I am 29 years old and have experienced heavy bleeding for 14 days after not having a period for 2 months. I have large blood clots and some fatigue, but no pain or cramps. I am not on any medications or birth control and am sexually inactive. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My daughter, 8, has a mild deformity of the right ear (helical rim) due to incomplete cartilage formation. Should this be corrected as a child, and if so, what does the surgery entail, what type of anesthesia is used, and should I consult a plastic surgeon?

How long should I continue taking blood thinners after knee surgery and a DVT in my calf, especially if the clot is confirmed to be gone and I have concerns about ongoing knee pain and swelling?

I have donated blood plasma for many years, but this time, I got a letter saying they had found white blood antibodies in my blood, and I couldn't donate anymore. They said antibodies are formed during pregnancy (I've been pregnant six times), or from a blood transfusion, which I've never had. However, this is the first time they've found these antibodies, and I haven't been pregnant in ten years. Could this be a symptom of something else, some kind of autoimmune response?
