I was diagnosed with herpes about 2 years ago and recently had another outbreak after catching COVID-19. I've been taking Valacyclovir 500 MG for two days and applying Acyclovir to the outbreak, but my vaginal area has swollen more. Should I be concerned? Has the swelling been constant or getting worse over time? Is there any pain or tenderness, and is it constant or on-and-off? Are there any other medical conditions the doctor should know about?

I had an intrauterine insemination (IUI) done on June 29. I took a urine pregnancy test (UPT) today, which was negative. Is it possible for this to be a false negative, considering it's day 14 post-IUI? Should I take a blood test for a more accurate result?

I have a small tear on the perineum part of my vagina that has been painful for about 3 days. It started after intercourse and is causing discomfort while walking, sitting, and using the restroom. I am currently on my period and using a natural fissure oil. What can I use to help heal the skin and should I be concerned about any underlying issues?
