Why Didn't Ointment and Pills Cure My Vaginal Yeast Infection?

Vaginal Yeast Infection. Tried ointment and pills but didn’t cure. It developed some days after I used V wash.

Yeast infection is a frequent vaginal disease that occurs when there are excessive yeasts present. Ointments and pills do not always eliminate the infection. In this situation, therefore it is advised to visit a gynecologist. Do not use products such as V wash until the disease is fully healed.

I did intercourse, but condom get ripped and when he about to came, he pulled it out. Am not sure if he pulled at right time, may be a little drop might went in. And 2 days after that I got first but very small period blood. And for the safe side i took unwanted72 after 60hrs of that incident and got headache.Is this a sign of pregnancy? Last period - 21 Date of intercourse - 12 Date of pills - 14 Date of bleeding - 14

You did the right thing and took the emergency contraception pill. The little period blood you had may be due to your body getting used to the pill. Blame it on the pill, or do you think it’s a sign of pregnancy? Moreover, you should know that yet another headache is the most common side effect of the emergency contraceptive pill. If in doubt, take a pregnancy test after a couple of weeks.

2 nights ago, I was going to have sex with my boyfriend. for 1-2 minutes he had a condom on, but it was too small and wasn’t working well. so we were going to have unprotected sex. we did this for about 30 second to a minute before he stopped, and said he couldn’t get hard enough. then we stopped completely. he didn’t finish, and was no where near being finished. but it was my first time ever having sex, so I'm nervous about it. and wondering if I could possibly be pregnant , or if I should take a plan b

The risk of pregnancy from unprotected intercourse increases if there is ejaculation, but it's still possible to conceive even without ejaculation. Consider taking a pregnancy test to confirm.

Last period was on 14th April and now its 13th may, still period is not coming. Am I pregnant? When I will do the pregnancy test after 14th.

Female | 31

Since you had a delay in your monthly period, it may be a sign of pregnancy, but there are other possible reasons particularly stress and changes in hormones. To know that you are safe you could do the test only after the 14th of May and learn if you are expecting. Your cycle is subject to the effect of countless factors in various states of your body.

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.

I'm experiencing severe nausea with back pain and lower abdominal pain. These are the symptoms I experience when I got pregnant last. My periods date was 5 August. I want to know whether I'm pregnant or it's a stomach issue

Female | 22

You’re experiencing strong nausea, a backache, and lower abdominal pain, and you’re wondering if you might be pregnant. These symptoms are common in early pregnancy, especially if you’ve had unprotected sex recently. However, they could also be caused by other digestive issues. The best way to find out is to take a pregnancy test. This will help confirm whether you’re pregnant or if something else is causing your symptoms.

I would like some more information on ectopic pregnancy

Female | 19

A fertilized egg implanting and developing outside the uterus, often in the fallopian tubes, is a serious medical condition known as an ectopic pregnancy. In rare cases, it can occur in other areas like the ovary or abdominal cavity. As the pregnancy progresses, it can lead to pain, bleeding, and life-threatening complications for the woman. Ectopic pregnancies cannot reach full term and pose a significant risk to the woman's health. If not treated, they can cause the fallopian tube or the organ where the pregnancy is located to rupture, resulting in severe internal bleeding.

Hi, According to Flo, my ovulation is today. For a few days, i have observed some bleeding/ spotting. No pain/ feeling as experienced compared to period. Is there any health concern?

Female | 22

When spotting during your ovulation, this is usually not a matter of concern. But if the bleeding does not stop or worsen, or you feel pain and discomfort then it is recommended to visit your gynecologist. They will be able to diagnose and treat if needed.

I am using Diane 35 pills. After 6 days of using we have sexual intercourse. It is possible Po ba that i am pregnant

Female | 28

If you have taken your Diane 35 pills correctly and consistently as prescribed then chances of becoming pregnant are very low. But if you have missed any pills or taken them late, the risk of pregnancy increases. Just to be sure you can take a pregnancy test.
