Why is my body overheated postpartum with tan skin?
A full-body tan or darkening of the skin can be due to hormonal changes or pigmentation after childbirth. The heat you feel may be caused by blood flow and energy loss from breastfeeding and caring for your baby. Stay hydrated and take plenty of rest to help cool down. Over time, your body will gradually return to its original color and shape. If the heat persists or you're concerned, contact your gynecologist.

Do I have a yeast infection or UTI?
You might have a yeast infection. Yeast infections are often characterized by the genital area where there is an itchy rash, a smelly discharge, and a painful feeling when urinating. They are caused by an overgrowth of yeast in the vagina. You can try antifungal creams from the pharmacy. Wearing cotton underwear and avoiding perfumed products are very important. If the symptoms don't go away, see a gynecologist for another check-up and treatment options.

Why Do I Experience Sharp Lower Abdominal Pains?
You have been through a lot with your abdominal pains. Therefore, considering the normal ultrasound results and the new suspicion of endometriosis from the surgeon, your pain may be due to endometriosis, the condition wherein tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus that can result in cyclical sharp pelvic pain. It's okay to talk to a gynecologist about more tests and treatments. Besides, you might want to see a gastroenterologist, too, so as to eliminate the probability of any intestinal problems causing the symptoms you are having.

Is white discharge normal post-period?
White discharge may come after your period and is not a cause for concern. In most cases, this is a sign that your body is undergoing a cleaning process and shedding old cells. However, one of the factors that can provoke this is the fluctuation of hormones. Nevertheless, in situations where the discharge is also accompanied by a strong smell, itching, or irritation, the best course of action is to consult a gynecologist for a check-up.
