My wife is currently 8 weeks pregnant, and during her last ultrasound, they couldn't detect any cardiac activity. The final report mentioned something about a likely missed abortion. Our gynecologist wants us to continue with the medication since there haven't been any miscarriage symptoms yet. We're pretty nervous about this and are anxiously waiting for the next ultrasound in 10 days. Could you shed some light on what to possibly expect? Is there still a chance for positive news? We're just trying to understand all of this.

I've noticed my vagina is red and itchy on the outside of the lips, and the skin is peeling off. It's white in some areas. I've been putting powder and Vaseline on it for the past two days, but the itchiness hasnt gone away. What can I do to make it better?

For a red, itchy, and flaky vaginal area, especially on the outer lips, consider using an over-the-counter (OTC) anti-fungal or anti-itch cream like clotrimazole or hydrocortisone, and avoid using powders and vaseline as they can exacerbate the issue; also, practice good hygiene, wear breathable clothing, and consult a gynecologist if the symptoms persist or worsen.
