I've been having irregular periods every month, and they never seem to come on the same date. Sometimes they're 5 days late, other times 9 days late. It's becoming a regular thing, and I'm starting to worry. Do you have any advice or suggestions on what might be causing this?

I'm really worried because I noticed these lumps near my vagina, like on both sides, and it's freaking me out. I had a boil about two weeks ago and now there are four lumps. Do you think this could be an infection that's making more lumps pop up? I'm scared and really need some advice on what I should do.

Despite regular brushing and tongue scraping, the white deposit on your tongue can be persistent. Here are some additional remedies and products you can try: *Remedies* 1. *Saltwater rinse*: Mix 1 teaspoon of salt with 8 ounces of warm water. Swish the solution around your mouth, focusing on the tongue, and spit it out. Repeat this process 2-3 times a day. 2. *Hydrogen peroxide mouthwash*: Dilute hydrogen peroxide with water (1 part hydrogen peroxide to 2 parts water). Swish the solution around your mouth for 30 seconds to 1 minute, then spit it out. However, use this remedy with caution, as excessive use can damage tooth enamel. 3. *Baking soda*: Sprinkle a small amount of baking soda on your tongue and gently scrub it with your toothbrush. Rinse with warm water. 4. *Aloe vera*: Apply aloe vera gel to your tongue using a cotton swab. Aloe vera has anti-inflammatory properties that may help reduce tongue inflammation. *Products* 1. *Tongue brushes*: Instead of a tongue scraper, try using a tongue brush. These brushes have soft bristles that gently remove bacteria and debris from the tongue surface. 2. *Antibacterial mouthwashes*: Look for mouthwashes containing ingredients like chlorhexidine, which can help reduce bacteria and plaque on the tongue. 3. *Tongue sprays*: There are various tongue sprays available that contain ingredients like essential oils, which can help freshen breath and reduce bacteria on the tongue. *Additional Tips* 1. *Stay hydrated*: Drink plenty of water throughout the day to keep your mouth moist and wash away bacteria. 2. *Eat a balanced diet*: A healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains can help support your oral health. 3. *Avoid tobacco and smoking*: Tobacco and smoking can contribute to oral health issues, including tongue coating. 4. *Visit your dentist regularly*: Regular dental check-ups can help identify any underlying oral health issues that may be contributing to the white deposit on your tongue.

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.

My mom's ultrasound report shows multiple fibroids in her uterus. Can these be treated with medication or is surgery the only option? Really confused about what to do next and worried about her health

Uterine fibroids can often be managed with medication, especially if symptoms are mild and the fibroids are not causing significant problems. Surgery is also an option, particularly if symptoms are severe or if medication isn't effective. The best approach depends on your mom's individual circumstances, including the size and location of the fibroids, her symptoms, and her desire for future pregnancies
