I am a 22-year-old female who recently had sex with my boyfriend, my second partner. He was screened for STDs within the last month, but I am experiencing blisters in my pubic region that are not healing like ingrown hairs typically do. They have spread from one side of my vagina to the pubic bone area and the other side. I am concerned about potentially contracting an STI. How long have you been concerned about the STD, when were you last tested for sexually transmitted infections, are you experiencing any burning, pain, itchiness, or discharge, and what medications are you currently using?

I am a 51-year-old female with physical and mental health issues, taking multiple medications, and experiencing severe symptoms due to perimenopause, including memory loss, over-sensitive senses, and blackouts. My doctor wants me to wait on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) to lower my cholesterol, but I cannot wait due to my suffering. Are there any alternatives to HRT that could help with my symptoms?

I am a 60-year-old woman who last had a period 6.5 years ago. I am now experiencing spotting and bleeding, which has become more consistent and heavier over time. I am not using any contraceptives or medications. I have experienced some discharge, a slight smell, and cramping. What could be causing this bleeding, and what should I do about it?

What does a CBC test result with .3 levels of immature granulocytes indicate, and what could cause fluctuations in WBC count?

I haven't had a period in 5 months. It's happened before. I'm 27 years old, not using contraceptives, and my last period was in December. Work is stressful, and I've only taken nasal spray. What could be wrong, and what tests or treatments should I consider?

Should one be worried about vaginal bleeding (not while on one's period)? The last period was in late December, and there are no contraceptives or medications being used. The bleeding is not as heavy as a normal period but still noticeable. This happened shortly after having a new sexual partner, and there is concern about it being STI-related.
