I have been experiencing consistent loose stools with occasional diarrhea for the past month and a half, which began from former antibiotic use. I am taking birth control pills (Minastrin FE). Am I protected from pregnancy even though I have had loose stools? Additionally, I took Diflucan for a yeast infection developed during antibiotic use. Will this affect the birth control pill?

I'm 17 years old and I'm bleeding during sex. I haven't had a pap test or pelvic exam, and there's nothing else in my medical history that the doctor should know.

I am a 32-year-old female who has had two ectopic pregnancies in 2015 and 2018, resulting in the removal of both fallopian tubes. My last menstrual period was on July 3, and I had a negative pregnancy test today. I am not using any contraceptives. I am concerned about my irregular periods and the appearance of itchy bumps on my upper arms. What could be causing these symptoms and is this normal?

I had sex with my boyfriend from Sunday to Friday. On Saturday, I started feeling itchy in my vaginal area. When I checked on Sunday, my vaginal lips were swollen and I had white skin peeling from the inside of my vagina and around it. Could you please help me?

I have been spotting with clots for about 2 weeks. The spotting was dark red for the first few days but now it's brown. I am 32 years old and have been experiencing headaches and nausea recently, aside from the spotting. My last pap test was 10 months ago after I had my baby, with no abnormalities. I have a history of PCOS. My last menstrual period was in September 2019, and I had unprotected sex with my husband two weeks ago before the spotting started. I am not on any birth control. What could be causing this spotting and what should I do?

I have had two previous c-sections, and this is my third pregnancy with an anterior placenta. I am concerned about the risk of placenta accreta, which could potentially lead to a hysterectomy during delivery. What health concerns should I be aware of, and what preparations should I make for the delivery?
