I am 7 weeks and 3 days pregnant. Last week at 6 weeks and 2 days, my HCG level was 71,400. Today, 8 days later, it only increased to 84,700. My estrogen and progesterone levels also decreased slightly (but are still within the normal range). Estrogen went from 1150 to 1000, and progesterone from over 40 to 32. However, we saw good growth and a heartbeat of 154 on the ultrasound today. How concerned should I be?

What is the accuracy of a pregnancy blood test, and how soon can it detect pregnancy? If I took a blood test 2 weeks and 2 days after sex and it was negative, but my period is late and all pregnancy tests have been negative, does that mean I'm not pregnant?

I had lap myomectomy with left endometriotic cystectomy and adhesiolysis on 17/1/2021, followed by three cycles of GNRH and use of dinogest until August 2021. Since then, I have been experiencing stabbing pain on my left lower back that radiates to my left leg, sharp pain in the left lower abdomen at the pelvic region, and severe stomach bloating. My last ultrasound showed post-surgery clots, and I was given medication for them. What could be causing these symptoms, and what should I do next?

My 74-year-old mother has a persistent yeast infection that started under her breasts after a mammogram and has spread to her lower stomach, inner thigh, and top of her vagina. The infection is now a bright reddish-purple color and causes significant burning pain. She was recently diagnosed with diabetes this year. What type of doctor should she see, and could this be a staph infection?
