I had a 6-week miscarriage on Saturday and am currently experiencing cramping that comes in waves throughout the day, which is quite painful despite taking Tylenol. The bleeding is not very heavy, and there is no nausea or dizziness. I have not seen a doctor yet and have not had an ultrasound. I want to know if the cramping and bleeding are normal and what can be done to alleviate the pain and ensure all tissue passes properly.

I got a positive pregnancy test two days ago and today I started bleeding very lightly. Should I go to the ER or is it something I can deal with at home? I would've been 4 weeks and two days today.

I have been experiencing on and off UTIs for over a year now, and recently I've been feeling small pricks around my labia minora and majora. I've had vaginosis and yeast infections in the past. I'm concerned because I looked up my symptoms online and found alarming information. What could be causing these sensations, and should I be worried about serious conditions like cancer or herpes?

I have a tender cut or bump on my genital area. It started today and I haven't had sexual activity in two days. What could this be and what should I do?

I would like to set up a gynecology appointment. I am 20 years old and have been concerned about this since I was 18. I contracted chlamydia in 2021, took the prescribed medications, and tested negative twice. However, I have been experiencing a persistent weird smell from my vagina since then. I have not seen a doctor since my last negative test in 2022. How can I get rid of the smell?

I am 53 years old and in perimenopause. I have been experiencing prolonged periods that last three to four weeks, with occasional spotting and missed periods. I had a vaginal ultrasound and a Pap smear last May, both of which were normal. However, I have been bleeding for 23 days and started taking progesterone (5mg twice a day, but sometimes only once a day) which initially lightened the bleeding but then it resumed. I am scheduled for a biopsy and D&C with ablation in May and June. Can this be my period again, and why isn't the progesterone stopping the bleeding? Is it a bad sign, and should I be concerned about something serious?
