I have a small tear on the perineum part of my vagina that has been painful for about 3 days. It started after intercourse and is causing discomfort while walking, sitting, and using the restroom. I am currently on my period and using a natural fissure oil. What can I use to help heal the skin and should I be concerned about any underlying issues?

The tear on your perineum could be due to a bacterial infection, which might be delaying the healing...

I've had irregular bleeding since January, with brown blood and light blood for three days using one tampon per day. I also experience nausea before eating, breast pain, bloating, and headaches. What could be causing these symptoms?

I am currently on birth control pills (Loryna) and have been using them for about 7 months. I am 18 years old and want to know if taking dietary supplements will affect the efficacy of my birth control pills in preventing pregnancy.

My period is 2 days late, and I'm experiencing some spotting and a lot of cramping, but still no period. I had unprotected sex about 2.5 weeks ago. What could be the cause of my symptoms, and should I take a pregnancy test?

Why do I keep having sores and rashes in the genital area, including the major and minor labia and anus, which started 7 years ago and have been recurrent for almost a year now? The symptoms include itching, painful urination, and soreness during sex. I have been tested for various infections including BV, trich, syphilis, hep C, HIV, and herpes, all of which were negative. What could be causing these symptoms and what can I do to manage or treat them?

I am 6 days late for my period and currently on antibiotics for a UTI. Every home pregnancy test I have taken is negative. My cycles are regular. Is there still a possibility to be pregnant?
