Did you guys see the BV study that came out?

There was a study done on bacterial vaginosis that is now showing that BV is an STI so the best way to treat it is to also have your partner treated with antibiotics including topical!

Opinion regarding uti in pregnancy...

I am not 100% sure I have a uti. If anything, I have mild symptoms. However, i have bought anti biotics and am thinking whether to take it or not. I don't like that anti biotics kills all bacteria. It feels like it mustn't be 100% safe during pregnancy for this reason. Can UTIs go away on their own? If I wait a ...

Contraception

What contraception has everyone gone for? I’m thinking the coil but I’m sooo scared of getting it for some reason - I had a traumatic birth so worried something will go wrong. I really don’t want another baby yet so I need a reliable contraceptive!

Do you/or partner have this practice of washing your privates before sex?

So me and hubby got in a little understatement recently because he told me to go wash myself before sex. I was like “what” I thought I misunderstood, since we’ve been together 7 years and he’s just brought it up. He says it’s normal to wash yourself a bit, to be cleaner and great smelling down below. I said I would ...

Scared to take plan B

I have always been scared to take hormonal birth control. Husband’s condom failed us four days out from ovulation day. I have been researching plan B side effects and it did arrive from Amazon but I cannot get myself to take it. I am also breastfeeding my 11 month old so that adds to the fear. Any advice ?

Preparing

What’s the situation with tidying up down there… I can’t see past my stomach and really don’t want to be cutting down there. Do you grab a mirror?, Ask your partner for help?, Just risk it and hope for the best? & how far in advance did you have to prepare just so I don’t have to keep on top of it🤣 Many thanks
