Women's Health - December 2007

I have recurrent yeast infections (in that vicious cycle of BV to Flagyl to yeast to treatment to BV) for the past 3 months. The most successful treatment I've had so far was 2 doses of Monistat 3 back to back (for a total of 6 days of treatment). However, that caused the BV pretty bad, so I went for a more gentle Monistat 7 (which my doctor calls the gold standard) this past time around. NOTHING. It got worse! So, I began to suspect that I'm just all Monistated out and need something else. I am finishing my current round of diflucan, which did not work in the past and while it has helped this time around, has not cured the issue. The last time I went to the doctor she gave up and just gave me an alt. medicine referral. I have been on acidophilius for the past 2 months. It does nothing. I have to start Flagyl AGAIN for BV while I finish the diflucan, but I want to try one of the non-Monistat OTCs in addition. Which one is the best? I would rather have it work with no BV than be fast.

I have a bit of a concern ..
Me & my boyfriend had sexual intercourse November 16th 07 .. After couple days after being intimate i felt really sick ..When i asked my partner if he had pulled out he told me that he didnt .. & another thing.. I was supposed to get my period on the 20th of November buh i noticed that i missed it for that month .. It turns out that my period was almost 2 weeks late. Then on Saturday December 1st I had some bleeding but it wasnt like a normal period .. The bleeding was light & only lasted for 2 days [saturday&sunday].. I went to the dotors to get a blood test done last week buh was negative .. This doesnt really make sense cuz i still feel tired all the time .. my brests are very sore & get cramps on the left side of my body.. Someone please tell me what they think because i dont have a clue or know how to make sense of this situation .. Could i really be pregnant?

I am on my 1st month of birth control and was supposed to start my period yesterday (also the day i began taking the inactive pills). And i have a bit of spotting when i wipe only, but its not a period.

I am scared it is pregnancy bleeding and was just wondering if this is typical of birth control to be causing light periods. or if ya think i may be pregnant?

I often get ingrown hairs, ya know...down there. I get them no matter if I shave or not. Currently I havent shaved in a couple of weeks and have 3 or 4.( I know that they are ingrown hairs because I have visited a doctor many times.)I also know that heat helps them go away....but baths are not my thing. Any other ideas on how to heal them? Would icy hot work?Help...its annoying.

I have to pay 5% deductibles every time I'm going to the doctor.
They charged my insurance $29 for a prego test and the insurance now wants me to pay part of it.
I never asked them to take this test.

This is *really* embarrassing to actually put online, but I'm desperate. For the past few days, I've been having spasms "down there". It's not in or around my vagina, it's that blank space right behind it but before my bum.
I'll feel really quick muscle spasms for about 5 seconds and then it goes away, but this happens at least three times in the span of one minute. If I engage in a Kegel, it won't happen, but who wants to do that all daggone day? lol. It's not painful, just incredibly annoying.
Just a bit of background: I'm not pregnant, I've never had children, I've had my period for the month and it was normal. I have a gyno appointment scheduled for next week already.
It could just be stress-related and go away on its own (after all, it is the Holiday season)....but I was just wondering if any of you had experienced this and what you did to make it stop.
Thank you!
:-D

dogs ears being the fatty deposits at the end of the suture lines where the both sides of the missmatched skin meet up, a downfall of a tummy tuck, i am 28 and had mine done in prague and they were present when i went to get my stitches removed 2 weeks later, and the doctor explained to me after six months if they were still there it is a case of leaving and accepting, or extension of the suture line with lipo.
I decided to reasearch this and found that sometimes its bad judjement of the surgeon of where to start and end the incision and the persons skin type, i can honestly say that my tummy is much better that what it was as i combined it with lipo of the waist and tummy, but now i wished i had lipo on my hips and if i go back for correction i will have to get this done as i feel so down about it, the point to me was being able to wear low cut jeans and skimpy underwear not control knickers of which i am still wearing to flatten my hips out, i know i can get it corrected though.
