I am years old. My husband is the same age. The last 2 times we had sex, one of us was bleeding after his ejaculation. After I clean myself, there was no more bleeding from my vaginal area. He takes Viagra. He does not notice more bleeding either. What do you think this may be?

I am on the birth control pill called Tulana and I've been getting periods every 2 weeks. My last period began on Sept 4 and ended on Sept 10, and I am bleeding again on Sept 18. I began my birth control pills in the beginning of June 2020. My last pap test was more than 3 years ago. I have high blood pressure and a family history of type 2 diabetes. What could be causing this frequent bleeding and what should I do?

I started Tri Femynor birth control and skipped my period by not taking the placebo pills and went straight to the next active tablets. I then experienced some spotting about 2.5 weeks into the next pack. I stopped taking them to let my body have a period. Now, I'm wondering if I should start a new pack on Wednesday (so that it'd be a proper 7-day break) or wait until Sunday when the pack is supposed to start.

I’ve been feeling scared because I’m not sure if I’m experiencing pregnancy or period symptoms. I was on nitrofurantoin for a UTI while on Levora birth control and had unprotected sex after finishing the antibiotic. I’m stressed because I don’t want to be pregnant. I’m not sure if my breast heaviness and appearance changes are due to pregnancy or my period. I’m due to get my period in about a week. I’ve read that the antibiotic can cancel out my birth control, which is why I’m so concerned.

I am 49 years old and experience irregular periods, with my current period being very heavy and lasting almost 2 weeks. I am also anemic and have had recent stress due to a local fire. Are there any medical conditions or treatments that could explain or help manage this situation?

I have been on birth control for about 7-8 months and took Plan B once as a precaution. I have been experiencing spotting for the last 2-3 weeks. My last period was the first week of last month. I have never had a pap test and have noticed some brownish discharge and an unusual smell. I have a hormone imbalance that the birth control pills were helping to control. What could be causing the spotting and what should I do about it?
