"Can you get an STI after a one-night stand?" Quick answer: Yes.

But there’s more to know—because not all infections show up right away.

Some STIs like herpes can appear in 2–3 days. Others like gonorrhea or chlamydia might take 1–3 weeks. And many? They’re completely symptomless at first.

🎯 It all depends on the type of infection, the strain’s strength, and your immune system.

Protect yourself:

Always use a condom
Consider getting tested 2–3 weeks after a risky encounter

Can PCOS be treated? Let’s clear that up.
If you’ve ever felt confused by conflicting advice online, you’re not alone.
Here’s what science—and real patient care—actually says. 💬

PCOS has no known cure, but that doesn't mean you're stuck.
It is treatable. With the right plan, many women regain control over their cycles, skin, weight, and even fertility.

Your treatment might include:
✨ Lifestyle support
✨ Hormone-balancing medications
✨ Insulin regulation
✨ Mental health care
✨ Fertility planning

Every body is different, and so is every PCOS journey.

At Womancare, we’re here to look at your whole picture, not just your hormone levels. Because you deserve care that fits you.

📩 DM us to talk to a doctor and start your personalized care plan.
No shame. No judgment. Just support.

🎀 EARLY SIGNS OF PCOS: KNOW THE WHISPERS BEFORE THEY GET LOUD

Polycystic O***y Syndrome (PCOS) affects about 1 in 10 women of reproductive age worldwide, yet it often goes undiagnosed for years. Many women dismiss early symptoms as “just stress,” hormonal imbalance, or normal puberty—but recognizing these subtle signs early can make all the difference in preventing long-term complications.

🔍 Common Early Symptoms of PCOS:
According to leading experts, early signs include:

Irregular periods or missed cycles (oligomenorrhea or amenorrhea)

Persistent acne or excessively oily skin

Excessive hair growth (hirsutism), especially on the face, chest, or stomach

Hair thinning or scalp hair loss (androgenic alopecia)

Mood changes, irritability, or chronic fatigue

Unexplained weight gain, especially around the midsection

Difficulty losing weight, even with regular exercise and diet

Darkened skin patches (acanthosis nigricans) or small skin tags

Carb or sugar cravings, often linked to insulin resistance

💬 Why Early Detection Matters
PCOS isn’t just a hormone issue—it’s also tied to insulin resistance, inflammation, and higher risk for:

✔️ Type 2 diabetes
✔️ Fertility challenges
✔️ Endometrial cancer
✔️ High blood pressure
✔️ Depression and anxiety

The earlier it’s diagnosed, the easier it is to manage symptoms and avoid long-term complications. With personalized care—lifestyle changes, medication, and regular check-ups—many women are able to restore hormonal balance, improve their quality of life, and even boost fertility.

✨ A Reminder from Womancare:
If you're experiencing two or more of these symptoms, track them over a few months and talk to a women’s health professional. You don’t have to wait for things to get worse before getting help.

➡️ PCOS is treatable. You are not alone.

25/07/2025

Polycystic O***y Syndrome (PCOS) is more than just ovarian cysts—it’s a hormonal, metabolic, and reproductive disorder affecting an estimated 6–13% of women of reproductive age and is the leading cause of female infertility (WHO). Yet up to 70% of those affected remain undiagnosed (WHO).

Left unchecked, PCOS can lead to:
• Insulin resistance & type 2 diabetes: Over half of women with PCOS will develop diabetes by age 40 (CDC).
• Cardiovascular disease: Women with PCOS have higher rates of hypertension and dyslipidemia (AHA).
• Mental health challenges: Increased risk of anxiety, depression, and reduced quality of life (J Clin Endocrinol Metab).
• Infertility & pregnancy complications: PCOS is the most common cause of anovulation (PCOS Challenge).
• Endometrial cancer: Women with PCOS are up to 5 times more likely to develop endometrial cancer (PMC).

Common signs to watch for:
• Irregular or missed periods
• Excess facial/body hair & acne
• Weight gain or difficulty losing weight
• Small ovarian cysts (on ultrasound)
• Mood changes: anxiety & depression

What you can do:

Track & Prepare: Log your menstrual cycles, weight, skin, and mood for 2–3 months.

See a Specialist: Book an OB-GYN or endocrinologist consult to check hormone panels and screen for complications.

Lifestyle First: Aim for a balanced, low-glycemic diet and at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise per week—just a 5–10% weight loss can improve symptoms (Frontiers in Endocrinology).

Medical Options: Discuss metformin for insulin resistance, hormonal birth control for cycle regulation, or fertility support if you’re planning pregnancy.

Early recognition and a personalized care plan can help you reclaim balance—hormonally, metabolically, and emotionally. 💙

HEALTH ADVISORY: WHAT IS LEPTOSPIROSIS & HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF 🌧️

Leptospirosis is a bacterial infection from Leptospira found in water or soil contaminated with animal urine (especially rats). It enters through skin cuts or by swallowing/splashing water—early signs (2–14 days after exposure) include fever, headache, muscle aches, red eyes; severe cases can affect organs.

You waded through yesterday’s floods (or still see standing water)? Act within 24–72 hours:

🔍 Assess Your Risk
• Low: Brief contact, no cuts or water ingestion
• Moderate: Contact + cuts/abrasions or you swallowed water
• High: Repeated/prolonged exposure, known rodent/sewage presence

💊 Post-Exposure Prophylaxis
• Low Risk: Doxycycline 200 mg (single dose)
• Moderate Risk: Doxycycline 200 mg × 1 daily for 3–5 days
• High Risk: Doxycycline 200 mg × 1 weekly until waters recede

⚠️ Pre-Exposure (if you must stay in flood zones)
Start Doxycycline 200 mg weekly 1–2 days before exposure; continue until safe.

🤰 Pregnant/Breastfeeding?
Skip doxycycline—take Azithromycin 500 mg as a single dose within 24–72 hrs.

👀 Watch for Symptoms (up to 10 days)
• Fever (≥ 38 °C) • Severe headache/muscle aches
• Red eyes, jaundice, rash • Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea
—If any appear, seek medical care immediately.

🚨 BAHA ALERT in Metro Manila

Several areas in the metro are flooded today, and many were forced to walk through dirty floodwaters.

If you got submerged—even waist-deep—don’t ignore your intimate health. Floodwater can carry bacteria that may lead to infections or irritation.

👩‍⚕️ Here’s what to do ASAP:
✅ Rinse with clean water
✅ Change into dry, breathable underwear
✅ Skip the harsh soaps and feminine washes
✅ Watch out for itching, unusual discharge, or odor

If symptoms persist, message us for a consultation.
Your health matters—even in an emergency. 💙

No judgment. Just care.

If you think you might have an STI, don’t wait in fear. The best thing you can do for yourself and your partner is to get checked, talk to your doctor, and get treated early.

Your doctor’s clinic should be a safe space — no shame, no judgment — just real support to help you catch infections early and prevent complications.

Don’t let fear stop you from taking care of your health.
You deserve care and peace of mind.

If you’re seeing unusual secretions, discharge, or pus down there — don’t keep it to yourself. Many s*xually transmitted infections (STIs) like gonorrhea or chlamydia can stay hidden in women for a long time. By the time symptoms appear, the infection can already be severe.

Talking about it isn’t easy, but protecting each other’s health matters more than pride or fear. Get checked, get treated, and stay honest with your partner.

Your health — and your partner’s — is worth the open conversation.
No secrets. No shame. Just real care.

Vaginal discharge and itch? Not all 𝒾𝓃𝒻𝑒𝒸𝓉𝒾𝑜𝓃𝓈 are the same!

It’s normal to feel worried or embarrassed when something feels off with your girly parts — but remember, vaginal infections are common and nothing to be ashamed of.

Our OB-GYN Doctor says: “Don’t guess — know what you’re dealing with.”

Here’s a quick guide to three common causes of unusual discharge or itch — and how you might get them:

1) Candidiasis (Yeast Infection)
What it is: An overgrowth of Candida fungus that naturally lives in your girly parts.

How you might get it:
After taking antibiotics
Wearing tight or sweaty clothes for long periods
High sugar intake
Hormonal changes

Symptoms:
Intense itch and burning
Red, swollen v***a
Thick, white “cottage cheese-like” discharge
Discomfort when peeing or during s*x

It’s not s*xually transmitted but can come back if the cause isn’t managed.

2) Trichomoniasis (Trich)
What it is: A common s*xually transmitted infection caused by a parasite.

How you might get it:
Unprotected s*x with an infected partner
Having multiple s*xual partners
Symptoms:
Frothy, yellow-green discharge
Strong, unpleasant odor
Itching or irritation
Painful urination or s*x
Sometimes no symptoms at all

3) Bacterial Vaginosis (BV)
What it is: An imbalance of good and bad bacteria in your girly parts. It’s not an STI, but s*x can increase your risk.

How you might get it:
New or multiple s*xual partners
Douching
Smoking
Symptoms:
Thin, grayish or milky discharge
Noticeable fishy odor, especially after s*x
Mild itch or irritation (but not always)

When to see your OB-GYN:
If you notice any change in your usual discharge
If you feel itch, burning, or pain
If symptoms keep coming back
If you have new or multiple partners

Your girly parts deserve proper care — no shame, no stigma, just facts. When in doubt, get checked out.
