Hey, I've been dealing with a recurring vaginal yeast infection. I was diagnosed with vaginitis three months back and the doctor prescribed me FAS 3 kit for one day, Cansoft CL for three nights, and I'm still using VWash. I felt better after two weeks, but the problem didn't completely go away. I took another dose of FAS 3 kit and saw my gynecologist a month later. She advised me to drink plenty of fluids and maintain good hygiene. But I've noticed the infection flares up again after my periods. Is it okay to take another dose of fluconazole? How can I get rid of this issue for good? I'm really concerned about this.

ears could be an allergic reaction to the iodine or nickel used during the plasma donation process. *Possible Causes* 1. *Iodine allergy*: Iodine is commonly used to clean the skin before needle insertion. An allergic reaction to iodine can cause a rash, itching, and bumps. 2. *Nickel allergy*: Nickel is sometimes used in medical equipment, and an allergy to nickel can cause contact dermatitis, leading to a rash, itching, and bumps. *Next Steps* Considering you don't have health insurance, here are some steps you can take: 1. *Self-care*: Apply cool compresses to the affected area to reduce itching and inflammation. You can also try over-the-counter (OTC) hydrocortisone cream or calamine lotion to help soothe the skin. 2. *Monitor symptoms*: Keep an eye on the rash and bumps. If they worsen, spread, or become severely itchy, seek medical attention. 3. *Contact the plasma donation center*: Reach out to the plasma donation center where you donated and inform them about the reaction. They may be able to provide guidance or offer to cover medical expenses related to the reaction. *When to Seek Medical Attention* If you experience any of the following, seek medical attention: 1. *Severe symptoms*: If the rash, itching, or bumps become severe, or if you experience difficulty breathing, rapid heartbeat, or dizziness. 2. *Infection signs*: If you notice signs of infection, such as increased redness, swelling, warmth, or pus. 3. *Worsening symptoms*: If your symptoms worsen or don't improve with self-care.

I have three fibroids in my uterus and the largest one is 6cm. Is there any way to treat them naturally or is surgery the only option? I'm really worried about what to do next

While you can't cure fibroids on your own, several treatment options are available, and surgery is not always the first or only choice. For a 6cm fibroid, your doctor might recommend a myomectomy (surgical removal of the fibroids) or other procedures like uterine artery embolization, depending on your symptoms and overall health. Additionally, non-surgical options like hormonal treatments or watchful waiting might be considered

I had a medical abortion a few days ago. I took mifepristone and misoprostol as instructed, but I haven't had any stomach cramps and only noticed slight bleeding for 45 hours. I've been feeling nauseous and even vomited a couple of times, but not right after taking the tabletit was about 3 hours later. The kit I used had 1 mifepristone, which I took two days before, and 4 misoprostol tablets that I took two each with a 78-hour gap in between. I'm really worriedis the abortion successful? If it isn't, what should I do? Is it okay to repeat the process?

To confirm if the abortion was successful, you should follow up with a healthcare provider for an ultrasound examination. If the abortion was not successful, your healthcare provider may recommend a surgical procedure to complete the abortion. It is not safe to repeat the medical abortion process without consulting a healthcare provider. It is important to seek medical advice to ensure your safety and well-being.
