Is it safe to get the second dose of Covaxin while I'm on my period, or should I wait for a few days?

It's safe to take the second dose of Covaxin during your period, as there are no contraindications. You can go ahead with the vaccination without delay. However, if you're feeling unwell or have heavy symptoms, it's okay to wait a few days and take it when you're more comfortable.

I've been dealing with some itching in my vulva and tried using Candid B, but it hasn't really helped. It's not because of any white discharge, but I noticed some redness there too. I've also got this itching between the skin that connects my anus and vagina. What could be causing this and how can I get some relief?

That could be bacterial or fungal vaginitis,visit your Gynaecologist for appropriate management.

I'm a bit concerned because it's the 43rd day and I still haven't gotten my period. On the 40th day, I noticed some discomfort in my lower abdomen, and now there's this thick white milky discharge. Could these be signs of early pregnancy, or is it something else? I'm not sure what to make of this.
