My wife is struggling with vaginal dryness, and it's becoming a bit of an issue for us when it comes to our intimacy. Could you recommend a good vaginal lubricant that we can pick up at the local pharmacy?

This is often the result of not enough foreplay. Insufficient lubrication is also commonly caused by a drop in estrogen levels after menopause, after childbirth or during breast-feeding. Certain medications are known to inhibit desire or arousal, which can decrease lubrication and make sex painful. These include antidepressants, high blood pressure medications, sedatives, antihistamines and certain birth control pills. This includes injury or irritation from an accident, pelvic surgery, female circumcision or a cut made during childbirth to enlarge the birth canal (episiotomy). An infection in your genital area or urinary tract can cause painful intercourse. Eczema or other skin problems in your genital area also can be the problem...Involuntary spasms of the muscles of the vaginal wall (vaginismus) can make attempts at penetration...consult gynecologist they will help you further

I'm really confused right now. My pregnancy test came back negative after doing IUI, but I still haven't gotten my period. Should I stop taking progesterone, or is there something else I should consider?

If your pregnancy test is negative after IUI and your periods have not started, it is safe to stop taking progesterone. Progesterone is usually prescribed to support early pregnancy, so if you are not pregnant, there is no need to continue taking it.

I'm a virgin, but I have a boyfriend, and we've been doing some other stuff together. I've noticed that when I get really excited by his touch or kiss, a whitish milky fluid that can sometimes be transparent comes out of my vagina. It also happens wh...

The milky fluid you are describing could be normal vaginal discharge, which can vary in consistency and color throughout your menstrual cycle. However, if you are experiencing weakness, pain in your legs, and itching, it may be a sign of an underlying infection. I recommend you to consult a doctor for further evaluation and possible treatment.

I'm a bit worried because I've missed my period and took a testit says I'm pregnant. My husband and I aren't ready for a baby right now since we have other things we need to focus on. What are our options for safely ending the pregnancy?
