Lately, I've been noticing some light bleeding about 10 days before my period is supposed to start. This has never happened to me before, and I'm starting to get a bit worried. Could there be something unusual going on with my cycle, or is this pretty common? Would love to hear your thoughts.

I'm dealing with a lot of vaginal itching and burning right now, and I'm using itch guard which only seems to help for a short while. Could you please tell me what might be causing this and if there's something more effective I could try?

I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole (Canesten) twice a day for 1-2 weeks. Additionally, you can take oral antihistamines like Cetirizine (Zyrtec) once daily to help with the itching. Make sure to maintain good hygiene and avoid using scented products in the genital area. If the symptoms persist, please consult a gynecologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm a bit concerned because every month, right before my periods, I experience this pain in my clitoris when I pee. It only lasts for about a minute but it's quite uncomfortable, and theres sometimes itching too. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?

I'm usually on a 30-day cycle and have PCOD. I've been going through fertility treatment and started taking Duphaston from the 16th day. My period was due on the 5th, and now it's the 12th, but I still haven't gotten it. I took a pregnancy test and it came out negative. Should I stop taking Duphaston, or is there a chance I'll get my period while still on it?

Best would be to consult gynaecologist who is treating. Otherwise wait for one more week for periods then repeat pregnancy test with morning sample urine, if negative then stop Duphaston.
