Do I need to be concerned about possible HIV exposure? I work as a CNA at a local hospital and while helping an HIV-positive patient off the bed pan, they grabbed my arm above the glove and got urine and possible vaginal secretions on me. I immediately washed the area with soap and water. My health is good with no issues, and I'm recovering from a viral upper respiratory infection.

I forgot to take my last active pill in my 21-day pack of birth control. Tomorrow would begin the inactive pills and my 'cycle' would start by Saturday. I am nervous about missing today's pill, especially since I had unprotected sex with my partner yesterday. Is it okay to miss today's pill?

Can someone get pregnant from inserting semen manually after mutual masturbation, especially if the fingers reach far into the vagina?

I got a hormonal IUD (Minera) put in in November 2021 and was on my period for three months until January 2022. I haven't had a period since, but recently noticed what looked like my period starting again. Is this normal, and can I expect it to last for another three months like last time?

What should I do if I tested pregnant at home and I am currently taking birth control (Yasmin) and have irregular periods? I am also COVID positive and just visiting Canada.

I am newly married and my wife, who is 30 years old, has missed her periods for March and April, with only minor spotting/bleeding during these months. She took emergency contraceptive pills (2 pills) in the first week of March and had her last menstrual period on February 18th. She has taken four negative pregnancy tests, the last one three days ago. What could be causing this and should we wait for her cycles to return to normal or consult a local doctor?
