Thrush Guide
The chances are, you know thrush all too well. Around three-quarters of women will get it at one time or another – and many will get rid of it only to find it coming back again, and again. Fortunately, for most women it’s temporary, and easy to cure.
Ovarian cysts
Ovarian cysts are very common. Most of the time they’re painless with no symptoms they are often a sign of your ovulation. However, sometimes they can indicate an underlying condition that may need attention.
Vaginal discharge
Most of the time, discharge from your vagina is perfectly normal. It’s an important and natural function of your reproductive system. Normal discharge keeps your vagina clean and helps prevent infection.
Pain during sex
Sex can be one of life’s great pleasures but occasionally, it can be painful and cause worry for both partners. Painful sex is more common in women, with around 3 out of 4 affected at some point in their lives.
Lower abdominal pain
Lower abdominal pain in women can be caused by different conditions, from minor infections to reproductive system infections. There are many reasons why women of all ages experience abdominal pain. Generally, it’s very common and easy to manage if you know the cause.
Post-menopausal bleeding
Postmenopausal bleeding is vaginal bleeding that occurs a year or more after your last menstrual period. It can be a symptom of vaginal dryness, polyps (noncancerous growths) or changes in your reproductive system.
