From hormonal imbalances to psychological burdens, there’s a roller coaster of ups and downs that we come across on a day-to-day basis.

Here are 5 health problems that most of us have faced at one point or the other, and in most cases, shushed our apprehensions with googled remedies.
1. Facial Hair Woes
While facial hair is a common phenomenon in many women, it becomes a matter of concern when growth becomes rapid and irregular. It is most likely a consequence of hormonal fluctuations in the body and sitting over it just won’t help. From PCOS, Cushing’s syndrome, to a mere side-effect of ongoing medication, irregular facial hair growth is an underlying symptom of a wide range of women’s problems. So, it’s only fair to discuss it with an experienced doctor.
2. Vaginal Vagaries
Now, this is one issue that girls are oh-so-shy to discuss amongst themselves, let alone the gynecologist. What’s more? A wide umbrella of women’s problems is related to the vagina- right from yeast infections, swelling to soreness. In all honesty, intimate health problems can ratchet up your discomfort, and the only solution is addressing them on time.
3. Periods – Always In Question!
While we’ve all made peace with this monthly havoc, we should certainly monitor our menstrual trends. Be it changes in your premenstrual symptoms, bleeding between period cycles or after sex, a pregnancy scare- ignore absolutely nothing, ladies. While the causes may be basic and nothing to worry about, when it comes to your period, it’s only advisable to be one step ahead of the adversity.
4. Sex-Related Queries
It’s easy to get embarrassed when it comes to asking sex-related questions, but that doesn’t kill the questions, right? Some women face painfully large amounts of discomfort while having sex, while the others have their apprehensions about orgasms and STI’s. However embarrassing or dumb a question may be, the smart thing is “to ask it”!
5. The Mounting Risk Of PCOS
This growingly common syndrome comes with a lot of easy-to-miss symptoms and hampers the over-all health of a woman’s body. So if you’ve experienced drowsiness, discolouration, heavier than usual periods, cravings, acne, among other seemingly common symptoms, its time to head to a doctor already!
Woman to woman, my only advice will be to peel back the curtains apprehension and address your issues head-on.
