I had diarrhea on September 2nd and took a 4mg Imodium tablet at night. Since yesterday, my bowel movements have completely stopped. I'm also experiencing burning and itching in my vaginal area, and there's a thick white discharge. Could this be related to the diarrhea or the Imodium tablet? Are there any OTC medicines or creams I could try for this?

I'm a bit concerned because I started bleeding for about 5 days after a dilation and curettage, then it stopped for 3 days, but now it's started again, and the bleeding is brown. Is this something normal, or should I be worried?

Bleeding 5 days after a D&C (dilation and curettage) procedure is common, and the subsequent stoppage for 3 days followed by brown-colored bleeding could be due to hormonal changes, uterine lining shedding, or minor spotting

I have ovarian cyst 5738mm with internal septation is this curable with medician or surgery

A large ovarian cyst (5738mm, which is 5.738 cm) with internal septation is unlikely to be curable with medication alone. surgery is needed for larger or persistent cysts, or those with concerning features like internal septation. While some cysts resolve spontaneously or with hormonal contraception, surgical removal (like a cystectomy) is often necessary for larger cysts or if there's suspicion of malignancy.
