I am a 33-year-old woman who has never had children and has been recently diagnosed with disordered proliferative endometrium with focal metaplastic changes, including squamous morule formation and features of breakdown. I am finding it difficult to get quality information online. My gynecologist wants to start me on cyclical progesterone, but I am uncertain about taking hormones. What kind of abnormal bleeding have I been experiencing, and why am I uncertain about taking hormones?

I am pretty sure I just had a hemorrhagic ovarian cyst rupture, but the pain is starting to cool down and I’m not having any signs of too much blood loss. I always get sent home to watch for the signs so do I even need to go? What can I do at home?

I am 6 weeks pregnant and have been experiencing sharp, constant pain in my stomach for a couple of days. I tested positive for COVID-19 last week, but the pain started before that. This is my third pregnancy, and I have no other symptoms or health problems. I have been a bit stressed due to financial issues. What could be causing this pain, and what should I do about it?

I have had Nexplanon for 3 years and 3 months. I am experiencing slight bleeding 2 weeks after my last period. Is this normal, and should I be concerned about hormonal imbalance or other issues?

My partner just had intercourse less than 15 minutes ago. I wore a butt plug with a jeweled top, and he wore a latex-free condom. After protected sex, we noticed red bumps, about 3-4 on the tip of his penis. The bumps are not itchy or painful and appeared immediately after sex. Could the bumps be caused by the friction from the jeweled butt plug?

I’m concerned that I might’ve been ovulating around the time I took a Plan B pill. My partner pulled out very early, and a condom was used, but I’m not sure about pre-ejaculation. I don’t know how worried I should be. I’ve never used Plan B before, and my last period began on August 17th. My periods are pretty regular, but I think I have somewhat of a short cycle. I am a 23-year-old female, and I took the Plan B pill around 8 hours after the incident. I am also concerned about possible skin-to-skin contact while he was erect before putting the condom on.

I had unprotected sex a day after my period while on birth control, took Plan B two days later, and experienced irregular periods. I stopped taking birth control and started a new pack. My last pregnancy test was negative. Could I still be pregnant, and should I expect my period once I finish the new birth control pack?

I had a miscarriage in January and recently found out I am pregnant again. I am experiencing some spotting today and am concerned. I still have breast soreness, which I didn't have before my last miscarriage. I am 34 years old and haven't had a period since November 2021. I am currently 6 weeks pregnant and have no stomach pain, dizziness, or vaginal discharge. I have a history of irregular periods and PCOS. Should I be worried about the spotting, and what should I do next?

I am 33 years old and have been experiencing vaginal cramping and lower abdominal pain on day 4 of my periods, along with heavier than usual bleeding. I had a polypectomy about a month ago, and I used to have spotting before my periods due to polyps. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?
