I have a painful lump in my inner labia that stretches from the side of my clitoris to outside of my vagina. The entire vulva and anus area is very itchy, burns, and hurts to pee and go to the bathroom. I have been experiencing these symptoms for the past 4 days and they have not improved. I am 20 years old and have been diagnosed with lichen sclerosus in the past, but this current condition is more severe. I have had unprotected sex with multiple partners, some of whom I do not know their health status. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

I missed my depo shot the first week of April. Had unprotected sex May 16th and 23rd. I'm experiencing a lot of gas, bloating in my stomach, tender nipples, nausea with no vomiting, and a heightened sense of smell. I had a period a week after missing my depo, which lasted two weeks and was very light. My last pap smear in January was normal, and all STD and HIV tests were negative. Is it possible for me to be pregnant, and what should I do?

I’m trying to get pregnant. I had my period from November 17 to November 22. Around what days should I be ovulating and could my egg have been fertilized if I had sex on November 28th?
