I had an ultrasound done recently due to heavy periods lasting longer than usual (about 2 weeks) since October. I have questions about my uterus size and the findings of a left ovarian cyst that has decreased in size. Additionally, I want to know if nabothian cysts and an anteverted uterus are normal.

I am a 24-year-old female who tested positive for chlamydia in April 2021 during pregnancy. Recently, I noticed moles on my private part and a wart on my finger. I am concerned about HPV and whether these symptoms indicate a problem. What should I do?

My main concern is to know if I have to worry about these new symptoms: Frequent urination (since one year ago), a clot of dark blood coming from the throat, back pain in the middle on the right side, varicose veins in both feet that sometimes hurt. I am a 68-year-old female who had a Whipple surgery for ampullary cancer in 2012, with a local tumor recurrence and ongoing chemotherapy. What should I do about these symptoms?

I have pain in my lower abdomen when I pee. The pain started yesterday morning and is constant. It is dull in nature and I have not experienced nausea, bloating, or changes in stool. I have a history of taking Ciprofloxacin 500mg, Crestor 10mg, Effexor 112.5mg, and Ramipril 5mg. I have had this issue before and have seen a doctor. I also experience pain during urination, abdominal pain, frequent urination, and light yellow urine without smell or blood. I have tried Advil and Tylenol for pain relief but they did not help. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I have nominally fatty liver disease, my enzymes are slightly off, and I'm making dietary changes. I don’t like eating oatmeal but ordered oatmeal cookies. What would be the optimum amount of oatmeal cookies to eat a day to get the maximum effect? I also cut cream cheese and other processed foods.

My calcium levels are at 10.1, usually staying at 9.8, but due to a diagnosis of osteopenia, I increased my calcium intake through food, which led to tingling in my legs. I refuse to take calcium supplements. Is the tingling related to too much calcium? How can I address osteopenia without increasing calcium? Doesn't a level of 10.1 indicate sufficient calcium? What other tests should I get? The doctor attributed the tingles to anxiety, but I believe they are related to COVID or a possible vertebral fracture. Can a compression fracture cause tingling, and can an X-ray be misread?
