I have been experiencing recurrent bacterial vaginosis for the past two years, with symptoms including brown particles similar to dirt on tissue, itchiness, irritation, and thick discharge. I was previously diagnosed with trichomonas and have been prescribed metronidazole, but the symptoms keep recurring. I haven't had sexual intercourse in a year. What could be causing this recurrence and how can it be effectively treated?

I don't feel any lumps, but I'm concerned about the tenderness, which has been ongoing for about a week. Additionally, I'm unsure about the ease of detecting breast lumps and distinguishing them from normal breast tissue variations.

I noticed a small lump in my armpit right before a hormonal change. I was on birth control and was advised to stop it for a month and retake it. The lump feels soft and doesn't bother. It's been two weeks after I've taken the birth control pill again. Should I wait longer and see if it goes away or see a doctor about it?

I’ve gotten an STD test, Pap smear, ultrasound, and an HPV test done. Everything came out good, but I still don’t feel okay. I'm 22 years old and have some discharge, but not much. It feels really tight down there, and it looks swollen and just not right. I tested positive for chlamydia a couple of months ago and took treatment, which came back negative. What could be causing these symptoms, and what should I do?
