I'm experiencing really low menstrual bleeding this month, not stopping completely though. It seems to only happen when I'm super active or during urination. I'm worried about what could be causing this. Any ideas?

Its possible that your low menstrual flow could be due to hormonal fluctuations, stress, or changes in your activity levels. It may also be linked to your recent health history, including any underlying conditions. If this continues or worsens, it's important to consult a doctor for a thorough evaluation.

My wife is struggling with vaginal dryness, and it's becoming a bit of an issue for us when it comes to our intimacy. Could you recommend a good vaginal lubricant that we can pick up at the local pharmacy?

This is often the result of not enough foreplay. Insufficient lubrication is also commonly caused by a drop in estrogen levels after menopause, after childbirth or during breast-feeding. Certain medications are known to inhibit desire or arousal, which can decrease lubrication and make sex painful. These include antidepressants, high blood pressure medications, sedatives, antihistamines and certain birth control pills. This includes injury or irritation from an accident, pelvic surgery, female circumcision or a cut made during childbirth to enlarge the birth canal (episiotomy). An infection in your genital area or urinary tract can cause painful intercourse. Eczema or other skin problems in your genital area also can be the problem...Involuntary spasms of the muscles of the vaginal wall (vaginismus) can make attempts at penetration...consult gynecologist they will help you further

I'm 19 and about two months ago, I took more than six of those emergency contraceptive pills. I haven't had my period since then, and I've been dealing with some lower abdomen pain, skin allergies, headaches, hair fall, and I've noticed I've gained some weight. Can you help me figure out what's going on with my health? I'm really worried.

male sexual disorders, such as erectile dysfunction, you can consult either a urologist or an andrologist. Both specialists can help, but there's a subtle difference: *Urologist* 1. *Focus*: Urologists primarily focus on the urinary tract and male reproductive system, including kidneys, bladder, prostate, and penis. 2. *Expertise*: They diagnose and treat conditions like erectile dysfunction, prostate issues, kidney stones, and urinary tract infections. 3. *Treatment options*: Urologists often provide medical and surgical treatments, including medications, injections, and surgeries. *Andrologist* 1. *Focus*: Andrologists specialize in male reproductive health, focusing on hormonal and reproductive issues. 2. *Expertise*: They diagnose and treat conditions like low testosterone, infertility, erectile dysfunction, and hypogonadism. 3. *Treatment options*: Andrologists often provide hormonal therapies, fertility treatments, and lifestyle counseling.

I've noticed that the skin on the right side between my vagina and anus feels hard, almost like there's a lump under the skin. It's quite painful, and I'm really concerned. I'm wondering if this could be something harmful?

This could be due to a condition called a Bartholin's cyst or abscess. I recommend using sitz baths to help reduce the pain and swelling. You can also take over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen. However, if the pain persists or worsens, it is important to see a doctor for further evaluation and treatment. In some cases, antibiotics or drainage of the cyst may be necessary.
