Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I feel cramped, itching and lower abdomen pain during urination. I had intercourse with my partner last month and since then I have faced this problem. I went to meet a gynecologist and she prescribed some medicine and felt fine for 10 days. Then, again I am facing the same problem. Also, I have PCOD. Please help me.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I presume that the sex was an unprotected one. So, there existdual risks of infection as well as pregnancy. As you have not mentioned about the first one, I think, you had your cycle after the episode. Now, regarding the infection, it could be a urinary infection along with fungal, which is responsible for the itching. First, you need to get your urine test done. Get a urine routine and culture sensitivity test and start the following medicines with your specialist doctor's consent.

  1. Tablet Taxim-O CV (combination of Cefixime and Clavulanate potassium)one tablet twice a day for five days.
  2. Tablet Urispas or Flavospas (Flavoxate) one tablet thrice a day for five days.
  3. Candid CL (Clindamycin) one tablet to be inserted high in vagina for five consecutive nights.

Investigations to be done

Urine for routine and microscopic examination as well as culture sensitivity.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
