Can a woman experience really bad cramps in her vagina if her uterus rejects a fertilized egg? I normally experience what is called lightning crotch but I’m not pregnant. This time, it happened a couple of days after ovulation, like 4-5 DPO. My last period was May 4th through the 10th, and it normally comes anywhere between 26 and 30 days. The pain was so severe for the first hour that I could not move. Could this be due to a rejected fertilized egg, or is it something else?

I have been experiencing pregnancy symptoms such as vomiting, nausea, headaches, tight stomach, sleepiness, and spotting, but my period isn't due for another two weeks. My last period was on August 14, and I took a pregnancy test today which was negative. I had unprotected sex about a week and a few days ago. What could be causing these symptoms, and what should I do for relief?

I have a cut inside my vagina that feels uncomfortable, itchy, and hurts during sex. I also suspect a yeast infection but am unsure. I'm 23 years old, haven't had a pap test or pelvic exam in over a year, and previously had chlamydia without symptoms. What could be causing these symptoms, and what should I do?

I have blood test results and an ultrasound report that suggest polycystic ovaries. Can you review these reports and tell me if you see polycystic ovaries? Additionally, I have irregular periods, acne, and have noticed some bloating. Could these symptoms be related to polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), and is it reversible? What role does weight play in this condition, and can medications like Metformin help?
