I am 50 years old and in the early stage of menopause. I have been experiencing cramps without bleeding on and off for 6-8 months, along with irregular periods for the last year. The cramps are not severe but annoying, and are accompanied by fatigue and a blasee feeling. Could this be due to hormonal upheaval? I had a normal pelvic exam and take ibuprofen, which helps with the pain. I do not take any hormones.

I have one ovary left after a hysterectomy 3 years ago. I have a 3-inch and a 2-inch cyst on the ovary, one filled with blood or debris, and my ovary is twice the size it was last year, which the doctor thinks could be blood or a tumor. I've been feeling very tired and seasick for the past week. Could these symptoms be related to the ovary?

I am having a thick, creamy, whitish-yellow discharge with a foul odor. This has been going on for about a week now. The skin on my lower left leg is numb, but there are no other womanly symptoms. No tests have been done, and there are no significant past illnesses. What could this be?

I'm 3 days late for my period, which is always regular and lasts 7 days. I took a pregnancy test today and it came back negative. My stomach is hurting more than usual, my breasts are sensitive, and I'm not on any contraceptive pills. What could be the problem?
