I am pregnant but experienced a sudden change in pregnancy test results from positive to negative within 12 hours. My blood test showed low hCG levels that doubled, indicating I was under a week pregnant. However, my digital test later showed 'not pregnant.' Is this a miscarriage? I still feel and look pregnant, not bleeding, and taking vaginal progesterone suppositories. What could be happening, and should I seek advice from a fertility specialist after my second miscarriage?

My daughter has been experiencing lower left side stomach pain, cramping, and general discomfort for over a week. Her urine and blood tests came back normal, and she has never had a pap test. Her periods are irregular and light, and she is not sexually active. What could be causing her pain, and should she see a gynecologist?

My partner and I had intercourse last Wednesday, and she took Plan B the day after. She is experiencing light pink and brown blood from her vagina, and we are concerned about the possibility of pregnancy. Could you explain the effects of Plan B, the likelihood of pregnancy given the circumstances, and when she should take a pregnancy test?

I am a 40-year-old woman experiencing midcycle spotting and worsening joint pain, particularly during midcycle. I have tested negative for rheumatoid arthritis, Sjogren's, and general autoimmune conditions. My joints are not swollen or red, just painful. Could this be due to an estrogen deficiency, and is it possible to test hormone levels effectively?

I wake up at night with occasional pain in my armpit. The pain is sharp and stabbing, sometimes slightly burning. It wakes me up from sleep and appears occasionally during the day. What could this pain be?
