I had unprotected sex during my ovulation period and took Plan B the next morning. I'm experiencing heavy brown blood and bad cramping, but my pregnancy tests are negative. Could these symptoms be due to Plan B rather than pregnancy?

I have been bleeding and passing large blood clots for 7 days, with the bleeding getting heavier each day. My period never fully came about 2 weeks ago, but I was lightly spotting dark brown blood and passing some dark brown tissue. I am not using any contraceptives and had a tubal ligation done in 2011. My last pap test was about 2 years ago, and I have been doing a cleanse. Could this be related to my recent thyroid level fluctuation or the cleanse? Should I go to the ER, and what could be causing this?

I’m having mid cycle bleeding that’s heavy and with clots. It has been going on for 7 days and is getting worse. I’m using an antibiotic for a UTI and I’m 18 years old. I typically have regular periods and do not use any contraceptives. I recently moved a few months ago but otherwise, there haven’t been significant changes in my lifestyle, body weight, diet, or activity levels. Are there any underlying conditions that could be causing this heavy bleeding, and what should I do about it?

My period is late for 20 days. I am not using any contraceptives, have never engaged in any sexual practice, and my last period began on the 14th of September. I am not using any medications and I am 18 years old. How often do you normally get your periods, and is this the first time you have this issue?

I had unprotected sex (without a condom) while on birth control (Yaz pill), and I have been experiencing diarrhea. I am unsure if my pills have been working due to the diarrhea and food poisoning-like symptoms. Should I take an extra pill, emergency contraception (Plan B), or change how I take my pills?
