I am pregnant and had an ultrasound where the technician thought I might be having a miscarriage, but the doctor said the report looks fine. I am unsure about my last menstrual period and my cycles can be irregular. What could cause the technician to think I might be having a miscarriage, and is there anything concerning in my report?

I missed my period by three days and I’m experiencing nausea that comes and goes, cravings for certain foods, bloating, and fatigue, but all my pregnancy tests have been negative. How can I determine the cause of these symptoms?

I was ovulating at the beginning of the month and directly after I bled for a couple of days and then I missed my period and I have been cramping like crazy for the past few days. Do you frequently experience cramping? How long does it usually last? When was your last period? Does it come regularly? What are all the medications you're currently using, either for the cramp or anything else? How old are you? Anything else in your medical history you think the Doctor should know? Are you concerned about pregnancy?

I did my NT scan yesterday at 12 weeks 4 days. I got the following results: Crown rump: 51MM, Bi-parietal Diameter: 15MM, Nuchal Translucency: 1.3MM. My OB is away until mid-September, and I am anxious to know if I am in the normal range. The Bi-parietal Diameter seems low as many online sources say it should be 20MM. Additionally, my blood work came back with these flags: RBC - LOW 3.99 x E12/L, Hemoglobin - LOW 111 g/L, Hematocrit - LOW 0.323 L/L. Are there any concerns with these results?

I had a UTI and bacterial vaginosis a few weeks ago and was prescribed antibiotics that I believe threw off my pH, causing discomfort. I've been dealing with this on and off for a few weeks. I am experiencing burning/discomfort when I pee and a little crampiness. I had a full STI/STD swab and bloodwork panel done in June that only came back positive for bacterial vaginosis. I have not been sexually active since then. I was prescribed antibiotics for BV and a steroid cream for external irritation, which helped but now I'm feeling off again. My at-home pH tests indicate my pH is still a little off. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I have a UTI and have been taking AZO over the counter for 24 hours. I am 36 years old and breastfeeding a 29-month-old child. What should I do regarding breastfeeding while managing this UTI?
