I'm newly married and have been experiencing a lot of cuts near my vagina during sex. It's really painful and I'm not sure what to do to help these wounds heal. Can you give me some advice on how to treat them?

As a newly married individual experiencing painful cuts near the vagina during sex, prioritize your comfort and health by trying the following: apply a topical antibiotic ointment and cover with a breathable dressing to promote healing; take warm baths with baking soda or colloidal oatmeal to soothe the area; use a lubricant during sex to reduce friction; practice gentle and gradual intimacy; and consider consulting a gynecologist for personalized advice and treatment

View allI'm trying to figure out the right dosage to delay my periods. They're supposed to start on the 22nd, but I'd like to push them back by four days. A friend mentioned it's possible, but I'm hearing mixed advice about how many pills to takesome say two a day, others say just one. Could you please help clarify what's actually needed?
To delay your periods, you can take Norethisterone. Make sure to consult with your doctor before starting any medication.

I'm 20 and I've been taking Obimet SR 500 once a day for my PCOS. My period came on November 13th. Then on December 2nd, I got intimate, although we didn't have sex. I missed my period in December and also skipped some doses of my Obimet SR. I took a pregnancy test on December 24th and it was negative. Later that day, I got intimate again and took an emergency contraceptive pill. I started bleeding on January 1st and it was like a full period that lasted 7 days. I've been back on Obimet SR since January 8th. I've done two more pregnancy tests since then and both were negative. I'm not experiencing any breast pain or other PMS symptoms now. What should I do? Is there a chance I'm pregnant, and if I am, what's the safest way to manage an unwanted pregnancy?
Consult your gynecologist immediately for a thorough evaluation and guidance, as your symptoms and test results are inconclusive; despite negative pregnancy tests, your missed period, bleeding patterns, and lack of PMS symptoms are concerning; your doctor may order a more sensitive pregnancy test, ultrasound, or other diagnostic tests to confirm or rule out pregnancy; if pregnant, your doctor will discuss safe and legal options, including termination, with you.

I'm noticing this thin white layer around my vagina that sometimes curdles up into a creamy texture. It's been itchy at certain times during the day, specifically on one of the labia minora where it looks like there's some extra skin development with tiny eruptions, and there's white stuff inside. There's no burning sensation, bad smell, or discharge though. It's been like this for 3 days with no changes. What could this be? Should I be worried?
Your symptoms, including a thin white layer around the vagina, curdling into a creamy texture, itching on the labia minora, and tiny eruptions with white contents, suggest a vaginal yeast infection (candidiasis), but the absence of a foul odor and discharge makes it less clear-cut; consult a gynecologist for a definitive diagnosis and treatment, as other conditions like vulvar dermatitis could also be possible causes.
