I've been experiencing some dryness in my vaginal area and it's starting to itch really badly. On top of that, I've noticed some spots similar to pimples appearing too. I'm really not sure what's going on and could use some advice on what to do next. I live in Mulund but I didn't see Mumbai as an option. Can you help me figure this out?

You can use an over-the-counter antifungal medication like Clotrimazole (brand name Canesten) cream or suppositories. Apply the cream externally around the vagina or insert the suppository into the vagina according to the package instructions. Additionally, you can take an oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole (brand name Diflucan) 150mg as a single dose. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage and duration of treatment. It is also important to maintain good hygiene and wear cotton underwear to keep the area dry. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

View allI have two fibroids around 2.8 cm and 2.7 cm in size and really don't want to go through surgery. Is it possible to treat them completely with just medicines or are there other non-surgical options that might work for me
Yes, it's possible to treat uterine fibroids non-surgically, including through medication and other procedures. Your fibroids, being around 2.8 and 2.7 cm, fall within a size range where non-surgical options are often considered.

I've been having some issues with my periods being late by over 15 days sometimes, and lately, I've felt like vomiting, been really hungry, and kind of dizzy. My usual date was April 18, and I'm worried that I might be pregnant. How soon can I check to see if the result is positive or negative? Also, I accidentally drank pineapple Rasna juice before I knew you're not supposed to have pineapple when trying to conceive. Could this cause any problems like a miscarriage if Im actually pregnant? I'm really stressed about it and would appreciate some advice.

I'm a bit worried about this situation. I was with my girlfriend, and I fingered her after touching my penis which might have had some precum on it. Neither of us has ever had sex before, and I didnt actually have penetrative sex, it was just fingering. Could there be a risk of pregnancy from this?
no
