Ive had two abortions in the past and recently had a miscarriage in the fifth week of pregnancy. Im really worried because my rubella igg, cmv igg, and herpes igg levels aren't normal, although rubella igm, herpes igm, and cmv igm are fine. Can you explain what the difference is between igg and igm, and does having abnormal igg values mean I might never be able to get pregnant again?

IgG and IgM are types of antibodies produced by the immune system in response to infections. IgM is the first antibody produced when you are exposed to an infection, while IgG is produced later and usually indicates a past infection or immunity. Abnormal IgG levels for rubella, CMV, and herpes suggest a previous exposure or infection. This does not necessarily mean you will never become pregnant, but it may indicate a risk of complications during pregnancy. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I've been noticing a blue discharge on my underwear and I'm really not sure what's going on. This isn't the first time it's happened, but I haven't figured out what's causing it. I've tried using Candid ointment, but it hasn't made a difference. Can you help me understand what might be happening?

Blue vaginal discharge isn't typical and might indicate a reaction to products like dyed fabrics, infections, or rare conditions like chromhidrosis. Since Candid ointment hasnt helped, please consult a gynecologist for a thorough checkup and proper diagnosis. Avoid scented products or tight clothing in the meantime.
