I'm experiencing a really unbearable itch right at the entrance of my vagina, and there's this white, curd-like discharge coming from it. It also gets swollen if I scratch it. This just started yesterday, but it's already the second time this year that it's happened. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of a vaginal yeast infection, which can cause itching, swelling, and a white, curd-like discharge. I recommend seeing a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and treatment, which may include antifungal medication. In the meantime, try to keep the area clean and dry to help ease the discomfort.

Are uterine fibroids a form of fibrosis?

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

I'm a little confused about my recent double marker test results from last week. The beta hCG is at 188.80 ngmL and PAPP-A is at 6.76 mIUmL. I'm having twins, so I'm wondering if these numbers are in the normal range or if there's something I should be concerned about. Could you help me understand what these results mean?
