I am 45 years old with confirmed adenomyosis. I've had 1 D&C and 2 rounds of Progesterone shots. I've been passing old blood daily and now bright red blood with clots, along with abdominal and back pain. I don't want a hysterectomy but am unsure of other options. Is hysterectomy my best bet, and should I be concerned about the new bleeding? Also, given my family history of breast cancer, should I consider removing my ovaries during the hysterectomy?

I’m 53 years old and I believe I might be pregnant, but my blood test was negative. I’m not using any contraceptives, and my last period was over a year ago. I’ve had unprotected sex with my husband and took the blood test less than two weeks ago. I don’t have any cramps. What could be causing the sensation of movement inside me, and how do I address this issue?

My 9-year-old granddaughter has had several little white bumps on her perineum since the beginning of summer. Most have gone away, but two remain and have become reddened with a white head. They look like they will burst but have been like that for several weeks. What could these be and is there any treatment for them?

I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2018 and underwent chemotherapy last year. I am now on an aromatase inhibitor (estrogen blocker) and take a Lupron injection every three months to keep my ovaries inactive, which has led to early menopause. I am experiencing severe side effects such as hot flashes, night sweats, anxiety, and mood swings. Is there anything that can help with these side effects?
