Does smoking marijuana through vaping reduce the effectiveness of an emergency contraceptive pill taken almost immediately after? If the pill fails, what are the next steps to confirm pregnancy, and what does it mean if a urine pregnancy test shows one bright line and one faded line?

I am experiencing heavy prolonged periods that started three months ago. I am not using contraceptives or any medications other than Tylenol for pain. I am 26 years old and have a history of low platelet counts and anemia. I have experienced similar issues last year, and now the bleeding is severe. I have also experienced symptoms like weakness, tiredness, shortness of breath, chest pain, fainting, and lightheadedness. When is the right time to go to the hospital, and what should I do in the meantime?

I’m having a pregnancy scare. My last period was July 8-9, and I’m on day 36 of my cycle now. We used the pull-out method, but it was quick, and he swears he pulled out in time. I take Adderall and Omeprazole regularly. My cycles vary between 29-34 days, with one instance of a 40-day cycle a few years ago. What are the chances of pregnancy, and what should I do to confirm or rule out pregnancy?

I am 5 weeks pregnant and have experienced a clear jelly-like discharge. I have had a first-trimester ultrasound and am taking prenatal vitamins. I walk every other day and have no pain, cramps, or bleeding. Is this discharge concerning, and what should I do if I feel twinges?

I started spotting this morning and I don't know if it's implantation bleeding or if I'm just spotting. My spotting has been stable so far, I'm not using any medications other than birth control, I'm 22 years old, and I don't have any additional medical history that the doctor should know about. I'm not trying to conceive, my periods are not regular, I don't have any burning or itching while passing urine, and I have stress.

I experience persistent itching and irritation in my vagina after sexual intercourse, despite testing negative for STIs. What could be causing this and what steps can I take to address it?
