I am on birth control pills and last month I was 12+ hours late taking one. About 2 days later my boyfriend and I had sex. After that I started a very heavy period not at my normal time. When it was time for my normal period, I only spotted for about 1 day. Since then I have been having a lot of discharge, feeling like I can't get enough water, and have not had an appetite. What are the chances that I am pregnant?

I had a Pap smear done on Tuesday afternoon and have been experiencing severe cramping and bleeding. Is this normal, and what should I do about it?

I have a healthy 2-year-old girl and had a missed miscarriage followed by a D&C in June 2012. I took Clomid for the chance of multiple pregnancies and had unprotected sex from December 1-15. I experienced period-like cramps and brown spotting from December 16-23, with a positive pregnancy test on December 21 and a negative test on December 23. I am experiencing increased urination, hunger, gas, constipation, bloating, and headaches. What could be happening?

I had my cervix removed 12 years ago and am now menopausal. I have tried Premarin and bio-identical hormones, but they don't help. My hormone levels are never where they should be, and I don't like the risk of cancer. I am looking for natural ways to control hot flashes and mood swings. Any guidance would be appreciated.

I have been bleeding heavily in between my period while on Aviane birth control pills for 6 months. This is the first time this has happened, and it started after I stopped the pill for my period about 1 month ago. The bleeding is heavier than my normal periods, and I am also experiencing abdominal pain. What could be causing this and what should I do next?
