I have a red sore inside the bottom of my vagina with discharge. It recently started, and I went to the hospital for irritation and itchiness, where they treated for STDs but couldn't confirm. Someone suggested it might be a yeast infection or UTI. The discharge has no odor and is minimal. My last period started on August 8 and ended on August 13. I am 19 years old and on medication for a chronic condition. What could this be and what should I do?

I am concerned about having HIV after having protected sexual intercourse on February 27th, which was followed by a sore throat and flu-like symptoms starting on March 4th. I took a rapid HIV test on March 6th, which showed 'normal' (negative). I am worried if I took the test too soon and if the symptoms I experienced could be early signs of HIV.

My periods keep coming early, with only 14 days between my last period and the current one. I don't use any contraceptives or medications, but I recently took Plan B and experienced food poisoning. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I am experiencing a burning sensation in my vagina that started yesterday and comes and goes. I have no vaginal discharge, but it feels dry. I am diabetic, have high blood pressure, and am taking water pills, which cause frequent urination. I also have an itchiness near my urethra. I had sexual intercourse on July 15. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I’m spotting and was expected to start my period yesterday. My positive OPK was July 24th, and we had sex two days before and the day after that positive test. The spotting started on August 4th and has been light and brown since then. I’m nervous because I’m trying to get pregnant and I’m afraid I might be miscarrying. I don’t have any pain, and my breasts feel fuller. What could this spotting indicate?

The inside of my vagina is bright pink and a little swollen. I've had this for 2 days now. There is some irritation and a feeling like a UTI when I urinate. I've been taking doxycycline, and I'm 17 years old. What could be causing this, and what should I do?
