Patient's question:
Medical Description: The patient is a 21-year-old female who previously had a yeast infection but it has been mostly treated. Today, during sexual intercourse, she experienced some bleeding after about an hour of urination. There is no pain or itching. Treatment history and effectiveness: The yeast infection has been well-treated, but recently she noticed abnormal vaginal discharge and purchased one Daktarin tablet for a course of treatment. Then, her menstrual period started, which led to the current situation. Desired help: What should I do? I am too afraid to go to the hospital.Doctor's answer:
Hello, the date of ovulation for women is generally about 14 days before the next menstrual period. Ovulatory bleeding is a phenomenon that can occur in every woman and is usually associated with a higher chance of pregnancy during the ovulation period. However, if menstruation is irregular or delayed and pregnancy is ruled out, it is often caused by ovarian dysfunction or failure to ovulate. Therefore, menstrual irregularity can affect fertility. For women with irregular periods, it is recommended to undergo an ultrasound examination to detect ovulation or use basal body temperature to confirm the ovulation period. It is also advised to maintain a healthy lifestyle and learn to manage stress. In case of any abnormalities, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. When choosing a hospital, it is recommended to go to a Class III-A hospital, considering factors such as comprehensive equipment and the expertise of the medical staff.
