I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend just over 3 weeks ago. A week after having sex, I experienced heavy bleeding and clotting for around 5 hours and severe abdominal pains. After this, I was lightly spotting. I'm guessing that I had an early miscarriage? As I've never bled like that before and it was the second time I had sex. I experienced abdominal pains up to 2 weeks after the suspected miscarriage. Now the pain comes and goes. I'm too scared to go to the doctors as sex before marriage is forbidden according to my religion and I don't want anything like that to go into my medical record. Some days, I feel as though I'm pregnant. Is this normal? My periods have always been irregular so I'm not sure as to when I should take a pregnancy test. Please help.

I always brush, floss, tongue scrape, use alcohol-free mouthwashes, drink lots of water, visit my dentist regularly, and maintain a healthy lifestyle, yet I still have persistent bad breath that doesn't seem to originate from my mouth. This issue is affecting my confidence in both work and social life. What other potential causes could there be for my bad breath, and what steps can I take to address it?
