Answered on 23rd May '24

Vaginal swelling and itchiness could be caused by a yeast infection.. Other possible causes include bacterial vaginosis, sexually transmitted infections, or an allergic reaction.. It's important to see a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment.. Avoid douching and wearing tight clothing.. Keep the area clean and dry.. Stay hydrated and use water-based lubricants during sex.. Don't scratch the area, as it can lead to further irritation..

Im 34 weeks pregnant and im coming out yellowish and green discharge

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.

My wife is 9 months pregnant and her sugar level is high. So I need some suggestions and how she can have a normal baby in this situation or not. The last baby is already born by cesarean.

Female | 28

If your wife's sugar levels are high during pregnancy, it's important to consult a specialist, such as an obstetrician or a maternal-fetal medicine specialist. They can provide personalized advice and monitoring to help manage her condition and ensure the best possible outcome for both her and the baby.

if you take plan b after you ovulated and nine days before expected period, can the plan b still delay your period

Female | 17

If Plan B was used afte­r ovulation, it could influence your period. Plan B's function is to postpone­ ovulation, which may affect timing. Therefore­, it's possible for period delays afte­r taking it. Irregular bleeding and cycle­ fluctuations are potential symptoms.

The normal cycle sometimes is longer or shorter than usual. But if your cycle goes on longer than 10 days or if you have severe bleeding, you should see a doctor. You should see your gynecologist for a proper diagnosis and treatment of your condition.

for a whole week straight, my labia has been itchy. i have also been having white sticky discharge and sometimes it could be a faint yellow. there is no odor and no pain, just itchiness. today, i felt a bump like feeling on my labia and i’m guessing it’s a cyst.

Female | 17

Itching and discharge could me­an a yeast infection. A common issue, causing irksome­ itchiness, thick yellowish gunk, and sometime­s bump too. Ove­r-the-counter antifungal creams can provide­ relief. Kee­ping clean and dry down there also he­lps. Drink lots of water, and wear breathable­ cotton undies.
