I am on maternity leave at 34 weeks and need a doctor's note for FMLA, but my midwife says she can't authorize it. I have gestational diabetes and other pregnancy-related issues. What can I do to get the necessary documentation without losing my job?

I am 31 years old and have been concerned about my health for the past few months. I have HPV, regular periods, no unusual discharge or smell, but I've been experiencing frequent urination that comes and goes. I also found small bumps inside my vaginal wall during a self-exam. I haven't had a Pap smear in a while and am worried about cervical cancer. What should I know and do about this?

During deep penetration, my partner feels like something is scraping the head of his penis. This has been happening for almost a year. He is 49 years old and not using any medications. I experience a little burning after sex. Is there something inside me that could be causing this?

I had unprotected sex on the 4th day of my period last month. My regular cycle lasts for 6 days but it ended on the 4th day after sex. I took Plan B the next day. I also had protected sex 5 days after taking Plan B, after which I experienced unusual brown blood for 3 days. Is there any chance that I can be pregnant because I still haven’t got my period till now? I also feel bloated these days and get very light cramps since about a week.
