I’ve got ulcers on my inner vagina (labia) and I’ve been tested for herpes and feel gross!

Hi ladies - I’m curious if anyone on here has any experience with taking Citalopram. I am a very anxious person and I was offered these meds by my doctor to mange it better.

I heard so much about this Mucinex thing to help you get pregnant. I was wondering when you are supposed to take it? Which one do you take? The tablets or the syrup? Does it work? Please let me know. I want to try it. Thank you an advance. Baby dust to all.

Just asking for advice and recommendations really! I took cerezette for 10 years prior to the birth of my 1st and got on well with it.

I’m really confused because I went into triage with pains and a midwife did that swab thing they do with the stick and said I have a raging uti and came up really quick so that’s why I feel pain.
