I've been dealing with this persistent itching in my testicles for the past six months and it's becoming seriously uncomfortable. It's making it really hard to sleep at night and doing any kind of physical activity like running or jogging, which used to be so easy for me, is now a challenge. Do you think I should see a dermatologist for this?

It sounds like you might be dealing with a persistent skin or fungal issue, which can cause discomfort. I would recommend seeing a dermatologist for a proper evaluation and treatment to address the itching and discomfort, especially since it's affecting your daily activities and sleep.

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.

I've been having this horrible itching that started in my hands, feet, and vaginal area about a week ago. I took levocetirizine for four days, and though it seemed to help a bit, the itching came back around day three. Now its spread to my upper back and chest. It's really uncomfortable and bothering me a lot. Could you please guide me on what might be happening and what I can do to relieve this itching?

Since you have already taken levocetirizine without much relief, I recommend trying a different antihistamine such as Fexofenadine (Allegra) or Hydroxyzine (Avil). Additionally, you can apply a soothing lotion containing Calamine to the itchy areas for relief. If the itching persists, it is advisable to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
