I have been spotting for a few weeks, and today I experienced a heavier blood flow resembling a menstrual cycle, which I should not be having as I am on birth control. Additionally, I developed a small lump at the 5 o'clock position outside my rectum this morning, which is slightly uncomfortable but not painful. How long have you used birth control? Has the spotting been stable or getting worse? Are you using any medications, either for the spotting or anything else? How old are you? Anything else in your medical history you think the Doctor should know?

I am experiencing bleeding during my early pregnancy. I am unsure of how far along I am, but I recently tested positive for pregnancy. The bleeding started as brown spotting and has now increased to a slightly more red color. I am 34 years old and on prenatal vitamins. What could be causing this bleeding, and what should I do?

I have a copper IUD and my period was supposed to start on the 19th but hasn't yet. A week before the 19th, I was spotting for one week. I've taken two pregnancy tests, both negative. What should I do?

My daughter had unprotected sex four days ago and has been taking Yasmin regularly for about a year, but has had breaks and breakthrough bleeding. Is it too late for her to take Plan B, or can she take extra Yasmin? She wants to ensure there's no pregnancy.

I am 4 weeks 6 days pregnant and have been taking pregnancy tests daily with the same test and always using my first morning pee. The line was super dark the past couple of days, but this morning it was lighter. Isn’t the line supposed to be getting darker? I also had some light brown spotting at 4 weeks that went away after a couple of days, and today I had one wipe of brown spotting. I had a miscarriage in November and am panicked. Should I be worried?
