The document discusses thrush and vaginitis. Common symptoms include itching, discharge, burning during urination, discomfort during sex, and rash. Symptoms are caused by infections like thrush, bacterial vaginosis, and trichomoniasis that lead to vaginal inflammation. Other causes can include steroid creams, douching, and contraceptives. Many women misdiagnose themselves and do not seek proper testing and treatment, promoting recurrent infections and resistance. The key is to obtain an accurate diagnosis through a home test or clinic before proceeding with treatment.

Sexually transmitted infections
This document discusses sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including gonorrhea and chlamydia. It notes that over 1 million STIs are acquired daily worldwide, with many having no or mild symptoms. Gonorrhea and chlamydia are both bacterial infections affecting the genital area that can be transmitted through oral, anal, or vaginal sex. While antibiotics can generally cure the infections, long-term complications may include pelvic inflammatory disease, infertility, and ectopic pregnancy if left untreated. The document recommends abstinence or monogamy with an uninfected partner as the most effective prevention methods.

It covers common infections like bacterial vaginosis, vulvovaginal candidiasis (yeast infection), trichomoniasis, atrophic vaginitis, herpes simplex virus, human papillomavirus, and gonorrhea. Diagnostic tests include cultures, smears, and exams. Treatments involve antibiotics, antifungals, and antivirals depending on the infection. Managing gynecological infections properly is important to prevent complications.
Vaginal Cancer
Vaginal cancer is a rare type of cancer most common in women 60 and older.
Women are more likely to develop vaginal cancer if they have the human papillomavirus (HPV) or if your birth mother took diethylstilbestol (DES) when she was pregnant.
There are several types of vaginal cancer:
Squamous cell carcinoma
About 70 of every 100 cases of vaginal cancer are squamous cell carcinomas. These cancers begin in the squamous cells that make up the epithelial lining of the vagina. These cancers are more common in the upper area of the vagina near the cervix. Squamous cell cancers of the vagina often develop slowly. First, some of the normal cells of the vagina get pre-cancerous changes. Then some of the pre-cancer cells turn into cancer cells. This process can take many years.
The medical term most often used for this pre-cancerous condition is vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia (VAIN). "Intraepithelial" means that the abnormal cells are only found in the surface layer of the vaginal skin (epithelium). There are 3 types of VAIN: VAIN1, VAIN2, and VAIN3, with 3 indicating furthest progression toward a true cancer. VAIN is more common in women who have had their uterus removed (hysterectomy) and in those who were previously treated for cervical cancer or pre-cancer.
In the past, the term dysplasia was used instead of VAIN. This term is used much less now. When talking about dysplasia, there is also a range of increasing progress toward cancer - first, mild dysplasia; next, moderate dysplasia; and then severe dysplasia.
Adenocarcinoma
Cancer that begins in gland cells is called adenocarcinoma. About 15 of every 100 cases of vaginal cancer are adenocarcinomas. The usual type of vaginal adenocarcinoma typically develops in women older than 50. One certain type, called clear cell adenocarcinoma, occurs more often in young women who were exposed to diethylstilbestrol (DES) in utero (when they were in their mother’s womb). (See the section called "What are the risk factors for vaginal cancer?" for more information on DES and clear cell carcinoma.)
Melanoma
Melanomas develop from pigment-producing cells that give skin its color. These cancers usually are found on sun-exposed areas of the skin but can form on the vagina or other internal organs. About 9 of every 100 cases of vaginal cancer are melanomas. Melanoma tends to affect the lower or outer portion of the vagina. The tumors vary greatly in size, color, and growth pattern. More information about melanoma can be found in our document called Melanoma Skin Cancer.
Sarcoma
A sarcoma is a cancer that begins in the cells of bones, muscles, or connective tissue. Up to 4 of every 100 cases of vaginal cancer are sarcomas. These cancers form deep in the wall of the vagina, not on its surface. There are several types of vaginal sarcomas. Rhabdomyosarcoma is the most common type of vaginal sarcoma. It is most often found in children and is rare in adults. A sarcoma called leiomyosarcoma is seen more often in adults.
Human papillomavirus (hpv)
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a common sexually transmitted infection with over 100 types. More than 60 types can cause skin warts while high risk types 16, 18, 45 and 31 cause most cervical cancers. Genital HPV infections are very common among sexually active individuals, with about 20 million people infected at any time. HPV is transmitted through direct skin-to-skin contact during sexual activity and infected birth canals. While warts can be removed, the virus itself cannot be cured as it may grow back, but vaccines exist to protect against high risk HPV types.
Diseases of female genital tract
The document describes images from a pathology lab showing abnormal tissue from the female genital tract. The images show grayish nodular tissue with enlarged fish eggs and chorionic villi that have undergone hydrophilic degeneration. Additional images show enlarged chorionic villi, syncytiotrophoblast proliferation, hair shafts and a protruding tooth emerging from the wall of a cyst lined with ectodermal stratified squamous epithelium, sweat glands and a hair follicle.
female genital tract infection
The document discusses infections of the female genital tract caused by various etiological agents including bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites. It describes key microscopic and cytological features of infections caused by organisms like Chlamydia trachomatis, Gardnerella vaginalis, Candida albicans, human papillomavirus, cytomegalovirus, and Trichomonas vaginalis. Infections of the female genital tract present with symptoms like abnormal vaginal discharge and can be diagnosed by examining cellular changes on microscopy and cultures.
Common Skin Disorders Of The Penis
This document summarizes common skin disorders that can affect the penis, organized into viral infections, bacterial ulcerative lesions, infestations, cutaneous diseases, balanitis/balanoposthitis, and premalignant and malignant tumors. It provides details on conditions such as genital warts, herpes, syphilis, psoriasis, lichen planus, balanitis, bowen's disease, and penile squamous cell carcinoma. Treatment options are discussed for each condition.
Female Genital Tract Pathology
The female genital tract is susceptible to several cancers and dysfunctions. Cervical cancer is diagnosed through cytologic screening and treated with surgical removal or vaccines. Dysfunctional uterine bleeding can result from anovulatory or inadequate luteal cycles. Endometrial cancer risk increases with age, obesity, diabetes, and nulliparity. The most common type is endometrioid adenocarcinoma. Ovarian cancer risk is higher with nulliparity, family history, and certain genetic mutations.

Yeast Infections
Vaginal yeast infections, also calledcandida vaginal infections or candidiasis, are common and easily treated in most women. Candida is a fungus. It commonly exists in small amounts in the vagina, mouth and gastrointestinal tract. When the fungus overgrows in the vagina, a yeast infection develops. This causes uncomfortable symptoms such as vaginal itching, burning and discharge.
Sexually Transmitted Infections
Sexually transmitted infections (STIs), formerly called venereal diseases, are common infections spread through sexual contact. STIs affect about 15-16 million people in the US each year. They are caused by bacteria, viruses, or parasites and are transmitted through sexual behaviors like vaginal, anal, or oral sex. Many STIs initially show no symptoms but can cause health issues if left untreated, including infertility and cancer. Treatment and prevention requires abstinence, condom use, vaccinations, testing and treatment of partners.

Article on S T I .Daily News
Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) have been present since ancient times. The World Health Organization estimated 340 million new STI cases in 1999 among people aged 15-49, most occurring in South/Southeast Asia. STIs are transmitted primarily through unprotected sex but some can also be transmitted through blood or from mother to child. Common STIs in Sri Lanka include genital herpes, genital warts, syphilis, gonorrhea, and trichomoniasis which are caused by viruses, bacteria, or parasites. While some STIs can be cured with treatment, others like genital herpes can cause recurring outbreaks.
Trichomonas vaginalis
Trichomonas vaginalis is a parasitic protozoan sexually transmitted infection that infects the urogenital tract, causing vaginitis in women and urethritis in men, with symptoms including abnormal discharge and irritation. It is estimated to infect over 7 million people annually in the US alone, though many cases are asymptomatic. While the first-line treatment is usually the antibiotic metronidazole, some strains have developed resistance requiring alternative treatments like tinidazole.
STIs and kenyan Youths
Gonorrhea and chlamydia are bacterial STIs that often show no symptoms. They are transmitted through unprotected sex and can lead to infertility if untreated. Common symptoms include abnormal discharge and burning during urination. Treatment involves antibiotics. Syphilis is a bacterial STI spread through direct contact with sores. It has stages of symptoms and can cause neurological problems if untreated. Herpes, HPV, HIV and scabies are viral STIs spread through skin-to-skin contact and sexual activity. They may cause rashes, warts or flu-like symptoms. Yeast infections are fungal infections that occur when the vaginal environment changes, allowing overgrowth. Risk factors include antibiotics and diabetes.

Dr. Ann Tan is the gynaecologist and obstetrician at women & fetal centre in Singapore where she solves the women reproductive system problems as well as takes care of women during, before, after her pregnancy. Here, She has shared a very useful document on “Common Gynaecological Problems” in which she is telling about symptoms of the vaginal infections. See our website at www.anntan.com.sg
Yeast Infection
Various conditions can cause vaginal symptoms similar to a yeast infection. A yeast infection is an overgrowth of yeast cells in the vagina that causes itching, irritation, and discharge. Symptoms are more common before a period and are usually caused by the Candida albicans yeast. Treatment involves antifungal medications applied internally or taken by mouth. Recurrent infections may require identifying an underlying condition favoring yeast overgrowth.
Syndromic approach
This document discusses the syndromic approach to diagnosing and treating sexually transmitted infections (STIs). It describes how STIs present as distinct syndromes based on their symptoms and signs. Using flowcharts, healthcare workers can diagnose and treat patients based on their presenting syndrome rather than attempting to identify the specific pathogen. This approach is recommended by the WHO as it is more accurate than clinical judgment alone and allows for treatment at the first visit. The document then outlines the main STI syndromes and their typical causes.

biomechanics of running. Dr.dhwani.pptx
The biomechanics of running involves the study of the mechanical principles underlying running movements. It includes the analysis of the running gait cycle, which consists of the stance phase (foot contact to push-off) and the swing phase (foot lift-off to next contact). Key aspects include kinematics (joint angles and movements, stride length and frequency) and kinetics (forces involved in running, including ground reaction and muscle forces). Understanding these factors helps in improving running performance, optimizing technique, and preventing injuries.

M.pharm - 1st year .Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapy
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.

PGx Analysis in VarSeq: A User’s Perspective
Since our release of the PGx capabilities in VarSeq, we’ve had a few months to gather some insights from various use cases. Some users approach PGx workflows by means of array genotyping or what seems to be a growing trend of adding the star allele calling to the existing NGS pipeline for whole genome data. Luckily, both approaches are supported with the VarSeq software platform. The genotyping method being used will also dictate what the scope of the tertiary analysis will be. For example, are your PGx reports a standalone pipeline or would your lab’s goal be to handle a dual-purpose workflow and report on PGx + Diagnostic findings.
The purpose of this webcast is to:
Discuss and demonstrate the approaches with array and NGS genotyping methods for star allele calling to prep for downstream analysis.
Following genotyping, explore alternative tertiary workflow concepts in VarSeq to handle PGx reporting.
Moreover, we will include insights users will need to consider when validating their PGx workflow for all possible star alleles and options you have for automating your PGx analysis for large number of samples. Please join us for a session dedicated to the application of star allele genotyping and subsequent PGx workflows in our VarSeq software.
