I have been experiencing bloating, dizzy spells, tender and sore nipples, fatigue, and muscle cramps for the past two weeks. I am on birth control and my last pap test was two months ago with normal results. I am due for my next period in two days. What could be causing these symptoms?

I had sex today afternoon with a prostitute and the condom was broken. Should I take PEP? Is this my first time reaching out for information about this? In general, how would you describe your overall health? Anything else in your medical history you think the Doctor should know?

I have a burning sensation while peeing and there is blood. I am not sure if it's my periods along with a UTI since my period start date is 26th. The burning started slightly 2 days ago but today it is more. I have no known allergies and no other medical conditions. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I am a 65-year-old woman with a severe vaginal prolapse (grade 3) that has been getting worse over the past 14 months. My current doctor recommends repairing the prolapse and performing a vaginal hysterectomy. Should I get a second opinion, and what are the safety and potential side effects of a hysterectomy at my age?

I have a left ovarian cyst and am experiencing daily brown vaginal discharge with pain. I went to the ER, where they did a CT scan but did not perform a pelvic exam or take vaginal cultures. My periods are regular, and I have no odor from the discharge. I am sexually active but do not use birth control, having had my tubes clamped with Felshie clips three years ago. Could this be related to ovulation, or is there another cause for my symptoms?
