I am 50 years old, had my last period in October, and had unprotected sex on December 6. Should I take a Plan B pill for peace of mind, and what should I know about potential side effects and informing my regular doctor?

I have been spotting with clots for about 2 weeks. The spotting was dark red for the first few days but now it's brown. I am 32 years old, have a history of PCOS, and last had a period in September 2019. I also experienced headaches and nausea recently. What could be causing this spotting and what should I do?

I finished the Depo-Provera injection 4 weeks ago and now experience heavy bleeding after intercourse with my partner. The bleeding is more than my usual period flow and occurs every time we have intercourse. I am not using any contraceptives or medications, and I am 37 years old. My last pap smear was 3 years ago after the birth of my daughter. Is this bleeding normal after stopping Depo-Provera, and how long does it typically take for hormone levels to return to normal?

I have a hard lump on my vagina that doesn't hurt, but it's been there for 3 to 4 months and is increasing in size. What could it be, and what should I do?

I am 25 weeks pregnant and my stepdaughter's mom got a COVID-19 test. Two people at her work tested positive, but she wears a mask and has her own office. She wasn't required to test but took two tests, one of which was negative, and the other result is pending. Should I still be worried about her possibly getting a positive test result, given that I'm pregnant and concerned about the baby?
