My answers to all 4 questions are NO. Frequency is normal. I assume the woman as she told me she doesn't have any diseases.
Will you be able to prescribe the medication for me. My pharmacy number is 703-451-1595
My Name is XXXX
I see you are in XXXXXXX Is there a way for you to contact a doctor in US to prescribe the medication for me.
My other question. Why would I get this Ballanitis. Is it from me I have issues or she gave it to me because she may have a yeast infection.
Will it go away soon I hope. How do I prevent getting this again.
