Question 1

I'm worried about a yeast infection after having a medical abortion last month. I took three pills of azithromycin a few days later to prevent infections, but now I've got this white discharge, itching, and some pain when I pee. Plus, there are a couple of small pimples inside my vagina. I also had rashes on my breasts and arms which went away after taking Citrizine. Is it usual to get a yeast infection after this kind of procedure, or could it be something else?

Accepted Answer

Yeast infections can occur after a medical abortion due to changes in hormone levels and the body's immune response. The symptoms you are experiencing, such as white discharge, itching, and pain while urinating, are common signs of a yeast infection. The rash on your breasts and arms may also be related to the infection. To treat the yeast infection, you can use an antifungal medication such as Fluconazole. The usual dosage is a single 150mg dose. Additionally, practicing good hygiene, wearing loose-fitting clothing, and avoiding irritants can help prevent further infections. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

Question 2

I've had a right adnexal cyst since 2021, and the size keeps changing it was 86x54x40 mm in August 2021, then 71x39x53 mm in September, 72x42x55 mm in October, and 59x45x71 mm in November. By September 2022, it grew to 103x70x52 mm and now extends into the POD. Should I try medicine first or go for surgery? If surgery is needed, would it be open or laparoscopic? Also, what's the approximate cost for this treatment?

Accepted Answer

surgery opinion is advised to the patient.

Question 3

I'm a bit worried and confused about something that happened recently. If a guy rubs his genitals and ejaculates in his underwear, and then there's rubbing against a woman's genitals with a very slightly wet surface, could that possibly lead to pregnancy, especially since it happened a week after her period ended?

Accepted Answer

There is almost negligeble risk of you becoming pregnant no need to worry

I'm 22 weeks pregnant and just got my anomaly scan done today. I'm a bit worried about whether everything looks normal. Is a fetal heart rate of 159 bpm okay or is it on the higher side?

Based on typical fetal development, at 22 weeks, normal parameters include a fetal heart rate between 110-160 bpm, so 159 bpm is within the normal range
