Question: Hi, Dr. XXXXXXX

I'm not sure if I can contact you through here with a non-question, but I wanted to report that I went to the gynecologist, and she told me to quit the birth control pills for a month, with no more medication applied to the vagina, as I have tried several products. She recommends it be left alone for a while (no sex, no swimming pools) for the natural flora and menstrual cycle to come back (as I had been bleeding irregularly too). I have been feeling better and I hope to continue on that path. I am considering also putting on Himalaya's (Ayurveda medicine) V-Gel in case symptoms come back.

Hello, doctor

I had a couple of instances yesterday where I continue to feel pressure from my bladder, coming from my pelvis, pain and heavyness in my buttocks and hips, the inner thighs (like the nodes there) and pain in my knees. This really boggles me and it's got a bit concerned. It's important for my doctor to know, so I'm going to call her (I didn't mention that detail to her), but I wanted to ask you if it'd be a good idea to see a urologist about it? I asked one on here and they recommended it. I should mention I've also had a vaginal ultrasound done, and my gynecologist said that everything looked normal, except that my uterus was slightly turned left, but she wasn't concerned about it.

The urine culture came out negative (for the second time), like I mentioned, but I haven't been taking ANY antibiotics for months now. That's why more and more am I sure that this is not infectous. I could take it again, just to make sure, but I'd like to hear your opinion.

I've also had a bladder/kidney ultrasound done and everything was described as normal. There was a bit of urine left on the bladder after I urinated, but the doctor who saw me didn't point it out as something serious.
