I had unprotected intercourse with my husband on October 22nd, and I got my periods in November and December. Now in January, I didn't get my periods. Is there any possibility of pregnancy, and what could be causing the delay in my period?

I have been on low dose birth control (Nikki brand) for 2 1/2 years and have been spotting between periods for 7 days. I have never experienced breakthrough bleeding before, and my periods have always been regular while on birth control. What could be causing this new occurrence of spotting, and what should I do if it does not improve soon?

When I pee, it burns, and I noticed something white inside my vagina. What does that mean?

I have had a vaginal burning sensation for 2 months, which is constant and not relieved by treatments for BV or yeast infections. I was tested for various STDs and infections, all of which came back negative. I have oral herpes and was treated for BV and Trichomoniasis in April, which is when the symptoms started. I recently had a pelvic exam and ultrasound, which found two cysts but were deemed not concerning. I am currently taking nystatin cream, which provides temporary relief. What could be causing the persistent inflammation and burning, and what steps should I take next?

I had a yeast infection about a month ago and experienced itching for 3 days, which has now subsided. However, I'm noticing tenderness and redness in the vaginal area. I took Monistat for the itching, which helped, but the tenderness and redness remain. Could this still be related to a yeast infection, and what can I do to address it?
