Those with white hair will remember the “friend” voice. Before the advent of the internet, when we wanted to find useful advice for well-being, we sometimes called over the phone to find someone who could help us. Today, in the age of the network and social media, everything is more tremendously fast. But there is always the need to have authoritative opinions on small intimate health problems, from vaginal discharge, the causes of which we may not know well, to possible problems related to the cycle or menopause. And this is precisely the “mission” of Gyno-Chat, a completely free service for all women looking for reliable answers on female intimate health, available on the portal Bayer’s “SapereSalute.it”. Thanks to a technology capable of guaranteeing maximum confidentiality, every woman can come into contact and converse with a professional gynecologist, obtaining an answer in less than two minutes. The chat is active every day from 16.00 to 20.00.
Small problems to know
Symptoms related to intimate problems can vary. And they must be known and faced in the right way. This is why expert advice is essential. Just think of the vaginitis, that is an inflammation of the vaginal mucosa that can have different origins. In some cases it is an infectious form, linked to the reproduction of bacteria, fungi or viruses, in others it follows a trauma, perhaps also linked to excessively tight pants, or even to chemicals present in vaginal douches used in excess or by allergy, in case of candida infection, one of the most frequent conditions, white discharges appear, odorless and resembling cottage cheese, which are accompanied by itching and redness. The advice of the expert, in these cases, is essential, when obviously the disorder is occasional and lasts for a short time. But to have a “friendly voice” and above all prepared to help us, as proposed Gyno-Chat, it is not only useful for such specific cases. If you go to the classic premenstrual syndrome or if you regularly encounter dysmenorrhea, that is the classic pain during your period, once the gynecologist has ascertained that there are no organic problems to explain the situation, it is necessary, month after month, to face it. And maybe, sometimes, having expert chat support can help, particularly in very young girls because menstrual pain on its own tends to lessen (not a fixed rule) with age. The pain, very intense, arises from uterine contractions and can be worsened by the lack of blood and therefore of oxygen typical of the menstrual period. Discomfort often presents itself as cramps, or is constant: it begins in the lower abdomen but can radiate to the legs or even to the back. Living the situation without excessive stress, which obviously amplify the pain, is essential. And having a gynecologist available who calms us down and offers us simple advice, even via chat only, means being able to better deal with this and many other problems related to female intimacy such as cystitis: drink at least two liters of water a day, avoid the use of aggressive vaginal cleansers, do not use antibiotics unless prescribed by the doctor, follow the well-being of the intestinal microbiota means laying a basis to counteract the appearance of the picture. And if an expert advises us on what to do in time of need, even just via chat, we will be more ready to overcome small disturbances, thanks to information and knowledge.
