I had my first baby in January and started taking SLYND two months ago. My last period was August 16th and lasted 4 days. My next period started September 13th and hasn't stopped. My periods usually last 3-4 days. I'm using three or four liners a day and have been consistent with the pill. I haven't had sex since giving birth. Is this prolonged bleeding normal, and when should I be concerned if it doesn't stop? Additionally, I noticed darker breast skin after my daughter's birth. Is this normal?

I haven't had my menstrual cycle in 2 months. I am 17 years old and have been on combination birth control pills for almost 2 years. I take the whole pack, including the inactive pills, and have not missed any pills. I always use protection during sex. What could be the reason for this and what should I do?

Could I still be pregnant after taking five at-home pregnancy tests and they all came back negative?

I have been experiencing clitoral pain for about a month, which has worsened over time but is currently stable. The pain is sharp and occurs when the area comes into contact with something or tight clothing. I also have inflammation under the clitoral hood with a small white dot, and the area is super itchy. I am prone to yeast infections but this doesn't seem like one. I have taken flucanazole and have been doing multiple sitz baths for two days. I have normal, white, clear vaginal discharge with no fishy odor. I recently got STD tested and had a pap smear last year, both of which were negative. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I'm a 45-year-old female recently diagnosed with 1 cm irregular asymmetry in the right lateral breast on a craniocaudal view with tomosynthesis. No additional dominant masses, spiculated lesions, grouped calcifications, or skin changes were evident. No enlarged axillary lymph nodes. Density B for both breasts. I'll go back for a spot compression and ultrasound if persistent. What do these findings mean, and should I be concerned?

I passed a clot larger than a quarter for the first time. My cycle was 57 days long, and I am currently experiencing heavy flow on the 6th day. I am 25 years old, breastfeeding two children, and not on birth control. Should I be concerned about the blood or is it just the contents of my uterus?
