I am 19 and sexually active. I experience a smelly odor from my vagina periodically, and it’s occasionally itchy. Sometimes, my vagina secretes small white flakes, and I am unsure of what is causing the odor. I have a yeast infection kit but am hesitant to use it because I’m not sure that’s what it is. Additionally, I have never had this problem until I started seeing a new person and sleeping with them. What could be causing these symptoms?

I am 5 weeks pregnant and experienced heavy bleeding during intercourse last night. There was no pain or cramping, and the bleeding stopped after sex. Should I go to the ER for this, or is it something I can wait to discuss with my OB/GYN on January 20th?

I had a D&C for a missed miscarriage a month ago and was wondering if the pregnancy hormone remains in the system even a few weeks after the surgery? I’ve taken 2 at-home pregnancy tests 2 days apart and both came back positive. How long should I wait before trying to conceive again?

I am having on and off spotting after delivering my baby in July. The amount is stable and feels constant, with just a couple of days of no spotting before it happens again. I had a hemorrhage one week after delivery that was controlled with an injection, and since then, the spotting/bleeding has not stopped. I have had ultrasounds that show normal findings. Is this common, and what could be the reason for the spotting?

I have a low-lying placenta at 14 weeks and have experienced bleeding. The bleeding has been stable, and I am 33 years old with no medications. I have had two miscarriages in the past. What should I do to manage this condition and prevent any complications?

Why is my sperm watery, and why can't I get my girlfriend pregnant after trying for a year? I have type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure. I am 26 years old and have not had a sperm analysis done.
