Can we eat ice cream during periods?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Having a lot of dairy products is not the best idea, as it can cause cramping. Dairy products like milk, cheese, and ice cream contain arachidonic acid (an omega-6 fatty acid), which can increase inflammation and can intensify your period pain.

View allI'm really worried because I'm getting married in November, and my fianc doesn't know I'm not a virgin. I had sex when I was 18, and now I'm 21. I've done a lot of fingering too. When I first had sex, it didn't hurt, and there wasn't any blood. I've heard about alum for tightening, and I want to know if it could help. Can you give me any advice on becoming a virgin again or making it seem like I am?
Unfortunately, once you have had sex and lost your virginity, there is no way to get your virginity back

I'm dealing with a lot of vaginal itching and burning right now, and I'm using itch guard which only seems to help for a short while. Could you please tell me what might be causing this and if there's something more effective I could try?
I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole (Canesten) twice a day for 1-2 weeks. Additionally, you can take oral antihistamines like Cetirizine (Zyrtec) once daily to help with the itching. Make sure to maintain good hygiene and avoid using scented products in the genital area. If the symptoms persist, please consult a gynecologist for further evaluation and management.
