What’s normal and what’s not normal in pregnancy breast changes? I felt a spot in the upper half of my left breast that feels more firm and rope-like compared to the same area on my right breast. I’m 22 weeks pregnant and my left breast has always been smaller than my right.

I need a second opinion from a male doctor. My vagina hurts, and it's embarrassing. The symptoms include pain when going to the bathroom, burning, irritation, and vomiting. The issue started a few days ago, and I don't have health insurance.

I have been experiencing persistent, dull nausea for about 3 weeks, along with cravings for certain foods, bloating, feeling full quickly, heaviness in my lower abdomen, frequent urination, and difficulty completely emptying my bladder. I am not pregnant. How long have you had the nausea? Is this stable or getting worse? How's your appetite? Any bloating, fatigue, or diarrhea? What are all the medications you're currently using, either for the nausea or anything else? How old are you? Anything else in your medical history you think the Doctor should know?

I experienced a threatening miscarriage on November 1st and went to the ER. I felt like I had a miscarriage on Sunday. I had an ultrasound before the miscarriage when I was 5 weeks pregnant, and after going to the ER, they said it was a threatening miscarriage. I had a lot of bleeding on Sunday, and now the bleeding is medium. I have an ultrasound appointment on November 14th. Can I wait until then, or should I rush to the hospital? Is it normal to have heavy bleeding and then the bleeding stops and then continues again? Why do I have clot-like heavy bleeding after 2 days of miscarriage and uncontrollable cramps? Does the placenta and the sac come out together in a 5-week pregnancy? I experienced placenta expulsion after 4 days. Today the bleeding is less, but I even have a light fever. Is it a chance of infection? My bleeding has stopped, so can I do masturbate or have back sex? Is vaginal sex safe with a condom? If the blood flow has stopped, does it mean that the pregnancy tissue is expelled off? It's been 1 week today, so would a home pregnancy kit help me to get the result, or would it still be positive?
