Answered on 7th June '24
Menopause is a normal stage in a woman's life, usually around the age of 50 or 60. Symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, and trouble sleeping can be bothersome. These symptoms happen due to hormonal changes in the body. You can try lifestyle changes like regular exercise, a healthy diet, and managing stress to help relieve these symptoms. It's also helpful to wear loose clothing and use fans to stay cool. If these tips don’t help, you can talk to a gynecologist about other treatment options.

I am a 14 year old female with concerns about developing PCOS because a family memeber of mine (Mother) has it
Female | 14
PCOS is a situation when your hormones are out of balance due to some factors like irregular menstrual cycles, the occasional pimple breakout, and sometimes being overweight, etc. But really, it can be treated in time and doesn't pass from person to person, therefore, be cautious. Certainly, one way to do it is by consuming the right food and getting you moving every day. If you suspect, go and get checked by a gynecologist.

Hi, good day Last month I visited my aunt, used the toilet at her place, the toilet was awful Two days later I started feeling this light itch in my vagina, labia majora It continued the itch became worse and I even noticed a discharge I went to the pharmacy and bought fluconazole After taking the dose the discharge stopped and the itching reduced a great deal But then I exhausted the tablet I think I took it for five days I felt the infection was gone though I still had a bit of an itch... Afterwards my period came and during the course of my period I experienced no itch but after I was done with my period the itch returned, though not as it was before I started taking fluconazole, just that I get the itch from time to time I've not had sexual intercourse before (penis in vagina).

You might have yourself a yeast infection. Yeast infections can result in itching and unusual discharge. These occur when there is an imbalance between good and bad bacteria in the vagina. This can be caused by taking certain drugs or being in a wet place such as using a dirty toilet. Buy some anti-fungal creams or tablets from your local pharmacy. Another thing you could do is wear cotton underwear more often because they’re breathable fabric and practice good hygiene so that this doesn’t happen again.

Rt ovary shows anechoic shadow with cyst. - It measures: 35.0 mm x 22.7 mm x 31.9 mm Vol-13.3 ml. RIGHT OVARY ADNEXA= Rt ovary shows anechoic shadow with cyst.
Female | 17
There is a small sack filled with fluid on the right ovary according to the report. This could be because of hormone changes among other reasons. The sac might not show any symptoms although sometimes it results in pain or irregular periods. Most of these cysts will disappear by themselves but if they do not; one may need treatment from a gynecologist.

My vagina and urethra are red in color I see red color due to mobile light Is this indicating any infection and can the light of the mobile accurately tell which color it is or not?
Female | 22
This could be caused by a yeast infection or a urinary tract infection. A physician's consultation is needed to make a definitive diagnosis as the phone light might change the color of your body. You will get better if you drink water and eat well if you want to. If it is an infection, the doctor may give you medicine to make it disappear. Visit a urologist as soon as possible.

I am 21 years old , My periods on time but no bleeding why
Female | 21
There are various potential causes of this situation. It might be because of stress, weight fluctuation, hormonal imbalance, or some types of drugs. In case it happens once in a while, there is usually nothing much to worry about. Make sure you keep tabs on your menstrual cycle and if it persists seek advice from a gynecologist who can help rule out any underlying problems.

My period should come in this week. I have been experiencing white vaginal discharge for past 2-3 days which have become a lot today. I am worried about pregnancy although i had protected sex followed by withdrawal method 3 weeks back.
Female | 20
This could be your body getting ready for your period. Stress or hormones can make it happen at other times too though. Since you used protection when having sex, there’s not much chance that this means pregnancy. Try not to get too worked up unless there are other strange signs along with the discharge, it’d be best to talk to a gynecologist.

Several disorders can be the cause of lower abdominal cramps and leg pain, including cramps associated with menstruation, and pelvic inflammatory diseases.

I am a 36 year old female. I sometimes see blood while peeing, what could the cause and the remedy doctor?
Female | 36
Having blood in your urine can be frightening, however, don’t panic. The most likely reason is a urinary tract infection (UTI). Symptoms might include pain with urination, having a frequent urge to urinate, and urine that is cloudy or smelly. Drink plenty of water to flush out the infection. Nevertheless, it is important to see a urologist so they can offer proper diagnosis and treatment.

I took unwanted 72 pill twice a month(we also used condoms) (one on 28 Feb and another on 11th march) of my cycle. My period due date was 20th March and it's one day late. What can be the reason behind it and what can be done? Can I still be pregnant?
Female | 25
Sometimes, using emergency contraception like Unwanted 72 can impact your menstrual cycle's timing. Stress, illness, routine changes - these factors can also delay your period's arrival. With the dates you provided and the condom usage, pregnancy seems unlikely. However, waiting a bit longer may yield your expected period. If concerns persist, a pregnancy test could offer reassurance.

I missed my periods yesterday and took beta HCG blood test today. I turned -ve. Is there any hope for pregnancy few days after?.... Please confirm
Female | 25
Missing a period does not confirm pregnancy, there may be other factors involved; Beta HCG is reliable for early detection of pregnancy; A negative beta test indicates the fact that you are not yet pregnant during testing. Re-test if your period still disappears after seven days or so and seek out professional medical assistance

I am an 18 year old female and a couple months ago I broke my virginity and we didn't use a condom, the second time I had sex with this person we used a condom but after the outside of my vergina starts to itch. It would itch every now and then but it wasn't bad. The third time I did it with this person we didn't use any condom and we did it in a spontaneous spot and after that the itching got worse. I don't know what to do could you please give me some advice on how to stop this. (please keep in mind that all 3 times was with the same person. Oh and by the way what I mean by the outside is the clit area)
Female | 18
Yeast infection might be why your clitoris itches. When the pH balance of your vagina changes—usually after having unprotected sex—this can occur. To relieve the itching, try using over-the-counter antifungal creams or ask for a prescription from a doctor. To avoid getting infections, always use condoms during sex.
