I am 60 years old and have been under a lot of stress this past week due to my brother's car accident. For the past 3 days, I've noticed a little bit of pinkish spotting when I wipe. I have an appointment with a gynecologist in two weeks, but I'm very nervous because when I googled it, cancer came up. I had an abnormal pap smear 8 months ago, but further testing showed everything was okay. I don't have cancer. Are there any other medical details I should provide?

I have a weird rash/scarring near my vaginal opening. It stings a lot and is very itchy. I’ve tried using hydrocortisone, but it hasn’t helped. What could this be and how can I treat it?

Where can I go to test my hormones and also to get an ultrasound to test for ovarian cysts?

I had an ultrasound and transvaginal ultrasound that showed a markedly fluid-filled and distended endometrial cavity, possibly due to cervical stenosis or other etiologies, and uterine fibroids. I am scheduled for an MRI and a GYN appointment. What could be causing the fluid, and what are the treatment options?

Years ago, I had an emergency D&C and believe the doctor who performed it may have caused issues. I no longer have regular periods; they can be absent for years, but when I do have them, they last for a month or more. I am not using any contraceptives and am concerned about my fertility. What could be causing this and what tests or treatments are available?
