I had a sharp stabbing cramp in my lower left abdomen yesterday. Today, there is a small amount of blood on the toilet paper after urinating, but my period is not due until the end of the month. I have had a bit of fever and chills off and on all day, but no other pain except for a bad lower back pain around December 23 that resolved after about a week. I am allergic to naproxen and estrogens and have no other medical conditions. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

Can I take the abortion pill in the second week of pregnancy, or is it dangerous and should I wait until the sixth week?

I took a morning after pill a couple of weeks ago and have been bleeding for 9 days now. My period came early after taking the pill and the bleeding has been stable/consistent. What could be causing this prolonged bleeding and what can I do to stop it?

I had a laparoscopy a month ago to remove endometriosis and started Lupron Depot two weeks ago. I'm experiencing bad cramps, tenderness under my incision area, and I'm concerned about a possible umbilical hernia. What should I do?

I spoke to you yesterday about an intense headache, which went away by this morning. I saw my OBGYN today for a normal appointment and got a flu shot. Everything was fine until I ate dinner and felt really hot and unwell, then threw up everything I had eaten and continued to throw up until it was stomach acid. Should I be concerned this is due to the flu shot? I suffered from hyperemesis in my last pregnancy but have been okay recently since being prescribed anti-nausea meds.

I finished my prescription for bacterial vaginosis, metronidazole 500 MG, and still have symptoms today. This has never happened to me before and I am wondering what I can do. I’ve had symptoms for over two weeks now. My symptoms have been constant and the metronidazole helped with itching but I still have thick gray discharge. I finished the whole 7-day prescription last night. What should I do next?
