I finished my period 2 weeks ago, today I noticed light spotting and now I have blood clots. I am sexually active, use condoms as contraceptive, and had sex 2 days ago. I have a bit of cramping and very regular periods, once a month, lasting 4 to 5 days. I had unprotected sex before my period and again a week after my period. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I am a 41-year-old woman with irregular periods, sometimes having two cycles in a month. I recently had unprotected sex with a new partner and experienced a peachy discharge with an iron smell five days after the encounter, which lasted a week before my cycle started again. I am prone to UTIs and have never seen this type of discharge before. What could be causing this discharge and should I be concerned about early menopause?

I’m 10 days late for my period and I’m having anxiety. I am sexually active and had unprotected sexual intercourse between October 28-30, which was the same time of my last period. My period last month was also late and lighter than usual. I have taken two pregnancy tests, both of which came back negative, but I’m concerned about the possibility of a false negative. What could be causing my late period, and should I take another test?

Why hasn't my body been able to get rid of the high-risk HPV virus, even after making significant lifestyle and dietary changes, and what are the chances it will eventually clear? Additionally, what are the risks of the virus affecting other parts of my body like the throat or anus, and should I be concerned about passing it to my partner if I try to have a baby?

My daughter had an abortion on June 2nd. She has been bleeding clots, her body is getting cold on her feet and hands, her lips are a brighter color, and she is weak. She is taking ibuprofen for pain and nausea meds. How long has she been bleeding, does she have lower stomach pain, and is there any fever? Also, what else should be known about her medical history?

I have been suffering from severe endometriosis for five years, despite three surgeries and various treatments including birth control and IUDs. The pain is primarily on one side, affecting the ovary that consistently grows cysts. I am terrified of hormone therapy and want to know if removing the problematic ovary is a good alternative and if it is likely that my doctor would agree to this procedure.
