Question

I have a thick white discharge from my vagina and it itches. Could I have a yeast infection?

Answer 1

Yeast infection: The flucanazole may have to repeated or intensified. Your gynecologist may ok applying monistat or mycolog cream, which also contains corticosteroid to relieve the itch, to the vulvar and perianal regions. Also be aware that a sexual partner may need to be treated for a yeast infection which can be transmitted to and from partners.

Answer 2

So close to birth: Hi are you ready? This sounds like your uterus is preparing to begin labor. The frustrating part is that we cannot predict how long this transition phase will take before you are in active labor. But, you are getting closer. Congratulations.

Answer 3

Generally not: Most respiratory infections are caused by viruses and should not be treated with antibiotics. Vibramycin (doxycycline) will treat some bacterial infections.

Answer 4

Need investigations: Varieties of diseases can cause your symptoms first pelvic exam by your gyn doctor, it could be pelvic inflammatory disease (pid). A misses appendicitis with small pelvic abscess, low blood sugar, uncontrolled diabetes , or hypertension , need simple sonogram to ct scan, endoscopy etc. You need these step by step to find cause and then the cure.

Answer 5

See a doctor: Have you seen a gastroenterologist? I would consider seeing a specialist when faced with a symptom you can't find an answer for.

Answer 6

Sometimes: A ct scan will show the ovaries in the pelvis. Only significant and sometimes advanced changes of ovarian cancer such as excess fluid in the pelvis may be noticeable.

Answer 7

MAYBE: Although a contrast-enhanced ct--or, better still, a pelvic ultrasound--are preferred methods for visualizing the ovaries, a non-contact ct would likely show nonspecific irregularities of the ovaries. Bottom line: pelvic ultrasound is the best choice for visualizing ovaries.

Answer 8

Not usually: A much better test to detect ovarian cancer would be a transvaginal ultrasound.

Answer 9

Not necessarily...: Seeing ovarian cancer or not from ct without contrast is less desirable and accurate. But if an ovarian cancer is big and calcified, it can be easily suspected as how it may look. But, following the specific ct protocol for a specific suspected tumor so to have better visualization and diagnosis is highly recommended. Detail? Ask radiologist.

Answer 10

AURI: Auri is respiratory tract infection and bronchitis, elevation of liver enzymes and functions involve the GI tract or system.
