My CD4 count is 150 and I have a third-degree uterus prolapse. The local gynecologist mentioned surgery might be an option if my CD4 reaches 350. What can I do to improve my CD4 count quickly or are there other treatment options for the prolapse in my current condition

A CD4 count of 150 indicates a severely weakened immune system due to HIV, and a third-degree uterine prolapse requires management. The most effective way to improve your CD4 count is through consistent adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) for HIV, which can increase your CD4 count by 100-150 cells/mm3 within the first year. For the prolapse, while surgery is an option, non-surgical approaches like pelvic floor exercises, pessary use, or physical therapy may provide relief and improve your condition

I've been having this white, thick vaginal discharge, and sometimes it looks like cottage cheese. It's been really itchy, and my clitoris hurts a lot. I've been dealing with this for about five months now. Even though I've taken medication, nothing seems to work. What could be causing this, and how can I actually get rid of it?

My wife is 9 months pregnant and her C-section is scheduled for this week, but she suddenly caught a cold and cough because of the rainy season. Can you recommend a safe cough syrup for the last trimester that won't harm the baby? Also, if her cough doesn't clear up before the surgery, could it delay the delivery date?
For cold in 9-month pregnant woman, use syrup like Benadryl or Grilinctus BM after OB consult—mild cold won't usually delay C-section unless fever or breathing issues occur.
