I've been experiencing brown bleeding discharge and my period doesn't start until 8 days later. I've had unprotected sex and took a pregnancy test, which came out negative. I'm also experiencing fatigue and nausea. What could be the cause of the brown discharge, and should I take another pregnancy test?

I am 7 weeks pregnant and have been experiencing severe nausea and vomiting for the past 3 weeks, which has worsened to several times a day and prevents me from keeping anything down. I have tried B6, Unisom, ginger, and anti-nausea bands, but nothing seems to help. What should I do?

I have been experiencing varying degrees of internal vaginal redness and itching for about a week. I tried over-the-counter yeast infection treatment and vaginal itch relief wipes, but they don't seem to be helping. The itchiness comes and goes, and the skin is red but otherwise looks the same. I had unprotected sex about a week ago. What else can I do to alleviate these symptoms?

I am experiencing burning sensations in the vaginal opening and urethra, which come and go, and are worse in the morning and night. I have tested negative for all STDs, including a recent negative result after being treated for chlamydia two months ago. My urine culture showed many bacteria, but I tested negative for UTI and yeast infection. An ultrasound and pelvic exam showed no cysts, kidney stones, or other abnormalities. What could be causing these symptoms, and what further tests or treatments should I consider?

I have not gotten my period for months while on birth control (Drospirenone and Ethinyl Estradiol Tablets, 3mg/0.02mg) and have taken over six negative pregnancy tests. I am concerned about this and want to get my period back on track. Additionally, I have never had a pap test, and I cut out dairy and mostly meat in the fall of 2019. Are there any recommendations to help regulate my period and should I consider switching birth control?
