I am a 41-year-old female on Errin 0.35mg contraceptive mini pill. I have been experiencing prolonged and irregular bleeding, pain in my right ovary, and occasional shoulder pain. Could this be related to an ectopic pregnancy or hormonal imbalance due to the mini pill? Should I be concerned, and what steps should I take?

I was having pregnancy symptoms for a month and my period was 10 days away when I had sex with my fiancé. I started bleeding like a regular period. Could it be possible that I’m pregnant?

I had finished ovulation on April 20 and had unprotected sex on April 22, taking the Plan B pill the same day. I never use birth control pills. How effective is Plan B in preventing pregnancy after ovulation, and how might it affect my upcoming period? If my period is delayed more than a few days, should I take a pregnancy test?

I missed my period and took a home pregnancy test, which showed negative. My last period began on July 13, and I usually get my periods every 30 days. I am not using any contraceptives or medications, I am 25 years old, and I have hepatitis. What should I do?

I’m trying to determine if I have a sexually transmitted disease (STD) or bacterial vaginosis (BV). I have bumps at the bottom of my inner thighs, and my boyfriend also has bumps around his pubic area. My discharge can be white and watery at times, and I haven't had any burning, itching, or pain during sex. What could this be, and how should it be treated?

For the past month, I’ve been getting yeast infections almost every week. The infection is constant but not as severe as it has been in the past. I’ve been using AZO medication and a probiotic, and I am 23 years old. I do not have redness, bumps, or sores, but I do have itching and cottage cheese-like discharge. I am sexually active with one partner, and I have had BV before. What could be causing these frequent yeast infections, and what can I do to manage them?
