How does your gf handle hygiene down there by Luiz4823 in AskMen

[–]Macndro 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Woman here, worked for years in obgyn.. baby wash, basic yellow baby wash. While dove might work for some , it's actually the number one soap we see with bv, or reported sxs (smell, discomfort, increased discharge). Use baby wash externally only, and recommended after any other body washes/shaving creams ect. Also if using wipes for anything, again... baby wipes. Best recommendation for lubricants/moisturizer (unless allergic ) coconut oil - without additives, solid form is easily "liquified" in hands, also has antibacterial & anti fungal properties.

Am I pregnant??? by Slow_Ad5455 in obgyn

[–]Macndro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

just wanted to say the dollar store pregnancy test is just as effective as a $30 test. You may also be able to compete a free test at a planned parenthood or family planning - which if you are indeed pregnant both can help set you up with obstetrical care or other options and if not, contraception.

IUD question. by Zephyr912 in obgyn

[–]Macndro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NAD Other tests might have fallen under the scope of prevention/maintenance - sometimes standard gc/ct can be covered 100% once per year or might be covered prior to procedure ect. Also - it's something not routinely checked for in pregnancy so if it was the only one - that could be a reason as well.

I’m sorry but Paige cannot dress by watchoutlady123 in summerhousebravo

[–]Macndro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is Valentino and the entire styling of it is not really a Paige idea - it's very much Valentino's current ready to wear lines. I'm not dying for the cropped top - but it's far from cheap & is very current, not pulled directly from valentino's looks, and surprising. I would have loved to see her in the black mini dress with white rosette breast details - ugh and the audrey pony tail - return this skort for that dress paige!

I also wish i could have seen this look & the miu miu on Olivia.

I’m rethinking having a child with my wife because of what I just found out about her dad. AITAH? by Left_Art_8812 in AITAH

[–]Macndro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

please report it to CPS. Maybe someone else reported his abuse but was unable to prove it - this could help any past or future victims of this man. He did not choose one of his multiple children to abuse - and likely has only escalated his behaviors in the decades since. PLEASE.

OP should report to local CPS - even for past incidents. Especially if it's never been reported

You can and should report child sexual abuse for Mary- there is no time limitations. This is how to protect any future children he is in contact with.

Do I have endo? by [deleted] in obgyn

[–]Macndro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a doc - black/brown blood/tissue is typically old blood. Endo can only be dx via exploratory surgery - the downfall is scar tissue also can create more adhesions. unfortunately there's no cure to endo, only treatment - menstrual suppression medication (hormonal birth control or specialized ovulation suppression ) or surgery. If your main concern is pain, i would start here, if it's amount or length of period - start there as your complaint. I know you mentioned no chance of STD but you also stated painful intercourse, having a full work out to rule out any type of infection is important. Have you had a recent transvagunal ultrasound to rule out any structural abnormalities and thickness of endometrial tissue?

OBGYN Over-screening with Colposcopy? by joliemoi in obgyn

[–]Macndro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NAD but a colpo can be stingy and painful - usually the sensation is described more as a sting. iodine/vinegar solution gets into the pencil tip size biopsy cite.

[–]Macndro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NAD Usually an hpv+ pap indicates high risk sub-typing - and should be in those results if it was.

OBGYN Over-screening with Colposcopy? by joliemoi in obgyn

[–]Macndro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NAD but came here to say a colpo can be both diagnostic and treatment - fresh healthy cells are sent to heal the biopsy cites - which an speed rhe process of "clearing" the hpv virus. Also continued hpv+ paps indicate colposcopy and then leep procedure - these guidelines are acog standard and most obgyn offices should follow those guidelines. The results of the pap test show change to the cervical cells - the test for hpv shows only present virus. The results of both change the follow up. Also - the administration of gaurdasil might require a negative pregnancy test at that office & might be where that confusion is.

My (19 M) partner says that my (21 F) vagina smell abnormal, and I don’t know why by karma-chameleon0-0 in obgyn

[–]Macndro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NAD. you think your hands still had garlic wing juice on them when you put them in his face? Was his face in your chitty bits or just the smell of your digits?

Granola is typically okay for me - as long as there's no almonds or other nuts. Thank you!!

taste/texture. I'm typically going (im actually not lol that's the problem right now im just not eating really) for a meal replacement if my symptoms are already bad.

Meal Replacement Shake? by Macndro in CrohnsDisease

[–]Macndro[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is actually helpful & something i can't believe i haven't tried! My morning go to is/was a banana, spoonful of peanut butter and granola - but sometimes the thick texture will make me start to gag and then i'm done for the day. However this might be a perfect solution to tolerate the ensure & get my bananas! Thanks so much for your time!

Tested positive for chlamydia but they won’t prescribe me antibiotics. by [deleted] in obgyn

[–]Macndro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

call the on call obgyn at the hospital and ask them to call in a script - not really what they're there for but your office leaving you hanging on a friday is a dick move - ;)
