Does Plan B work 5 days before the estimated start of my period, and what indicators can confirm that it has worked to prevent pregnancy?

I had my period from December 25th to 29th and took Plan B on January 3rd. Today I have my period again. What causes this and is it normal?

I’m concerned about my vaginal pH. My boyfriend has a reaction every time we have sex. It started 6 months ago, and I’ve had some recurring yeast infections that might have kicked it off. He developed some dry sores/rash type things on his shaft that inflame every time we have sex afterwards. What could be causing this and how can we address it?

I have an IUD and have experienced spotting leading up to my period, intermittent spotting between periods, and throbbing aches in the vaginal area before and after my period. Are these common symptoms of the IUD, or should I see a doctor because it could be something else?

I think I have a vaginal polyp and am spotting lightly. I can't get into the doctor for a couple of weeks. The spotting has been consistent but very light, and I don't have to wear a pad. I am 59 years old, my periods stopped in 2012, and I just had a pap smear last year which was okay. I have been spotting for 3 days, with no abdominal pain, and I used my vibrator only on the clit area on Saturday. The spotting looks whiteish with blood spotting sometimes, and sometimes there's nothing. What could be causing this and what can I do in the meantime?
