I am 24 years old and my husband is 36. We are planning to start trying for a baby next year and will be traveling to Chiapas, Mexico in February. We are concerned about the Zika virus and want to confirm if it's safe to start trying to conceive 3 months after the trip. Additionally, we are worried about the risk of having an unhealthy baby due to my husband's age.

I just got the birth control implant put in my arm about 2 weeks ago and I've been feeling pretty depressed ever since. Is this a common side effect, and will it go away, or will it last as long as I have the implant (5 years)?

I am a 25-year-old female experiencing light to moderate bleeding with pain in my lower back and discomfort in the lower left side of my abdomen. I must wear a panty liner every day. The blood often goes from dark to bright red, and the discharge has a fishy smell. I believe it might be a cyst on my ovary. What could be wrong internally, and what type of cyst might it be?

I am experiencing excessive bleeding with large clots for the second time in less than three weeks. I have an expired IUD since 2021 and am currently taking levothyroxine and ozempic for weight loss. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I have a Paraguard IUD that has been in for about 9 years. My period was over a week ago, but after sex today, I started bleeding, which is a mix of light and dark blood. This hasn't happened since the first year I had the IUD. Should I be concerned?
