I'm not on my period and have been on birth control for years. Recently, I've been spotting for about a week, possibly longer. I've started having sex with a new partner and the sex has been rough. I have no other issues, just a little bit of blood coming out after I pee and wipe. What could this be?

Getting my period before the last row of the birth control, is it normal? I get the spotting or the period blood as normal as my typical schedule is. Is this normal even though I’m on the 4 pack of birth control pills? I get the regular symptoms as well as the normal period but not as bad as before. I thought I’d only get normal spotting on the last row. And the spotting is taking longer time than usual.

I have a UTI and am late on my period. Am I pregnant? I am not using any contraceptives and have been dealing with the UTI for a couple of days. I started taking Azo today and I am 26 years old. My last period was from June 19th to 24th, and my cycle is typically 30 days. I had unprotected sex on July 21st and a home pregnancy test came back positive. Does a UTI affect the pregnancy test?

I am a 24-year-old female experiencing irregular periods, including brown blood discharge a few days before my expected period start date, which is unusual for me. My periods have also been late many months and are very irregular. I have taken a pregnancy test which showed negative. What could be the possible reasons for these irregularities and brown discharge?

I have two sores on my inner thigh, very close to my vagina and buttocks. They are open wounds with peeling skin around them, and they are very red. I am unsure what they are and am concerned. What could these sores be, and what should I do about them?
