I have wart like growths formed on the external labia since last two months. Not sure if its STI or something else. The last time i got intimate was in August 2023, we used a condom and didn't have multiple partners. Should i visit a gynecologist or dermatologist?

Female | 28

One must have the wart-like growths found on the outside lips of the genitalia checked by a physician. Such growths could be due to a viral infection such as HPV which is not always associated with sexual activity. A gynecologist can help to determine what has caused them and advise on the most appropriate treatment.

I'm experiencing old blood (black in colour)during my period from the first day to the fourth day(today)and the flow is same.Also it's the first time this has happened. I'm not bleeding fresh blood, which is concerning. What should I do?Typically, I bleed old blood only on the first day of my period, and by the night of the first day, I start to bleed fresh blood. However, this time, that's not the case, and it's now my fourth day, with only a small amount of old blood compared to my previous menstrual cycles

Female | 24

Old blood appears darker in color. It's normal, but concerning if it's new or frequent. Stress, hormones might cause this. Note it down. If it persists, consult a doctor. Being worried is understandable. Lingering old blood during periods isn't unusual. However, monitor such occurrences. Take advice from healthcare providers if the issue doesn't resolve itself. Sudden changes demand professional opinion. Stay calm, but vigilant.

Hlo I get a lot of itching in my private part and I always feel like wet water. My 9th month will start from 11th August, what should I do?

Female | 22

You might have a yeast infection. It may be accompanied by itching and a wet sensation in the intimate areas. The natural imbalance of hormones during pregnancy makes the development of the condition frequent. For your convenience, opt for cotton underwear, avoid wearing tight clothes, and keep the area dry. Besides, you can apply anti-fungal drugs sold without a prescription in pharmacies. You also need to ensure your gynecologist is on board with it, as not all medications are safe during pregnancy while managing the condition.

Female | 25

The troubles you are feeling such as white discharge, pain all over your body, feeling faint, lack of recent period and desire to throw up might mean that you have an infection or are pregnant. The signs of disease are similar to those of pregnancy, so don't be shocked if it turns out that way but also keep in mind this other possibility. Take a pregnancy test at home if not to clear your doubts. Getting more advice from a gynecologist can also help.

It is important to notice that PCOD can cause irregular bleeding and brown rather than red discharge is also a symptom that is often noticed. Nevertheless, if it is the brown discharge that has persisted for a long time or has other symptoms, visiting a gynecologist or an endocrinologist would be a wise thing to do.

Female | 23

It's possible those symptoms might be tied to some other causes like a urinary tract infection or indigestion rather than pregnancy. The pinch pain and yellow pee could indicate an infection, while the burn in your stomach may suggest indigestion. If you took the emergency contraceptive pill, it's less likely you're pregnant. But, if you're unsure or if the symptoms persist, it's best to visit a gynecologist for a check-up.

The first day of my last period was April 1st and my expected ovulation date was April 17th. I had sex on the 13th/14th and took plan B in the morning of the 14th; I had sex again on the 19th/20th and took plan B on the morning of the 20th and I had sex on the 28th and took the plan B immediately. I am not on any contraceptive medication and my partner pulled out before ejaculating - so he said. I washed up immediately and took the pills. My period is late now and I don’t want to be pregnant. I have taken about 6 pregnancy test and they were all negative, not even a faint line of positive which is relieve. But my period is a day late and I’m worried. I took a test this morning and it was still negative. I feel tired, bloated, and I urinate frequently. What do I do?

Female | 26

Stress can make your period late. Plan B can also make your cycle different, and make your period late. Feeling tired, bloated, and peeing a lot could be from hormone changes or UTIs. Stay calm, wait a little longer, and keep watching for signs. If you are still worried, talk to a gynecologist.
