I am a 29-year-old woman who had thyroid cancer, underwent total thyroidectomy, and received radio iodine treatment. Since migrating to Canada, I switched from Thyroxine 87 mg to Levothyroxine 100 mg, which stabilized my thyroid levels. However, I have experienced irregular periods, blood spots after periods lasting for weeks, hair fall, tiredness, pain during intercourse, and lack of sexual desire. I am concerned about my fertility and ability to conceive. What could be causing these issues and what steps can I take to address them?

I am 23 weeks pregnant and experiencing pain in my left lower leg only when I walk. The pain doesn't hurt to touch, and I'm concerned it might be a blood clot. What could be causing this pain and should I be worried about a blood clot?

Can sweating all the time down there from work cause recurring yeast infections? Not wearing the proper underwear & also not shaving? I noticed that at the end of my long sweaty work days I have discharge or sweat or whatever it is build up in my pubic hair.

My wife is experiencing mild spotting and mild cramps, and is concerned about a possible miscarriage. She is 29 years old and her last period started around the 10th. She has not had spotting before. What should we do and what could be the cause?

I'm 27 years old with a Nexplanon implant placed in May 2020. I've been experiencing daily shedding since it was placed, and while I understand this can be expected, I've had estradiol 1mg prescribed before, which helped lessen the black/blood vaginal discharge but not fully. Interestingly, after penetration sex, my discharge clears for 2-3 days and then returns very lightly. Why does Nexplanon cause the uterine lining to shed, and is there anything other than estradiol 1mg or intercourse that could help?

I think I have had a hymenal polyp since birth. I am 36 years old and have had routine exams. No symptoms at all. Is this normal?
