I came off birth control (Tri-Nessa) a month ago and my hyperthyroid symptoms (Graves' disease) are worse. Tri-Nessa always made me nauseous, and I'm worried about side effects from the replacement, Tri-Sprintec. I also have chronic yeast infections and thyroid eye disease, both flaring since stopping birth control. Should I restart birth control, and will it be harder on my body to get back on if I wait longer?

I’m 17 weeks 5 days pregnant with twins. I was having some tightness of my uterus here and there so I went to get checked. My doctor did a vaginal ultrasound and I measured 3.95 and he said my cervix was nice long and hard. Now anytime I get any tightness of my uterus I get nervous. He did not tell me to go on bed rest or anything. I did have early contractions with my other 2 pregnancies but I never dilated and had them at 37 and 38 weeks. I was put on procardia when I was 23 weeks with them. My question is if I start having regular contractions with this pregnancy how early can they give me procardia?

I had an abortion on January 31st and had sex two weeks after the procedure. Could I get pregnant again before my period? If so, when should I take a pregnancy test to see if I am pregnant or not?

I had a hysterectomy about 10 years ago and since then, every time I have sex with my partner, I seem to pee on him. I also feel I have a yeast infection as it itches and gets red and raw. What could cause this, and what should I do?

I cleaned my boyfriend's rubber vagina with just water and noticed small paper cuts on my hands. Since I washed it with water, could any dried sperm or semen have reactivated and transmitted STDs to me? My boyfriend donates platelets to the Red Cross, and his platelets were sent to a hospital for use.

I'm 13 years postpartum and experiencing breast discharge with blood, but no pain or sensitivity unless pressure is applied. I breastfed 3 out of 4 children, had a cyst on the same breast in 2017 that resolved after a biopsy, and my last Pap test in 2019 was normal. My mother had a mastectomy in her 30s, and I have dense breast tissue. What could be causing this discharge, and what should I do?
