I had my tubes cut and burnt when I was 26 years old, and now at 41, I've experienced irregular periods due to a family hormone imbalance. After my tubal ligation, my periods became less frequent and eventually stopped for four years. However, at age 40, I started having periods again, which were dark brown and heavy, causing me to visit the ER. Now, I experience periods every month or every other month with severe nipple pain and heavy cramping. Can you explain the severe nipple pain and heavy periods, and is this menopause?

I've been experiencing pregnancy symptoms for the last week and a half, but a urine test shows negative. I'm using contraceptive pills and finished my period 11 days ago. I missed one pill last month but still had my period. What could be causing these symptoms?

I just got a positive pregnancy test but I’ve been spotting for about 2 weeks. I have PCOS and mild cramping in my lower abdomen. My last period was July 5-11. What could be causing the spotting, and what should I do to ensure a healthy pregnancy?

I have had an IUD for 8 months now. I’m bleeding everyday since I got it. I’m bleeding so much that I’m having to wear pads instead of panty liners. It’s heavy and clots. Is this normal?

I was having really bad cramps and passed a lot of clots. I'm on day 11 of bleeding. Should I be concerned? I've never experienced cramps this bad before, and my periods are usually irregular. I'm due for a pelvic exam, and I haven't had any irregular results from past exams. I'm 31 years old, not taking contraceptive pills, and my last sexual activity was on June 10th and 11th, without taking Plan B. What should I do?
