For about 3 weeks, my vagina has been extremely itchy and sore, with little white goosebumps visible. I have a history of UTIs and yeast infections, but never experienced this level of pain. My last pap test was a few months ago with normal results. I also have cysts and ulcers in my medical history. I have excessive white discharge, but no clumpy discharge or blisters. There is a slight smell when I pee, but no fishy smell. It almost looks like an open wound. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I misread my antibiotics label and took 5 tablets of 800 mg ibuprofen over 2 days instead of 500 mg amoxicillin. I'm 15 weeks pregnant and worried about potential lung or internal damage to the baby. I haven't had a second-trimester ultrasound yet and haven't felt any kicks. I'm also healing from a wisdom tooth infection and was prescribed amoxicillin for it. What should I do?

Is there a real difference between using Vagifem tablets and Estrace cream for hormone replacement therapy? Do you have a preference of using one product over the other? What have your patients found? Additionally, what factors do you consider before prescribing Premarin over Estrace, and is there a difference in the dose of hormones between these two products?

I have a UTI. Do I need to go to a doctor for medicine, or can I get it somewhere else since it’s going to be the weekend? My symptoms include frequent urination every 2-3 minutes, intense burning sensation during urination, and no blood in the urine. I am 21 years old and not on any regular medications.
