I'm dealing with acne and after talking to a doctor, I began using Acnestar Clindamycin Nicotinamide. I've been on this for about a week now, but my acne seems to be getting worse instead of better. What should I do?

I've been noticing that the area around my scrotum is getting darker over the past four years. I've been using a razor to clean my pubic hair, and I'm wondering if I can use bleaching on my private parts to lighten the skin there. Could hydroquinone help make my genitals lighter?

Hey, I've got these scars on my buttocks from boils that were treated with mupirocin ointment, but the scars just won't go away. Do you have any advice on how I can get rid of them?

To help reduce scars from boils on your buttocks, you can try using a silicone gel or vitamin E oil, which promotes healing. Gently massage the area and be patient, as scar healing takes time. If the scars persist, consult a dermatologist for further treatment options.

I'm 18 and just lost my virginity a couple of days ago. My cycle is usually around 30 to 31 days, and we had sex on the 19th day of it. We used a condom correctly, but now I'm feeling nauseous and experiencing pain in my lower abdomen and breasts. I'm really worried about the possibility of being pregnant. Can you tell me how I can make sure I'm not pregnant and if these symptoms are typical after having sex?

The symptoms you are experiencing could be related to various factors, including hormonal changes or anxiety. To ensure you do not get pregnant, you can consider taking an emergency contraceptive pill such as "Plan B" or "Ella". These pills are most effective when taken within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse. Additionally, you may want to consider regular contraception methods such as birth control pills, patches, or intrauterine devices (IUDs) for future protection. Regarding your symptoms, nausea and breast tenderness can sometimes occur due to hormonal changes after sex, but they can also be caused by other factors. If these symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and guidance.
