I am 56 years old and have not had a complete year of period-free cycles since March 2007. My periods are erratic, occurring every 4 to 5 months, followed by two periods 28 days apart, then stopping for 3 months. My bloodwork shows menopausal levels, but I continue to have medium-flow periods lasting 4 to 5 days. I have had normal sonograms and biopsies. What is your opinion on this, and is it common?

I have been bleeding from my vaginal area for more than a month and it's getting worse. I am not using any medications and I am 23 years old. I had an angiogram done in 2020 to burn a blood vessel to stop the bleeding, which stopped but has started again. What should I do?

I have a vaginal skin tag that I noticed about a week ago. It doesn't hurt or itch, and it's the same color as my skin. I'm currently taking birth control and am 19 years old. Should I be concerned about this skin tag, and what should I do about it?

I noticed my period is late, and I took three pregnancy tests over the course of a few days, all of which came back negative. I stopped using birth control after my last period, which was on March 24th. I'm concerned about the delay and wondering if it could be related to stopping birth control. Should I be worried?

I took a pregnancy test two days ago that showed positive, but today's test showed negative. I am 21 years old, had a miscarriage in June, and have been having unprotected sex. I have some pinkish-reddish spotting but no other symptoms. What could be causing this and what should I do next?

I found out I was pregnant last week and experienced bleeding and cramps over the weekend, which I believe was a miscarriage. The bleeding stopped on Wednesday, but I've had significant pain under my stomach since yesterday. I'm on birth control pills, don't take vitamins, and exercise by walking my dog three times a week. I have a history of weak kidneys and have had two miscarriages in the past year. I've taken pregnancy tests, but the second line is faint. The pain is severe on both sides under my stomach, and there's no discharge or fever, but I have had blood clots with a pink to dark red/brown color. What should I do?
