I'm really worried because I've been experiencing reduced sexual arousal for about 34 months now. Also, I've been taking medication for PCOD for the past 6 months, and my periods never come on their own anymoreI have to rely on that medication. Lately, I've also been dealing with vaginal dryness during intercourse, along with severe hair loss and persistent weakness. What could be causing all these issues?

It sounds like youre experiencing a combination of symptoms, including reduced sexual arousal, vaginal dryness, hair loss, and weakness, which could be related to your PCOD and the medications you're taking. Hormonal imbalances in PCOD can affect sexual function and cause dryness. It's important to discuss these symptoms with your doctor, who may adjust your treatment plan or explore additional solutions to manage these issues.

I'm just a bit worried here. My girlfriend and I had unprotected sex last night, and we read somewhere that eating papaya can help prevent pregnancy. She had some about 20 hours after we did it. Is there any truth to this? Can papaya actually help in preventing pregnancy?

I'm really concerned because post-pregnancy, I'm dealing with a fungal infection and blood in my stool. My doctor prescribed me to look at cream and itaspor for the fungal issue and proctosedyl for the piles. I'm also taking iron and calcium tablets. I'm confused and worried because someone mentioned that I shouldn't use proctosedyl while having a fungal infection. Can I use them both at the same time, or should I be avoiding it?

There is no such indication,better visit Dermatologist and follow their advice
