I bleed for about 6 weeks after delivery then it completely stopped, then a week or so later I had a little heavier spotting and I called my doctor and they said it could be my first period.

What was yours like?
Do you think it was my first period?
I haven’t had one since and it has been over a month.

Any advice would help, my husband and I are planning on having another baby as soon as possible.

FYI: I have been breastfeeding and for 3 months and I am weaning him off now.

I was given:
Keflex
Bactrim
Zithromax
Genamicin
Penacillin
all at different times to get rid of an infection that I still HAVE!
Plus I was told to eat lots of Yogurt to not get a Yeast infection.
so Im wondering:
Am i defeting the purpose of the Antiboitics by consuming the yogurt which load you up with probiotics.
as this is the FIRST time I have ever NOT been able to rid myself of infection and used Yogurt at same time.
anyone know about this or can dirct me to a site for answers.
Please, thanks!

Im 18, male and wondering what are the chances i can get an STD or impregnate a girl even while using condoms? Is it common for everyone in USA to have STDs these days? I see so many sexually active people around me. Have they just accepted the fact that they will get an STD one of these days? Please enlighten me.

My roommate thinks he might have herpes, I am not supposed to know. Is there anyway I can get it from using the same soap? Or toilet seat? Is there any signs that I would be able to notice? What are the dangers if it doesn’t get treated? Can I get it easily?

What could it be? Is it normal to have milk white discharge?? It doesn’t smell bad or anything, but it gets into my underwear. What is this? For those who have been pregnant?
How can I know if it is leakage of amniotic fluid?

What does Thrush look like on mom and baby?




On part of my nipples the skin is whiteish and it can be rubbed off in some spots. They are cracked on the outer sides of both and tender. I’ve been pumping only for 3 weeks now (since birth), usung Lanohlin oil and nursing pads. Can my baby get thrush if Im giving him breastmilk from a bottle? And what does it look like?

Alcohol vs. candidiasis?




I’m a 25-year-old male. I’m been prescribed penicillin, 300mg po 3/d, to clear up a bacterial throat infection.

I’m worried about contracting oral candidiasis during treatment as it’s happened before when I’ve been on antibiotics.

Is strong ethyl alcohol (either the drinking sort, or an alcohol-based mouthwash like Listerine), just swished around the mouth, a way to prevent this? I know that candidiasis is caused by a yeast, and that most yeast can’t survive concentrated alcohol (why wine tops out at 12-14%).

Most medical sites recommend abstaining from alcohol with (or to prevent) thrush. I imagine this is because when imbibed it breaks down easily into sugars that only feed the problem? And if I don’t actually metabolize (i.e. drink), it’s really the best protection I can get without another prescription or an OTC antifungal… right?

I’m looking for a semi-professional opinion as I’ve done as much research as an amateur hack like me can do.

Thanks for your help!
P.S. probiotic food (yogourt, etc). is the common solution, and is already on the list as soon as I can go get some.
