View allI've been having this white, thick vaginal discharge, and sometimes it looks like cottage cheese. It's been really itchy, and my clitoris hurts a lot. I've been dealing with this for about five months now. Even though I've taken medication, nothing seems to work. What could be causing this, and how can I actually get rid of it?

I'm currently 132 weeks pregnant, and I've noticed that my fasting sugar levels have gone up to 110, while they used to be around 75 before I got pregnant. Should I be worried about gestational diabetes? And what steps can I take to manage it? I'm also concerned about whether this could harm my baby.
110 mgdL fasting blood sugar is elevated but not necessarily a sign of gestational diabetes on its own. Confirmatory testing will help determine your next steps.

I'm a bit concerned because my friend has told me there's been no physical relationship with his wife, but she claims they have and even mentioned being pregnant once. The pregnancy test was negative, though. Is there any kind of test that can determine a woman's virginity? If so, could you explain how that test works? I'm looking for some guidance on this, as it's a confusing situation for him.
yes you can take and maintain healthy lifestyle
