I'm really worried because my left vaginal lip has been swollen for 23 days now, and it's really hard and painful. I can barely move, and now I've started to get a slight fever, feel dizzy, and even other parts of my body are aching. I'm taking mox500, crocin, and combiflame, and I've also applied sophramycin cream and candid powder twice. But nothing seems to be working. What should I do? Please help.

I'm curious if it's normal for someone to feel more sexual or have a stronger urge to watch porn during their period. My sister experiences this, and I'm wondering if there's something behind it hormonally or psychologically. Is this something that you've come across before?

It's not uncommon for some people to experience heightened sexual urges during their periods due to hormonal changes. However, it's important to ensure that she feels comfortable with her desires and makes choices that align with her values and well-being.
