Is there any medication or surgical option that can temporarily reduce or stop sexual thoughts I'm feeling really overwhelmed by them lately and need some relief
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
While medication and surgery can sometimes help manage unwanted sexual thoughts or urges, they are generally not the first line of treatment and may not be suitable for everyone. Medications like SSRIs (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors) and anti-androgens may be considered, but they often have side effects and are not a quick fix. Surgery, such as deep brain stimulation, is more invasive and carries risks. It's crucial to discuss these options with a qualified healthcare professional who can assess your specific situation and recommend the most appropriate course of action.

View allI'm a bit worried about the medication my GP prescribed. They've suggested I take Lonazep .5 every day for a month, plus Lonazep .25 in the morning for 10 days. I'm just concerned about whether this will cause any addiction or if I'll experience withdrawal symptoms when I stop. Does this sound okay to you?

I'm feeling really worried because I usually get panic attacks and my cardiologist had me go through ECG, echo, TMT, and X-ray, and everything came back normal. But yesterday, I had another panic attack, went to the GP, did an ECG, and was having shortness of breath. The GP said it's just an anxiety attack, but I'm still scared something might be wrong. Could you take a look at my ECG and let me know if everything is truly okay?
I don't have access to any attached files. However, based on your description and the tests you have already undergone, it seems like your symptoms are related to anxiety attacks. To manage your anxiety symptoms, you can try taking Alprazolam (Xanax) 0.5mg as needed when you feel a panic attack coming on. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or mindfulness meditation may also help in reducing the frequency and intensity of your panic attacks.

Can you explain if homeopathy can really cure OCD and how long it usually takes to see results? I've been on homeopathic medicine for 5 years without success, and now I'm on allopathic medicine, which seems to be helping more. Is sticking with allopathy a better option for managing OCD?
It's essential to consult a gynecologist for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, consider the following: Maintain good hygiene: Clean the area with mild soap and lukewarm water. Avoid scratching or popping the pimples, as this can lead to infection. Use a gentle, fragrance-free soap and avoid scented products. Apply a topical antibiotic cream or an antifungal cream, as advised by your doctor. Schedule an appointment with a gynecologist as soon as possible to determine the underlying cause.
