I have low iron and have noticed irregular bleeding at certain times, but never for a full day. I started working out recently due to weight gain, and have mild acne but no increased hair growth. What could be causing this, and what should I do?

I am 50 years old, had my last period in October, and had unprotected sex on December 6. Should I take a Plan B pill for peace of mind, and what should I expect in terms of side effects and follow-up with my regular doctor?

I was first married in 1976 and experienced painful intercourse due to my first husband being too big. I spoke to my doctor who suggested cauterizing the vagina, which I agreed to. For 30 years, intercourse was painful and I did not get any pleasure. My husband died in 2007 and I have since remarried. While sex is no longer painful, it is still not pleasurable. Could the cauterizing have damaged or lessened the clitoris? What can I do to improve my sexual experience?
