I started my period on January 22 and was treated for endometriosis. My doctor advised me to take Meprate 10mg starting February 7, so I did, taking one tablet daily. I finished the course on February 16, which was the 8th day, but I haven't gotten my period yet. Should I wait longer, or could there be an issue?

I've had a red pimple-like bump inside my vagina for about 10 days and it's gotten really painful. Could this just be a pimple or something more serious like a cyst or tumor? I'm really worried about needing surgery. What could be causing this and is there anything I can do to treat it at home? The pain is making me anxious and I'd appreciate some guidance on what to do next.

The most common reason for vaginal pimples is a clogged pore. The skin on your vulva contains pores that can become clogged with bacteria, oil, sweat and dead skin. This triggers an immune response, which creates a pimple. Contact dermatitis: A skin reaction to something that touches your vulva

I'm 34 weeks pregnant and getting really excited to meet my baby. Ive been thinking a lot about whether it's a boy or a girl, and while Im happy either way, I'm curious about something I heard. Is it true that you can predict a babys gender based on their heart rate?

As a doctor, I can reassure you that there is no scientific evidence to support the idea that a baby's heart rate can predict its gender. While some myths suggest a higher heart rate indicates a girl and a lower one a boy, it's just thatmyths. The heart rate varies for many reasons and isn't linked to gender. Just focus on enjoying your pregnancy, and your baby's health is what matters most!

I'm really worried about this personal issue I'm experiencing with my girlfriend. After I finger her, there's a bad smell coming from her vagina and on my hand. She doesn't have any vaginal infections or itching, but this has been happening for the last three months. It wasn't like this before, so I'm not sure what's going on and it's starting to affect our relationship. Can you help me figure out what might be causing this and what we can do about it?

It could be due to bacterial vaginosis. Bacterial vaginosis is a common condition where there is an overgrowth of harmful bacteria in the vagina, leading to a fishy odor. I recommend your girlfriend to use Metronidazole gel 0.75% applied intravaginally once daily for 5 days. This will help to restore the normal balance of bacteria in the vagina and alleviate the bad smell. Additionally, practicing good hygiene, such as washing hands before and after sexual activity, can also help prevent the recurrence of this issue.
