptoms correspond to a strong case of Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder. I wanted to know the remedy, the natural ones that can we can employ for mood swings to be less painful.
Female | 26
Your wife's mood swings are a concern. Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder involves severe mood and physical issues before periods. This means sadness, anxiety, irritability - feelings that disrupt daily life. To help naturally, try exercising regularly, eating well, reduce stress through deep breaths or meditation. Sleep and routine are vital too. However, if symptoms seriously impact her day-to-day, consulting a gynecologist is advisable for further assistance.

I am using vaginal pessaries since 3 days as I have yeast infection. But today I got my periods. Can i still use vaginal pessaries Or i should stop using it??
Female | 22
While menstruating, it's fine to continue using vaginal pessaries. Yeast infections may cause discomfort like itching, burning, and abnormal discharge. Pessaries deliver medication directly where needed, treating the infection. Follow usage instructions for pessaries during your period.

My period used to be irregular but since I started diet exercise I got my period again after 10 days of my period. What is the reason for this?
Female | 30
It seems that your menstrual cycle is altering. Physical activities and dietary changes can affect hormone levels and result on a regular menstruation. Abrupt lifestyle shifts can provoke early periods at times. Continue tracking startup if it persists while scheduling an appointment with a gynecologist for further concerns.

Depending on your symptoms, it could be an implantation bleeding. However, to confirm pregnancy and rule out other potential issues, you should go see a gynecologist. I would suggest a visit to a specialist in obstetrics and gynecology for assessment and appropriate treatment.

My sister is 6 month of pregnancy. In her echo cardiograph test, report found umbilical portal systemic veins shunt. What should I do?? How much it is serious.
Female | 27
An umbilical portal systemic veins shunt appeared on your sister's echo cardiograph test. This condition affects blood flow in the baby's body, potentially leading to encephalopathy - a problem causing developmental delays. Speaking to a pediatric heart specialist is crucial. They may advise close monitoring during pregnancy and after birth, ensuring the best outcome for your sister and the baby. Early detection and proper management significantly impact the situation.

Female | 22
If your period is delayed for longer than usual, it could be due to various reasons. Common causes include stress, hormonal imbalances, changes in weight, or lifestyle factors. It might also indicate underlying medical conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), thyroid issues, or other hormonal disorders. It's important to monitor your symptoms, and if your period continues to be delayed or irregular, I recommend consulting a gynecologist to identify the cause and receive appropriate treatment.

I m 33 yrs old, mother of a 3 year toddler. I got my last period on 6th February. We did unprotected sex on 23,24,26,28th February. Is there any chance of pregnancy
Female | 33
there should be a possibility that you can be pregnant if you did not use a protective method during your fertile period, which is around 14 days after the first day of your last period. Thus, she may have a chance to become pregnant. You should consult a gynecologist and take a pregnancy test as the next step of the process.

Why is my LMP gestation is 38 weeks 4 days and gestation age by BPD /FL is 34 weeks
Female | 24
The Last Menstrual Period (LMP) calculates gestation from the start of your last period, while gestational age by Biparietal Diameter (BPD) or Femur Length (FL) measures the baby's size. The difference in weeks might be due to variations in fetal growth rates. Your obstetrician can provide more insight and guidance based on these measurements. It's always best to consult them for a clearer understanding of your pregnancy progress.

If I have sex 3-4 days after my period, can I get pregnant?
Female | 26
Yes, you can get pregnant having sex 3-4 days after your period. Sperm can live inside your body for up to 5 days..and if you ovulate earlier than usual, say, in a 25-day cycle, the chances of pregnancy are even higher. Always use contraception unless you're trying to conceive.
