I had a laparoscopy last November, which showed healthy reproductive organs. I was then given 50mg of Clomid, an HCG injection, and Duphaston, which resulted in creating 3 ovarian cysts. My doctor stopped the treatment and asked me to take blood tests on day 21 of my cycle. The results were: FSH serum 0.8 [U/L], Luteinising hormone (serum) 0.5 [U/L], progesterone 3.6 [nmol/L], prolactin 886 [mU/L], free androgen index 1%. Does this mean I have a hormonal imbalance? What would my doctor prescribe to solve this? Is it something serious?

I've had itchy skin on my arms and legs for months now. It's so itchy that I scratch it but I'm trying not to. It's just so unbearable. Can you suggest what to do? I've seen 2 dermatologists. The one told me it was stress and prescribed a medication called kestine and a topic ointment and the other doctor (a specialist) prescribed anti-depressants! Neither worked. I had undergone a series of vaccines for allergies for 5 years beforehand and the itchy skin started soon after I stopped the vaccine. Could it be I'm now exhibiting symptoms to allergies to something else like certain foods?

I am experiencing pelvic pain and swelling near my groin area, along with lower back pain. I have a clear, jelly-like discharge with no odor, and no issues with my menstrual periods or urinary problems. I had a urinary infection about 6 or 7 months ago and took medication for what I thought was another urinary infection, but it didn't work. What could this be?

I have recently developed small, raised brown bumps on the shaft of my penis. I do tan a lot and am unsure if this is related to my tanning or sexual intercourse. I always wear a condom. What could be the cause of these bumps, and should I be worried?
