Question 8

what is the quickest way to dry up excess vaginal discharge? menopausal. no odour. watery. doctors office lost my specimen and of course theyre closed this weekend. ?

Accepted Answer

: There is no way to answer without knowing the cause of the increased discharge, or at least more information to judge the possibilities. However, if you're not having pain, fever or other symptoms, there's probably no hurry in treatment. You should be able to contact your doctor's office before the weekend -- but if not possible, do so when the office reopens. Good luck.

Question 9

stinging when urinating been goin on for months, had urine test (all clear ) also tummy pains yellow watery/stringy discharge and constant fever ?

Accepted Answer

STD? PID? See doctor: Colored vaginal discharge with mucus ("stringy") suggests inflammation of the cervix, often due to STDs, especially gonorrhea or chlamydia. With abdominal pain and fever, maybe pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), the main complication of those STDs. But maybe already tested? And somewhat unlikely to go on for months. Keep working w/ your doctor; or an NHS GUM clinic for guaranteed expert care.

Question 10

how long will you have hotflashes after menopause?

Accepted Answer

Potentially forever.: Contrary to what many people think, menopause is not a phase. Once your ovaries stop working, and stop producing estrogen and progesterone...That's forever. Some women don't have any hot flashes, some have them temporarily, and some have them for as long as they live. Of course, treatment with bioidentical hormones completely resolves the hot flashes and many other symptoms of menopause.
