I'm worried about a yeast infection after having a medical abortion last month. I took three pills of azithromycin a few days later to prevent infections, but now I've got this white discharge, itching, and some pain when I pee. Plus, there are a couple of small pimples inside my vagina. I also had rashes on my breasts and arms which went away after taking Citrizine. Is it usual to get a yeast infection after this kind of procedure, or could it be something else?

Yeast infections can occur after a medical abortion due to changes in hormone levels and the body's immune response. The symptoms you are experiencing, such as white discharge, itching, and pain while urinating, are common signs of a yeast infection. The rash on your breasts and arms may also be related to the infection. To treat the yeast infection, you can use an antifungal medication such as Fluconazole. The usual dosage is a single 150mg dose. Additionally, practicing good hygiene, wearing loose-fitting clothing, and avoiding irritants can help prevent further infections. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

My mom is 47 and went through menopause at 41. Now, her ultrasound shows she has these nabothian cysts that are about 6mm, and her platelet count has dropped to 47,000, which seems really low. Plus, her ESR count is high. I'm really worried about what this all means for her health. What kind of problems could she be facing, and what treatments should we be considering?

I'm really curious if Trazer F Forte is effective in managing PCOD. I've noticed there are two types - Trazer F Forte 6s and Trazer F Forte 10s. Can someone explain what the difference is between these two? Also, are there any alternative treatments I should consider?

Trazer F Forte is a prescription medication containing a combination of folic acid, vitamin B12, and iron, which can help alleviate symptoms associated with PCOD, such as iron deficiency anemia and homocysteine imbalance; the difference between Trazer F Forte 6s and 10s lies in the packaging quantity, with 6s containing 6 tablets and 10s containing 10 tablets
