View allI've been noticing a blue discharge on my underwear and I'm really not sure what's going on. This isn't the first time it's happened, but I haven't figured out what's causing it. I've tried using Candid ointment, but it hasn't made a difference. Can you help me understand what might be happening?
Blue vaginal discharge isn't typical and might indicate a reaction to products like dyed fabrics, infections, or rare conditions like chromhidrosis. Since Candid ointment hasnt helped, please consult a gynecologist for a thorough checkup and proper diagnosis. Avoid scented products or tight clothing in the meantime.

I'm a 28-year-old woman and I'm married. My period was supposed to start around the 24th or 25th this month, but it's late. Usually, I have a regular cycle and it doesn't skip. This time, I tried to prepone my cycle by a couple of days, so I took Primolut N twice a day for three days on the 12th, 13th, and 14th. I waited 5 days after that for my period to start, but nothing happened. Could Primolut N be causing any side effects, like delaying my period or stopping it altogether? What should I do now?
rimolut N, containing norethisterone, can cause changes in menstrual cycle, including delayed or absent periods, as a common side effect, especially when taken in high doses or for extended periods, and since you've already waited 5 days after stopping the medication, it's recommended to wait a few more days and if your period doesn't start, take a pregnancy test and consult your gynecologist for further guidance and to rule out any underlying hormonal imbalances.

I've been diagnosed with a chocolate cyst in my left ovary and I'm not sure what surgery to go for should I just get the cyst removed or opt for a hysterectomy too? I'm worried about how this might affect me long-term and what the best option would be for my health
Cyst removal alone is usually sufficient for chocolate cysts. Hysterectomy is rarely necessary unless there are multiple complications or future fertility is not a concern.
