Vulvovaginal Conversation Paper

In order to witness enough couples interacting sexually two different bars were observed. One was a karaoke bar with pool tables. The other was a club like bar that had little to no seating inside, but many picnic tables outside. The most common behavior made by people who seemed attracted to each other was physical touching. This behavior was shown in a couple ways. The male or female partner would touch the females arm, shoulder, and thigh. While in a dancing environment the couples displayed sexual dancing acts, such as grinding while dancing or kissing. Throughout the night, as people grew more intoxicated, the sexual behaviors expressed were more publicly sexual and aggressive at times.

In the case of 5 year of Beza undergoing Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) at a young age, I believe we should start by revisiting what exactly FGM is before inputting our opinion on this case. What is Female Genital Mutilation? There are three types of FGM that can be performed. The first being Clitoridectomy; is when part or the whole of the clitoris is amputated and the bleeding is stopped by pressure or stitching. The second type is Excision; both the clitoris and the inner lips are amputated. The bleeding is usually stopped stitching, but the vagina is not covered up. Lastly, the third type is infibulation; the clitoris is completely removed. Some or all of the labia minora are cut off, and incisions are made in the labia majora to create a raw surface.

As mentioned earlier, this study used the ICD-9-CM coding classification system to define BV cases. A female service member was defined as “BV case” if she had a diagnosis of BV based on the ICD-9-CM code 610.10 (vaginitis and vulvovaginitis, unspecified) in either the first or the second diagnostic position of an outpatient or inpatient encounter medical record from the DMSS in the preceding years of the index date for CT or NG infection. On the basis of the evidence currently available, BV is a common disorder among women and recurrent BV episodes are frequent. However, there is no universally accepted definition of recurrent BV by a number of researchers (Morris et al., 2001; Eschenbach, 2007; Lambert et al., 2013). Wilson (2004) reported

Yeast infection is the women’s health topic that I have decided I want to cover. Mainly because, I suffered from this infection a couple years ago and I would like to share what I learned from it. Also, because I feel that women tend to feel ashamed or embarrassed when they talk about what happens down there. I remember the doctor explained, that discharge is a mucus that we –women- produce. It usually changes in the middle of our cycle, when you ovulate, and it starts to get thicker just before you menstruate. Until this point, everything is normal and okay. But when your discharge starts smelling, chances are, it’s due to the overgrowth of bacteria. He mentioned, that the bacteria that sits in your teeth when you have a tooth infection or the one in your nose when you have sinusitis, is the same bacteria found in your vagina when you have a yeast infection.

Vaginal Thrush is an infection caused by yeast called candida albicans. Candida albicans are among the twenty species of Candida yeast that cause infections in humans. Candida yeasts are usually harmless and typically live around the vaginal area and on the skin; nevertheless an overgrowth can cause symptoms to develop. In most cases vaginal thrush symptoms are obvious, common symptoms include pain, itching and vaginal discharge. Vaginal thrush is a condition that interferes with the sexual function and sense of wellbeing of a woman. Women who have vaginal thrush often experience pain during sexual intercourse or when urinating. Thrush that is symptomatic are categorized as either uncomplicated or complicated. Uncomplicated thrush occurs occasionally and is mild while complicated thrush is recurrent and becomes more severe over time.

The different types of Candidiasis are determined by the area of the body they affect. Oropharyngeal candidiasis, otherwise known as Thrush, inhabits the buccal cavity or throat. Candidiasis of the vagina is commonly referred to as a yeast infection. The most clinically significant version of candidiasis is invasive candidiasis, which happens as a result of a candida species entering the bloodstream and spreading throughout the body. Invasive candidiasis is primarily found in immunocompromised patients such as those suffering from HIV, undergoing corticosteroid therapy, chemotherapy, or those with diabetes.

Sixty students completed a stereotype and prejudice survey measuring the amount of knowledge they have on identifying a person’s sexual orientation and why it is difficult for them to be open bout there sexual preferences in society. Students were asked background question in relation to age, gender, and college year. When conducting this study a majority of participants where 19 years old.

The gender that participated the most in the study were females which outnumbered men with women compiling 73.3% of the participants and males making up 26.7% of the study. A majority of respondents were Latino/Hispanic 30 respondents, making up 65% of the survey. The rest of the respondents can be broken

Candidiasis is a fungal infection that is caused by yeast belonging to the Candida family. There are upwards of 20 different species that are associated with Candida that can cause infections for humans, the most common of which are Candida albicans and Candida auris in healthcare settings. Although, Candida lives throughout the body causing no harm, an overpopulation can make symptoms arise and infection to occur. Candida is normally found in the intestinal tract or on your mucous membranes and skin. With overpopulation of these Candida albicans, common infections can occur like thrush or yeast infections. Thrush, or oropharyngeal candidiasis is the infection of the mouth. Yeast infections commonly occur in the vagina of females. (CDC Candidiasis,

Mayer et al. (2015) examined the rapid and significant changes to vaginal microbiota following antibacterial treatment for BV, and found that metronidazole, although the first line treatment for BV, is not effective ultimately effective against G. vaginalis; within 24 hours of administration, there was complete reorganization of the vaginal microbiota, with G. vaginalis reemergence within 7 days. It is speculated that drug resistance may be partially responsible for their results. By contrast, Waheed, Yaseen & Shami (2015) evaluated the most effective therapy to prevent complications of pregnancy caused by BV, and obtained a 74% cure rate using 0.75% metronidazole cream; this was similar in results to use of 2% clindamycin vaginal cream, although the clindamycin regimen is shorter in duration (p.

Candidiasis is a disease in which a fungal infection of the mucous membranes is found in the mouth and throat. The organism may cause infections in other locations, such as nails, skin (diaper rash), vagina, and the gastrointestinal tract. There are many types of fungus that live in the human body including candida. Candida is a type of yeast that normally lives in small amounts in areas like your mouth and belly, or skin without causing any issues. The immune system and the body’s bacteria usually keep Candida in balance. When this balance is interrupted, it can result in an overgrowth of the Candida fungus, causing it to get infected. The infection is called Candidiasis. There are several different types of candidiasis, such as Thrush (Oropharyngeal Candidiasis), Genital Yeast Infection (Genital Candidiasis), Diaper Rash From Yeast Infection, and Invasive Candidiasis.

Background: Pruritus vulvae and vaginal discharge are symptoms which patients often present to their general practitioner. The most common cause of pruritus vulvae is vaginal discharge. Infection is the commonest cause of vaginal discharge which is common among sexually active women of reproductive age group.

On Tuesday, November 12, I attended Laci Green’s Best Sex Ever event at Hub 302. Laci Green, a sex educator on YouTube came to UCR to give us a talk/lecture on how to enjoy sex to the fullest extent while being completely safe with it. As we waited in line, the people from WELL walked around with a trolley that had a lot of condoms to advocate safe sex. Laci Green presented with a lecture that included many pictures of male and female parts. She explained how we feel pleasure when there is stimulation. Many of the information in the event were stuff we learned in class. She started off with the anatomical parts of both gender. Then she talked about the different condoms that are available on the market that help with the protection from sexually
