I have been experiencing pregnancy symptoms for about 2 months, but my pregnancy test is negative. My estradiol level is 244 pg/mL. I am 48 years old and recently stopped hormone replacement therapy (HRT) which included testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone. Could my symptoms be related to the HRT or are they due to perimenopause?

I'm 18 weeks pregnant and have had one previous abortion. I'm concerned about the number of abortions I can have and the possibility of getting a DNA test while still pregnant. Additionally, I'm trying to determine the exact week I got pregnant based on an ultrasound reading of 11 weeks and 2 days on May 30th.

I had unprotected sex while I was spotting, and I took a Plan B pill, but I'm still spotting. Could I still get pregnant, and what does that mean?

I'm having severe pain in the right lower part of my abdomen. The pain is constant and started earlier today. It feels ache and crampy, and I have experienced bloating. I'm a 28-year-old female with a history of intermittent pain for three months, but it worsened today, accompanied by nausea. I've had tests and seen doctors, all of which came back negative. I'm currently taking sertraline, quetiapine, vitamin D, and Symbicort for asthma. What could be causing this pain, and what should I do?

Should I get a Kyleena IUD, and what are the expected side effects, changes to my cycle, and potential issues like expulsion? Additionally, does it affect the way sex feels, urination, or orgasm, and when should it be inserted and removed?

I have vaginal bleeding during sex and it continues for days. The bleeding is light and I only notice it when I wipe. I am 25 years old, diagnosed with PCOS, and haven't had a period since October 2022. I recently started taking Tylenol for joint pain but no other medications. I have experienced pain after traveling with occasional nausea but no persistent lower stomach pain. I am not on birth control and have lost weight recently. My last Pap smear, STD testing, and pelvic ultrasound were in 2020 and January 2022, respectively. I have no allergies to medication.
