I'm really worried because I've been experiencing reduced sexual arousal for about 34 months now. Also, I've been taking medication for PCOD for the past 6 months, and my periods never come on their own anymoreI have to rely on that medication. Lately, I've also been dealing with vaginal dryness during intercourse, along with severe hair loss and persistent weakness. What could be causing all these issues?

It sounds like youre experiencing a combination of symptoms, including reduced sexual arousal, vaginal dryness, hair loss, and weakness, which could be related to your PCOD and the medications you're taking. Hormonal imbalances in PCOD can affect sexual function and cause dryness. It's important to discuss these symptoms with your doctor, who may adjust your treatment plan or explore additional solutions to manage these issues.

I've been experiencing some worrying symptoms and was hoping to get your advice. I took an ipill for the first time this past Sunday, and now I'm noticing rashes on my stomach and arms that are really itchy. Plus, my stomach feels pretty bloated. I've also been on some digestive medicine since last Friday. Could these things be related, or should I be worried about something else going on?
