I have been experiencing a burning sensation in the vulva region for nearly a year. I have tried antibiotics, pills to renew microflora, and my doctor has ruled out STDs and harmful bacteria. My current doctor suggests it might be overly sensitive nerve endings, but she doesn't know how to help. I am 21 years old, healthy, and recently started using a special intimate soap with tea tree oil. What could be causing this burning sensation, and what can I do to alleviate it?

I have no odor and cottage cheese-looking discharge with spots that look like lesions. It started on Wednesday and has been consistent. I am on antibiotics for an infected tattoo and have Graves' disease. I used Monistat 3-day treatment for a yeast infection, but I am now seeing these marks and it's burning. What could this be and what should I do?

The last day of my cycle was on Jan 28th, but I have been spotting since Feb 2nd. The spotting has been stable and constant, and I am not using any medications. I am 29 years old and have no other significant medical history. My periods are regular, and I am not on any hormonal pills like birth control or emergency contraceptive. The spotting started the same day I had sex. What could be causing the spotting, and is it related to my increased bathroom usage?

I experience blood when I pee, frequent urination, discomfort and a burning sensation while urinating, blood in my bowel movements, and intermittent pain in my right ovary. The ovary pain started a couple of months ago and has been getting worse. The pain is described as achy and stabbing. I've been using Diane 35 for birth control for four years. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

I had a purple, pin-like bubble on the outer part of my vagina for the last six months. It never caused pain and didn't pop until last night when it bled for about thirty minutes. This morning, it seemed to fill again and bled when squeezed. I was diagnosed with HPV in 2017 and had a pap test in 2018-19 where it was said to be dormant. What could this be and should I be concerned?

We have been trying to get pregnant for 3-4 months. How can we increase our chances of conceiving and what steps should we take?
