I am 29 years old with advanced PCOS and stage 4 endometriosis, had a tubal ligation, and am on Depo Provera. I had unprotected sex 18 weeks ago, used withdrawal, and have had no pregnancy symptoms. I took nine over-the-counter urine pregnancy tests over 18 weeks, all negative. Can I be 100% sure I'm not pregnant? Is there a possibility of tubal ligation, Depo Provera, and withdrawal all failing simultaneously, resulting in false-negative urine tests and no symptoms?

I have PCOS and experience severe cramps not related to my period, which last about 10-20 minutes. My last period was on November 5 and comes regularly. I am 32 years old and take ibuprofen 800mg. I had an IUD removal surgery in June of last year. The cramps started a year ago and have worsened recently after my first sexual encounter in a year. I have no pain or burning with urination, no fever or chills, and no nausea or vomiting. My STD and pap smear tests were negative last week. What could be causing these cramps and how can I manage the pain?

I am worried I might be developing an STD. The last girl I was with for a month started getting itchy down there and had to pee often. Now, a few weeks later, I seem to be itchy down there and have developed dry spots that almost look like the forming of a rash. I am very mildly itchy and it's just been the last two days so could be nothing. She had no sores or anything like that. Just itching around the area and the need to pee a lot. How often do you urinate or feel the need? Any involuntary urination? Are you experiencing any of the following: burning, pain, itchiness, or discharge? What are all the medications you're currently using, either for the STD or anything else? How old are you? Anything else in your medical history you think the Doctor should know?

I'm 5 weeks pregnant and woke up with brown discharge. I had this in my previous pregnancy that ended in miscarriage. The discharge has no odor and is like regular discharge, just tinted brown. My last period started on May 4th and ended on May 8th, occurring every 28 days. I'm 31 years old, taking Cipralex and baby aspirin, and experiencing mild discomfort but no severe cramping, bright red bleeding, or fever. What could be causing the brown discharge and should I be concerned?

I am having brown bloody discharge but I am very consistent on my birth control. It started yesterday, has no noticeable odor, and is liquidy. I do not have a period with the birth control I am on, and I am on Slynd birth control. The discharge is very dried up/old and makes me nervous. It's also a little itchy/hurts to pee but only sometimes. My partner just tested positive for chlamydia, and I have ordered meds just to be safe even though I tested negative. Do you think that could be why I bled?

I am experiencing a sharp, pin-like pain inside my vagina, which started yesterday and is constant. The left side of the inner lip appears swollen and painful. There is no vaginal discharge, but I can feel a sore inside the vagina, which is mostly dry and has a bad odor. I have not had sexual intercourse recently, and my last period was around November 15. I have Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) but no other medical conditions. What could be causing this pain, and what can I do to treat it?
