I had a total hysterectomy about a month ago and have been experiencing complications such as nausea, chills, insomnia, burning sensation during urination inside my vagina and above the incision, difficulty pooping without a water enema and suppository, and an inability to hold anything down. I am 42 years old, and my last pap test two weeks ago showed an abnormal rise in my gallbladder. I also have anemia and feel like something is seriously wrong. What could be causing these symptoms and what tests should I undergo to determine the issue?

I fell on my left breast and have been experiencing constant throbbing pain since then. I had X-rays and an MRI at the hospital, which showed no issues, but the pain persists. What can I do to alleviate the pain and promote healing?

I am a 62-year-old woman on combined HRT (very low dose estrogen and continuous natural progesterone) for 12 years. My uterus is now large (6x12 cm), with a few myomas, possible endometriosis, and adenomyosis. I have severe cramps at night, no bleeding, but increased progesterone to 200mg and take Motrin regularly. I stopped HRT for a year, which resolved symptoms but caused sleep issues. I resumed HRT due to lack of sleep. Myomas developed after menopause. Should I consider a hysterectomy for relief from cramps and to improve sleep and HRT management?

I had a UTI last weekend and took AZO urinary relief and amoxicillin for two or three days. Now, six days later, I think I might have a yeast infection and I have the urge to pee often again. I also have dryness and burning around my vagina after I pee. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I forgot to take my birth control pill yesterday and had unprotected sex. I am planning to take Plan B for extra protection, but I have an appointment to get the Nexplanon implant inserted next week. Would taking Plan B today impact my ability to get the implant inserted or the effectiveness of the implant itself once it's put in?

I have light green vaginal discharge that comes and goes, with no odor and no other symptoms. It started a few months ago and lasts for a day or two before disappearing for a while. I have an IUD, so I don't get periods. What could be the cause of this discharge?
