Yes, these are some symptoms, but there are possibilities that you might not have any symptoms for some days still you have STI. In some cases symptoms appear after window period just like in HIV infection. Some infection may remain silent and will make trouble to your partner/when you become weak on immunity level, they will start appearing. Women may experience the following symptoms also: Burning or itching in the vagina A discharge or odor from the vagina Pain around the pelvis Bleeding from the vagina that is not normal Pain deep inside during sex Sores, bumps or blisters in the vagina, anus, or mouth Burning and pain with urine or with bowel movements Having to go to the bathroom often warts/skin tags around genitals Some STI can give you cancer also like HPV infection. So never underestimate STI. whenever you have any of these symptoms, always consult with gynec or Sexologist. Get yourself tested If you have multiple partners always use precautions(condom/ female condom).

There are concerns that cloud seeding may be an expensive and temporary solution that does not address the root causes of air pollution, which include emissions from industries, vehicles, and agricultural burning. Environmentalists argue the focus should be on reducing emissions at the source.
Answer
does pcod affect sex life?

Hi there, Yes, PCOS is likely to affect your sex life, as it may lower your libido. This is probably attributed to mood swings, weight gain ( sometimes), irregular periods, absence of ovulation which can affect the way you perceive sex. You may not feel like engaging in an act because of the hormonal roller-coaster your body has been experiencing. Hence, you as Doc Frank mentioned, you need to have an open conversation with your husband, and explain things to him, accordingly. If this doesn't help, it's best to see a therapist who would help you in understanding your emotions better :) he/she can explain the same to your husband as well. I hope this helps:) take care.

My partner doesn't want to use Condom. We are not ready for kids and birth control makes me nauseous. I tried to make him understand but he is not ready to listen. How to convince him to use Condoms? @Sexologist_DrKalps

Are your periods regular? If yes, then download any ovulation monitoring app. It will guide you about unsafe period. Unsafe period means period in which possibility of pregnancy is more. It will be mostly from 10 -20 th day of cycles. Tell him to use condom or avoid sex during these days. If your partner have full control on ejaculation, then you can try for pull out method. He might not be ready to use, but you have to force him to use condom. Because if pregnancy happens, then you will have to abort the pregnancy. If you don't want to suffer, make him use it atleast during unsafe period

Hi, I'm Nandini. What are the long-term effects of hormonal contraceptives on menstrual health? @Drkarishma
1
Hormonal contraceptives affect all women differently. The main premise is to prevent pregnancy while regulating your hormones to suppress ovulation. Most women may not have any effects while on the pill and can continue to take them until and if she decided to have a child. And many women do get pregnant within a year of stopping the pill. For some women, after stopping the pill they may notice irregularities in their cycles, due to the suppressed regulation of natural hormones cycles. Periods may also be scanty. Women may also struggle to ovulate naturally, if they have been taking the pill for a sustained period of time. To know your long term goals of contraception it would be best to talk with your gynecologist before taking them.

Answer
Hi, I'm Harleen. How can I manage hair loss and other changes in physical appearance associated with hormonal fluctuations? @docmfrank

By talking with your gyenecologist. To understand if this is truly caused by hormonal fluctuations your doctor will have to identify which hormones are affecting them. You may have to make some lifestyle changes, which include some form of regular exercise and a more natural diet. A dermatologist may also be a great consult to help with skin and hair changes you may notice with hormonal fluctuations.

At its core, the connection between Ayurveda and Women health is rooted in the balance and harmony of the female body. The ancient Indian practice of Ayurveda recognizes that each woman has unique needs, and through mindful practices such as yoga, diet and lifestyle, it seeks to empower women to embrace their natural cycles.Ayurveda works to achieve balance by addressing the three doshas, or subtle energies that govern our bodies. These doshas are known as vata, pitta and kapha. Each dosha is associated with the elements of wind, fire, and water respectively and serve to regulate the physical body and the mind. When our doshas are in balance, we are healthy, vibrant and radiating peace.At a deeper level, Ayurveda looks at the physiological changes that happen in the body during our menstrual cycle. On a vata dosha day, for example, a woman may experience feelings of restlessness or anxiety. On a pitta day, she may have an increased appetite or feel irritable. And on a kapha day, she may be proneto fatigue or have difficulty concentrating. By acknowledging these nuances and adjusting her diet and lifestyle accordingly, a woman can learn to identify which foods will best nourish and restore her balance during the different phases of her cycle. Ayurveda Priests or holistic health practitioners are also available to guide women in developing a meaningful relationship with their menstrual cycle. Through such practices as yoga, meditation, massage, and breathwork, these professionals help women understand not only their body’s response to their monthly fluctuations, but also how to intuitively respond to them. Ultimately, Ayurveda provides a safe, holistic space for women to honour and celebrate their cycle as an important part of their emotional and physical wellbeing. By becoming more mindful and aware of the subtle changes that occur each month from one dosha to another, women are able to learn how to better nourish and care for their bodies .more
