Can you feel cervical dysplasia?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Usually, there are no symptoms of cervical dysplasia. Genital warts are a sign that someone has been exposed to certain types of HPV

Cervical dysplasia often does not cause noticeable symptoms, especially in its early stages. Many women, including those around 30 years old, may not feel any symptoms at all.
Key points to understand:
- Definition: Cervical dysplasia refers to abnormal changes in the cells on the surface of the cervix.
- Detection: It is usually detected through routine Pap smear tests rather than through symptoms.
- Possible Symptoms: When symptoms do occur, they might include unusual vaginal bleeding, spotting between periods, or after intercourse, but these are not common.
- Importance of Screening: Because symptoms are often absent, regular cervical screening is important for early detection and management.
If you have concerns or notice any unusual symptoms, it’s best to consult a gynecologist for appropriate evaluation and guidance. Regular screening remains the best way to catch cervical dysplasia early and prevent progression to cervical cancer.

View allI was recently diagnosed with endometriosis and have cysts in both ovaries two on the left (2cm and 3cm) and one on the right (2cm). My gynecologist is recommending laparoscopy, but I'm wondering if there are any medications or injections that could treat the endometriosis and help me conceive instead of surgery
While medications and injections can help manage endometriosis and its symptoms, they often don't resolve the underlying condition. Laparoscopy may be recommended for endometriomas (cysts) that are painful, growing, or larger than 4cm, or when fertility is a goal. Medications like birth control pills, progestins, and GnRH agonists can help suppress the growth of endometriosis tissue and relieve pain, but they don't eliminate the cyst

I've been having these painful and burning bumps down there that I think are vaginal boils. It's really uncomfortable. I'm also dealing with some white discharge. Could you guide me on what I should do or take to help with these issues?
Medications and Constipation_ 1. _Codeine_: A common side effect of codeine is constipation, which can be exacerbated by other medications like antibiotics. 2. _Paracetamol_: While paracetamol is less likely to cause constipation, it can contribute to the problem when combined with other medications. _Laxative Use Precautions_ 1. _Consult your healthcare provider_: Before taking any laxative, including Senokot, consult your healthcare provider to discuss the best approach for managing constipation. 2. _Choose a gentle laxative_: If recommended by your healthcare provider, a gentle laxative like Senokot (containing senna) may be suitable. However, avoid stimulant laxatives or those containing bisacodyl. 3. _Monitor for interactions_: Be aware of potential interactions between laxatives and your prescribed medications, such as antibiotics and codeine. 4. _Adequate hydration_: Drink plenty of water to help prevent constipation and facilitate laxative effectiveness. 5. _Dietary adjustments_: Increase fiber intake through foods like fruits, vegetables, and whole grains to help regulate bowel movements. _Alternative Constipation Management Options_ 1. _Prune juice or fiber supplements_: Your healthcare provider may recommend alternative constipation management options, such as prune juice or fiber supplements. 2. _Gastrointestinal motility agents_: In some cases, medications like metoclopramide may be prescribed to help stimulate bowel movements.
