Vaginal Odor and Itching: Causes and Treatment
Smelling vagina and itching

Social Obstetrics And Gynecologist
Answered on 5th Sept '24
You might have an infection if you smell an unpleasant odor from your vagina and feel itchy. A yeast infection or bacterial vaginosis often causes these symptoms. However, they are easily treatable with medicines. Don't use scented soaps or douches. Wear cotton underwear. Keep the area dry and clean too. If symptoms persist, see a gynecologist. They can examine you and prescribe treatment.

Could pink spots of blood after sex mean I could be pregnant
Female | 19
PINK SPOTS after sex could indicate IMPLANTATION BLEEDING... Implantation bleeding happens when the fertilized egg attaches itself to the uterine lining... This type of bleeding may be mistaken for a period, but it is usually lighter and shorter than a normal period... However, there could be other reasons for spotting after sex, like a cervical polyp or infection... Wait and see if your PERIOD comes, if not, take a PREGNANCY TEST... If you experience heavy bleeding, abdominal pain, or fever, go see a DOCTOR...

I didn't get my period after unprotected sex with my Lover
Female | 22
You didn't get your period after having sex that is protected, the possibility is that you have become pregnant. The symptoms you might be feeling are common like getting sick, tired, or having tender breasts. Pregnancy is the most common cause when it comes to missed periods. The most precise way to know is by taking a pregnancy test. If this comes out positive make sure to set up an appointment with a gynecologist and talk about the possible options as well as your next steps.

Im not getting my periods for 2 months, 1 week ago I took pregnancy test twice, it shows horizontal line in control, consulted gynaecologist USG was done,there is no signs of pregnancy, then from the doctor's advice I took norethisterone tab for 2 days 3 times a day, still I'm not getting my periods back.
Female | 21
Lacking your period for 2 months can be a cause for concern. Stress, losing or gaining weight, or the imbalance of your hormones can result in your losing your period. The pills you took are just one part of the period starter. It's great that the ultrasound gave a negative result for the pregnancy test. Even if your cycle does not come, don't get panicked first. The best way to handle this situation is to get some advice from a gynecologist.

I want to know about some symptoms that will indicate that I might have complications during abortion
Female | 22
Abortion-related symptoms such as severe pain or cramping, heavy bleeding, fever, and feeling very unwell could mean complications. They may be upfront with diagnosis, or they can be miscarriages, or they could be detonation of the uterus. If these symptoms are present, you should immediately seek medical attention from a gynecologist for an appropriate examination and treatment.

I see red spot blood on my underwear so I assume its my period coming however I was expecting my period the 28/29 of this month i now see brown blood when i wipe I see pinkish blood i am aware of these blood at the beginning or end of a period but if its the beginning why is it not flowing cause now am not see anything and I am worried I don't know what to do i am stress and depressed
Female | 19
Periods sure can be puzzling sometimes. Those spots on your undies could mean it's starting. Brown or pinkish when you wipe often happens at the start or finish of your cycle. Stress can mess with timing too. Stay calm, note what's happening, and maybe chat with a gynecologist if you're unsure.

I missed my periods or it got delayed don’t know I have gone through PMS and ovulation as well which went well also no pregnancy symptoms not even pcos or pcod what should I do
Female | 20
There can be many reasons for the delay or absence of periods. Stresses, ups, and downs of weight, excessive exercise, or hormonal imbalance could be some of the common reasons besides pregnancy and PCOS/PCOD. The fact that periods are sometimes irregular is also true. If you are not worried, give it a little longer. If the matter continues, think of contacting a gynecologist.

My mom age 46 meri mama ko period aty ha lakin bleeding nai hoti or abdomen ma halki si dard bhi hoti ha or belly ka weight bhi thora bar rha ha or bleeding bilkul bhi nai hota light sa spot only
Female | 46
It appears that your mom has a condition called spotting when she bleeds very lightly or has some spotting between her periods. It happens due to hormonal changes, stress, or some medications. Mild abdominal pain and weight gain may also arise from hormonal imbalances. Encourage her to see a gynecologist for further evaluation and proper treatment to address these symptoms.

Female | 46
The itching and pain in your vagina might be due to a fungal infection, especially if you recently took antibiotics. The discomfort due to fungi can be treated. Using Candid V6 was a good start, but if the itching persists, you may need to see another gynecologist for further advice. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry and avoid tight clothing.

Heavy menstrual pain is a widespread problem for many women. So many causes like fibroids, endometriosis, or irregular periods are possible. I recommend to your woman friend to see a gynecologist who will make a diagnosis and give her the right treatment.

Hi my daughter need internal altra sound scan.for Overy cyst.we are muslim.i see online device that use to do internal scan.can you explain for me for un married girls.
Female | 16
I understand your concerns regarding your daughter’s situation. Ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs that can occur in the ovaries and might cause symptoms like pelvic pain or irregular periods. Internal ultrasound is a common and safe procedure used to visualize these cysts. For unmarried women, this procedure is medically appropriate and performed for privacy and comfort. It’s important to discuss any worries with a gynecologist who can guide you through the process and recommend the best course of action. Seeking professional advice helps ensure the best care for your daughter’s health.

Female | 28
Hormonal birth control methods, such as pills or patches, can help delay menstruation; starting a new pack immediately may be effective. Some people also find that certain medications prescribed by gynecologists can assist in this. They can provide personalized advice based on your health history and needs, ensuring both safety and efficacy.

I am 5 weeks preganant. I have been having stomach pain for 8 days.
Female | 18
Stomach pain early in pregnancy can be due to the many changes your body is going through, which are often normal. However, it could also indicate a more serious issue, such as an infection or a problem with the pregnancy. Other symptoms like bleeding or fever may also suggest complications. It is important to consult your gynecologist, as they can identify the cause and provide the best treatment for you and your baby.

Hello i want to know some answer about pregnant time which type of medicine use during cough.
Female | 23
It is advisory during pregnancy not to possess any medicine without seeing a doctor first. Coughing can be triggered by different diseases that are perceivable such as allergies, infections, or even asthma. Pregnant females must discuss their complaint with their gynecologist for an accurate diagnosis and a planned treatment. Taking medicine given without doctor's prescription is dangerous not only to the woman but also to the baby.

Female | 21
If you have a regular menstrual cycle of 25-26 days, then it is likely that you are experiencing a delay in your period. It could be because of stress, weight changes, PCOS, thyroid and hormonal imbalances. I recommend to seek help from gynecologist.

Sir, I had physical relations on 17th September but my normal period came on 7th October and now it should have come on 7th November but it did not come. Earlier also it used to get delayed by 10-15 days. Can I get pregnant?
Female | 24
The reality of the situation is that a natural conception can occur if you have been having sexual intercourse. On some occasions, the duration of the menstrual cycle might change a little and periods will show up at various times, or if the cycle is delayed and you start to experience different sensations, such as tiredness, nausea, or breast tenderness, you could take a pregnancy test and also visit a gynecologist.

26 Female 1 kid (6)- 1 pregnancy, fairly healthy, exercise regularly, don’t drink, eat right- intense period pain and pain that last all the time in lower back, feel like string between belly button and pee spot, extensive bloating, huge blood clots.. no doctor, can barely move around presently.. they told me the last time I went to the ER 6 months ago when I thought my uterus was falling out that nothing was wrong- I don’t want to go if no one else sees a reason to go? I don’t know what to do but I don’t know how much longer I can do this
Female | 26
Based on what you’ve said, there might be a problem with your reproductive system. Severe period pain, backaches, bloating, and passing clots can be signs of conditions such as endometriosis or fibroids. These may match what you’re going through and they can also cause a lot of discomfort. You should see a gynecologist so that they can check you out properly and make sure that they know what it is. They might offer treatments like managing the pain, using hormones or in some cases, surgery may even be necessary.

महिला | 29
Chemical pregnancies are one of the pregnancy types that are usually caused by poor hormonal balance in a woman's body. Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, or PCOS, is a disorder of the female reproductive system that causes childbirth difficulties. The signs of the problem are widespread among patients in the form of irregular menses, weight gain, and action. PCOD must be treated by making life changes like a balanced diet and physical activities. Consult a gynecologist for professional and personalized advice.

I am 7 weeks pregnant. I woke up due to intense cramping all over my stomach, mainly upper. I could still move and talk normally. Now they have gone down but I still feel it like my stomach is tight and when I press, it hurts more. Could you please give me some insight?
Female | 27
You're experiencing pain around the round ligaments, which is common during pregnancy. This happens as your body adapts to support your growing baby. When the ligaments stretch, they can cause cramping and tightness in your stomach. To relieve the pain, try lying on your side, taking a warm bath, or doing gentle stretches. Make sure to stay hydrated, and if the pain doesn't improve or gets worse, consult a gynecologist.
