I recently stopped birth control and am trying to conceive. I used OPKs and believe I ovulated around the 26th of September. I have not yet started menstruating and have negative pregnancy tests. I am experiencing symptoms similar to my first pregnancy. Could this be due to stopping birth control, and is there any chance I could still be pregnant despite the negative tests?

Is it normal to get periods so close together, especially after taking Plan B, and what could be the causes of irregular periods?

I have been on Nexplanon for about 6 years and just had it removed today. I am experiencing constant nausea and lightheadedness since then. Is this normal after stopping birth control?

Around the 20th of December, I noticed cuts near the opening of my vagina and one big cut on my labia. I also have small blisters near my perineum, a smell, itchiness, and swollen lymph nodes in my groin area. I treated it as a yeast infection but I'm unsure if it's that. Additionally, I noticed a hemorrhoid-looking bump on my anus, but it doesn't hurt to poop. What could be causing these symptoms?

I am concerned about the effectiveness of my NuvaRing contraceptive. I can feel the ring when I insert my finger, and I am worried it might not be deep enough. Additionally, I had my period after using the NuvaRing for the first time, but I am still anxious about the possibility of pregnancy. Is there anything I should be worried about?
