OB/GYN Discussion Thread

manc I’m over at Dr. Miller’s office right now, and honestly, I’m really happy with it. He’s my first male gynecologist, which took some serious guts to decide, but he doesn't compare to the others... You’re only waiting about thirty minutes max, I can just call his cell if needed, and the nurse is incredibly sweet and welcoming. Ma 👍 👍

So, does that little gadget actually work, and more importantly, is it covered by insurance?

👋

Seriously ladies, listen up because you are totally missing out on the best advice ever! If you want some actual breathing room "down there," the secret is simple: WEAR SKIRTS! 😉 I mean, you’re all out here blowing cash on fancy creams and various treatments, or scheduling endless doctor appointments, but it’s honestly all for nothing if you don't change how you dress. GET IT?! So, seriously, try to stay out of pants as much as possible, especially now that it's summer!!!

I use his insurance coverage, even though he runs a private practice too. He works at the university clinic over by the mosque.

Dr. Rušinović from Supernova passed away. 😢

He was a wonderful man—really, he's the reason my princess is here with us today. 🙏

It only lasted about two days for me... I try to be as careful as possible with my diet, but I eventually realized it was being triggered by my daily pads. I've stopped using them altogether now. 😉
My doctor assured me that it isn't something you can catch through sexual contact, either.

And my doctor actually told me that a woman should always have a box of Canesten vaginal suppositories in her purse...🙄

Knock on wood.

Yeah, I started out with daily habits too...🙄 So, my doctor mentioned that I really ought to start avoiding daily pads... and well, here we are.😎

Knock on wood.

My doctor actually suggested that I try letting my body heal itself first rather than jumping straight to medication, and honestly, I think she’s right. I make it a point not to take any pills or drugs unless it's absolutely necessary.
Well, what can you do? Even medical experts can't agree on everything; every approach has its own set of pros and cons. At the end of the day, we aren't in a position to decide what the absolute best route is—honestly, even they don't have all the answers.

ironnomad12 said:My doctor told me that it isn't transmitted through sexual contact, or at least that's what she claims.

She told me the exact same thing, and I have to say, my dear husband's face turns bright red every single time it comes up!

I’ve finally come to the realization that alcohol is pretty much the root cause of all my issues!
The last time I actually tested this theory, I had a little bit of plum brandy, and sure enough, two days later, my period arrived... so, if you want my advice, just cut out the booze entirely!
..or at least give it a shot.. I know it isn't easy, but honestly, what else can you do?👋

Back when I was still living in Chicago, I used to go see Dr. Latin—she’s a woman, by the way—and she was just... honestly, a wonderful human being.
So, my daughter was actually there yesterday. I guess.
Honestly, I have no clue where the dust is even settling anymore. I suspect she might have moved back to her old place on Elm Street, though she probably still keeps that private rental too.

My sister was under the care of Dr. Latin during her pregnancy—if I recall correctly, he operates strictly as a private practitioner.

To be honest, I have heard nothing but glowing praise regarding his work.

I honestly think Dr. Latin is totally on the right track here, kind of like how we'd say someone is acting in the spirit of a true professional!

Actually, Dr. Latin is currently at the Vili clinic, just like Dr. Kos, who used to be over at St. Jude’s too.

I know that clinic is private, just like how Dr. Kuvačić handles things at Kuva and Dr. Šimunić does at the IVF center, but I honestly thought they had a location over at St. Jude’s too!

He was such a wonderful man... he really deserved everything for helping my princess be here with us today. 🙏

I'm right there with you... I actually shed a tear when I saw the news in the paper. 🙂
Where on earth do you find another expert like him... or just a truly great human being like that?

Hey everyone, I have a quick question... I could really use some insight here.

My girlfriend started taking birth control pills about five or six days ago, right after her period ended.
We were together last night and I finished inside. Is there a chance she could end up pregnant?

Generally speaking, if you start taking them on day one of your cycle, you should be fine. However, if you wait until somewhere between day two and day five, you really ought to use backup protection for that first week just to be safe.

Honestly, if these people would just read the damn warning label before they start swallowing whatever junk they find, or maybe actually consult their doctor, we wouldn't be here. These aren't gummy bears, you know? 🙂 😉
