Can you share with me the symptoms of HIV? I had unprotected sex four weeks ago and tested negative for HIV on October 8th and again on November 18th. I have a very bad anxiety disorder and am scared to death. I've had slight night sweats in the last few days, which I believe might be due to my anxiety. Can you help me understand if these symptoms could be related to HIV or if they are more likely due to my anxiety?

I’m on the Depo shot, my last shot was September 22, 2020, and I had my son December 1, 2019. My energy has been really low, I’m usually tired, and my appetite and mood are unstable. Could I get pregnant while on Depo birth control?

I started taking Ortho Tri-Cyclen Lo and got my period on the 21st. I missed the Sunday start. Should I take two pills now and two pills tomorrow? Or since I am within the 5 day window of my period starting, am I good with just taking one today?

I started lightly spotting yesterday morning. I am currently on Ortho-Tri-Cyclen and have been for about 6 months. We had sex last Monday and I missed my Tuesday pill. I totally missed it and didn't take another pill until Wednesday night. This morning I woke up and it is dark red blood. Not like a regular period but enough to freak me out. Today I am still 16 days from my next period pill. Couldn't I have ovulated and gotten pregnant last Monday? I missed pill number 10.

My Pap smear results indicate EPITHELIAL CELL ABNORMALITY with LOW GRADE SQUAMOUS INTRAEPITHELIAL LESION (LSIL). The HPV DNA reflex criteria were not met, so no HPV testing was performed. How long have you dealt with this abnormality? Is it stable or getting worse? Are you using any medications, and how old are you? Is there anything else in your medical history that the doctor should know?

I am 6 weeks pregnant and have been experiencing sharp, constant pain to the touch on 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. What could be causing this pain, and what should I do?
