I had unprotected sex with my ex who had a vasectomy, and now I have an infection. I'm unsure how to ask him to get an HIV test. What are my symptoms indicating, and what steps should I take to address the infection and HIV risk?

I have a burning sensation while peeing and there is blood. I am not sure if it's my periods along with a UTI since my period start date is 26th. The burning started slightly 2 days ago but today it is more. I have no known allergies and no other medical conditions. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I am a 65-year-old woman with a severe vaginal prolapse (grade 3) that has been getting worse over the past 14 months. My current doctor recommends repairing the prolapse and performing a vaginal hysterectomy. Should I get a second opinion, and what are the safety and potential side effects of a hysterectomy at my age?

I have a left ovarian cyst and am experiencing daily brown vaginal discharge with pain. I went to the ER, where they did a CT scan but did not perform a pelvic exam or take vaginal cultures. My periods are regular, and I have no odor from the discharge. I am sexually active but do not use birth control, having had my tubes clamped with Felshie clips three years ago. Could this be related to ovulation, or is there another cause for my symptoms?

I have a growth on my groin area that I don’t recognize and I’m trying to figure out what it is. It’s been there for a little less than a month and it appears to stay about the same. It itches when I clean myself. What could this growth be and what kind of doctor should I see to have it checked or removed?

I got a positive pregnancy test but took Plan B 12 hours after the condom broke on January 5th. I am also 4 months postpartum. When did you take Plan B? Has the break been stable or getting worse? Are you using any medications, either for the break or anything else? If so, do you know the dosage? How would you like to connect with the Doctor - phone call or online chat?
