Ensure that you gently clean the surgery area with mild soap and water, carefully dry it, and avoid using any harsh chemicals. Additionally, loose cotton underwear, which does not trap moisture, can potentially prevent the infection. If you experience any unexpected discomfort, such as more pain redness, swelling, or discharge you should immediately consult a gynecologist to get proper advice.

I know it is a lame question as There is no chance but for The sake of anxiety and concern I had to ask this. And if there is any chance what Should I do for not getting pregnant ? Kindly revert back as Im very anxious .

Extreme period pain can be caused by disorders like PCOD, which may also explain the body hair you mentioned. To manage the pain, try warm baths, gentle exercise, and over-the-counter pain relievers. Regarding pregnancy, the chances of penetration or ejaculation are extremely low.

I have very panic itching inside and outside of vagina and also having redness, inflammation, swelling and burning sensation. Also having bad smell from vagina

Female | 28

There's a chance you have a yeast infection. Itching, redness, swelling, and a burning sensation are some of the symptoms. It smells bad because of this reason. So yeast infections are a result of a build-up of yeast in the vagina. The usage of antifungal creams that can be bought at the drugstore would also be beneficial to solve it.

According to your symptoms, you might be having a miscarriage or an ectopic pregnancy. I urge you to make an appointment with a gynecologist right away as these conditions require immediate medical assistance. A gynecologist will diagnose and treat you correctly.

Hello! I am a virgin and i have had my period for 2 years but i’ve been to scared to put a tampon in so i always use pads. But when i try to put a tampon in it kind of burns or hurts when i stick it up? Is this something to be worried about?

Pain during tampon insertion may indicate vaginal dryness or irritation that requires a consultation with an expert. This needs to be addressed so that you can manage your period cycle comfortably.

I recommend that you contact your gynecologist or obstetrician right away. This could be a sign of infection that left untreated will harm both you and the baby. Your doctor will give a diagnosis and treatment options for that condition.
