I am experiencing vaginal itchiness, dryness, pain with urination, blood spotting, extreme burning after sexual activity, and excessive greenish discharge with no smell. The symptoms started about a week ago and are constant. The pain is burning, and after intercourse, it can sometimes be a stabbing pain in my lower abdomen. I have also noticed a change in stool and have Hashimoto's disease. I have tried using an antibacterial treatment (Hiprex) and an antifungal treatment (Multi-GYN flora plus 5ml tubes) with no changes. Is it normal to experience blood spotting after intercourse and occasional blood after urination with a yeast infection? I also have a Mirena IUD.

I was given a NuvaRing for birth control, then 3 days later had unprotected sex. It has now been 8 days since my NuvaRing and 6 days since unprotected sex. I am feeling some light cramping, which I'm worried may be implantation cramps. Is there anything I can do, 6 days after unprotected sex, to prevent pregnancy?

I recently engaged in mutual masturbation with someone who has HPV genital warts, but we did not have sex. I gave him a brief hand job with the opposite hand I use to masturbate, but I'm unsure if I touched my genitals afterwards. I was vaccinated for HPV as a kid. What is the likelihood that I contracted HPV, and how does this affect my sex life moving forward if there is no test for men?

I had sex during ovulation and my period was 3 days late, lasting only 2 days with most of it being brown. What are the chances I am pregnant?

Why has my menstrual cycle been ongoing for two weeks, with abnormal periods since February, including 10 days of bleeding followed by less than two weeks off, and now starting again? I am 40 years old, have had Essure since 2010, and am not on any medications.

If I was intimate with someone 20 years ago who had cold sores every so often, does this mean I have the herpes 1 virus? I've never had any sores but just wonder if I have the virus.
