I have missed my period and have been experiencing nausea daily and randomly throughout the day, but a pregnancy test was negative. I am not using any contraceptives. I have been dealing with the nausea for a week. My last pap test was in April with normal results, and there are no signs of swelling, discoloration, or unusual smells. I had a baby in March, and three weeks ago, I had a very heavy period that required a hospital visit due to excessive blood loss. What could be causing these symptoms?

I had the Paraguard IUD removed due to severe back pain, and I started a combination pill. After stopping the pill for 4 days and restarting, my back pain returned. I'm concerned if this is related to hormone fluctuations or if there's another underlying issue, such as endometriosis. What should I do to manage the pain and ensure it doesn't affect future pregnancies?

I had a test for yeast infections at the doctor's office, and the doctor saw yeast under the microscope, but the culture came back negative. I have been dealing with what I believed to be a recurring yeast infection for over a year now. I have had symptoms like itching, burning, and some discharge. Why might the culture test be negative when the microscopic examination showed yeast, and could I still have a yeast infection?

My wife, who is 45 years old, has been experiencing excessive bleeding during her period for the last 3 weeks. She has had a normal period before this, but now her haemoglobin is low, and she has received a blood transfusion. The hospital is suggesting a D&C (Dilation and Curettage) procedure. Is this procedure really necessary, and will it cure the problem permanently? She had a similar issue a year ago that was resolved with birth control pills.
