[24F] Experiencing vaginal symptoms and urinary incontinence

What might be happening

Based on the information you've provided, the following conditions might be causing your symptoms:

• Urinary Tract Infection (UTI): UTIs are common infections that happen when bacteria, often from the skin or rectum, enter the urethra, and infect the urinary tract. The symptoms can include pain with urination, frequent urination, and feeling the need to urinate despite having an empty bladder. UTIs can also cause discharge.

  • Treatment typically involves antibiotics prescribed by a doctor.

• Bacterial Vaginosis (BV): BV is a type of vaginal inflammation caused by the overgrowth of bacteria naturally found in the vagina, which upsets the natural balance. Symptoms can include vaginal discharge that's thin and grayish-white, foul-smelling "fishy" vaginal odor, especially after sexual intercourse, vaginal itching or irritation, and painful urination.

  • Treatment typically involves antibiotics prescribed by a doctor.

• Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs): Certain STIs, like chlamydia or gonorrhea, can cause similar symptoms to what you're experiencing. These infections can be passed between sexual partners during vaginal, anal, or oral sex.

  • Treatment typically involves antibiotics prescribed by a doctor.

• Vaginal Yeast Infection: This is a fungal infection that causes irritation, discharge, and intense itchiness of the vagina and the vulva.

  • Treatment typically involves antifungal medication, which can be purchased over-the-counter or prescribed by a doctor.

Please note that the chest pain you're experiencing is a serious symptom that needs immediate medical attention. It could be related to a heart condition, especially if it's located near your heart and is very painful.

What you can do

1. Seek immediate medical attention for your chest pain. This is a serious symptom that should not be ignored.
2. Schedule an appointment with your healthcare provider to discuss your symptoms. They may want to perform some tests to determine the cause of your symptoms.
3. In the meantime, drink plenty of water to help flush out your urinary tract and relieve your UTI symptoms.
4. Avoid sexual intercourse until you have seen a doctor, as this could potentially spread an STI (if present) to your partner.

What you should look out for

Please seek immediate medical attention if:

• Your chest pain becomes severe or is accompanied by other symptoms such as shortness of breath, dizziness, or nausea.
• You develop a fever.
• Your symptoms worsen or do not improve after a few days.
