I've been dealing with severe itching around my penny line and the lips of my vagina for a while now. I've already been treated for infections like fungal and bacterial, and all my urine and swab tests came back clear, but the itching just won't go away. There's no sign of lesions, just some redness after I scratch. When I do itch, it feels like I've got tons of little cuts and burns until I put some oil or cold water on it. Any idea what's going on?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a condition called vulvar dermatitis, which can cause itching, redness, and irritation without visible lesions. Since infections have been ruled out, it could be due to an allergic reaction, skin sensitivity, or even friction. I recommend following up with a dermatologist or gynecologist for a more thorough examination and to explore treatment options such as soothing creams or anti-inflammatory medications.

So, I'm a little confused and worried because I did a pregnancy test and it showed a weak positive result. What does that actually mean? Why would it show up as weak positive instead of a clear result? Could there be something wrong, or is it just too early to tell? Would love some clarity on this.

Weak positive pregnancy test results typically indicate a low level of hCG hormone in the urine, which may be due to early pregnancy or a diluted urine sample. It is recommended to repeat the test with a concentrated urine sample in the morning for more accurate results. If you are indeed pregnant, please start taking folic acid supplements and consult with your obstetrician for further guidance on prenatal care.

I'm really concerned about this ongoing heavy bleeding I've been experiencing for the past three weeks. It's been diagnosed as uterine polyps around 2cm, and the bleeding isn't stopping even with taking Pause and Sylate. Is there any way to control the bleeding without having to remove the polyps?

Given the heavy bleeding and ineffectiveness of Pause and Sylate, consider consulting your gynecologist

My wife has an 18x17 mm submucous fibroid in the fundus region of her uterus, and it's indenting the endometrium. She's had four miscarriages in a row, all with bleeding between 6 to 12 weeks. Could this fibroid be causing the miscarriages? Would she need surgery to remove it?

A submucous fibroid can cause miscarriages and surgery like hysteroscopic myomectomy may be needed to improve pregnancy chances.
