I used PH balancing boric acid suppositories because I felt a yeast infection starting a day after sex, and have been in discomfort for 3 days now, thought a UTI may have started as well. I realized I used them with a cut/tear inside from the sex. Will this heal soon or do I need a pelvic exam? I'm uninsured so I'd really like to save the visit.

I had a laparoscopic surgery to remove a large cyst from my right ovary 3 weeks ago. I found out today that I am 7 weeks pregnant. I was 4 weeks pregnant during the surgery and my pregnancy was not detected. I am concerned about the potential side effects of the anesthesia on my baby, such as congenital defects, neurological damage, brain damage, or fetal death. What should I expect regarding the health of my baby, and would these potential damages be visible in a 7-week pregnancy ultrasound?

I took a positive pregnancy test but have an IUD in place. I've had spotting, cramping, and am 75 days late on my period. What should I do next, and are there any situations that would require an emergency room visit?

I am having constant ache inside my vagina. It started this morning. I am 21 years old, do not take any medications, and had emergency pills three times in the past four months. My periods are irregular, coming once every 2-3 months, and I only get periods 14 days after taking emergency pills. My last period was two days ago, and I had sex yesterday. I am worried about pregnancy.

I always bleed when I have sex. The bleeding is not heavy and stops immediately when we stop having sex. I am 19 years old, not on any medications or birth control, and only use condoms. I recently started taking slimming pills but am unsure if they are related to the bleeding. What could be causing this and what should I do?
