I've been noticing a blue discharge on my underwear and I'm really not sure what's going on. This isn't the first time it's happened, but I haven't figured out what's causing it. I've tried using Candid ointment, but it hasn't made a difference. Can you help me understand what might be happening?

Blue vaginal discharge isn't typical and might indicate a reaction to products like dyed fabrics, infections, or rare conditions like chromhidrosis. Since Candid ointment hasnt helped, please consult a gynecologist for a thorough checkup and proper diagnosis. Avoid scented products or tight clothing in the meantime.

I took an ipill on the 20th after having unprotected sex on the 19th and 20th. Now on the 27th, I'm experiencing vaginal bleeding. Is this normal?

Its common to experience vaginal bleeding after taking the i-pill, as it can affect your hormonal balance. This bleeding is usually a side effect and should stop within a few days. However, if it persists or you have concerns, its best to consult your doctor for further guidance.
