I'm a bit worried because I had unprotected sex for the first time on Thursday, May 18th, and it was pretty deep. I think my period started the next day or maybe Saturday, and it stopped by Wednesday. It was really heavy for a couple of days and then kind of light. Is there a chance I could be pregnant?

Based on the information you provided, it is possible that you could be pregnant since unprotected sex occurred during your fertile window. To confirm pregnancy, you can take a pregnancy test. If you are concerned about potential pregnancy, you can consider taking an emergency contraceptive pill like Plan B One-Step within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse to reduce the risk of pregnancy.

View allI've always had dry lips, even though I try to stay hydrated. My skin keeps peeling off, and now my lips have turned dark. I'm really looking for a way to fix this permanently. What can I do?
It sounds like you may be experiencing chronic dryness and peeling of your lips. To help improve the condition of your lips, I recommend using a lip balm containing ingredients like beeswax, shea butter, and vitamin E. You can try using Burt's Bees Lip Balm regularly throughout the day to keep your lips moisturized. Additionally, you can apply a thin layer of Aquaphor Healing Ointment before bedtime to help repair and hydrate your lips overnight. Remember to drink plenty of water throughout the day to maintain hydration from within.

I've been dealing with these really itchy scalp bumps for the past couple of months, and it's getting pretty unbearable. Sometimes, my scalp also flakes off in these dry little crumbs. It all started when I switched from a keto diet to a regular diet and noticed it got really hot and humid around the same time. I've tried everythingdandruff shampoos, hemp oil, apple cider vinegar rinses, tea tree oil, and organic shampoos. I've even played around with washing my hair more and less often, but nothing seems to work. What could be causing this, and what else can I do to make it stop?
You may be experiencing a condition called seborrheic dermatitis, which is a common skin condition that mainly affects your scalp. The symptoms you described, such as itchy bumps, flaking skin, and bleedingscabbing from scratching, are characteristic of seborrheic dermatitis. The change in diet and weather conditions may have triggered or worsened the condition. I recommend using an anti-fungal shampoo containing ketoconazole, such as Nizoral. You can use it 2-3 times a week for a few weeks to help control the itching and flaking. Additionally, a corticosteroid lotion or foam, like Clobex, can be applied to the affected areas to reduce inflammation and itching. It is important to follow the instructions provided with these medications and consult with a healthcare provider if the symptoms persist or worsen.
