I have been experiencing spotting for the past 3 days with mucus discharge, missed period for 9 days, and a negative pregnancy test. The discharge started 5 days ago and comes and goes. It is a white mucus discharge with a little pinkish tint and has no odor. My last period started on April 17 and ended on April 21, and it usually comes regularly. I got my IUD on May 8. I also have cramping, back pain, and a temperature of 38°C, which I usually never get. I recently gave birth vaginally, and my baby is 2 months old. I am breastfeeding. Should I be worried about the discharge and spotting even if I don't get my period?

I have a thick white milky discharge 3 days after unprotected sex. Could it be semen? Or a sign for something? There’s no vaginal irritation. Is there a noticeable odor to the discharge? When was your last period? Does it come regularly? Anything else in your medical history you think the Doctor should know?

I have been experiencing chronic uterine bleeding for 3-4 weeks, starting as spotting and progressing to clots, which has happened once before. My last pelvic exam was within the last year, and my last pap test was 4-5 years ago with no irregular results. I had hormone testing in 2018 indicating estrogen dominance. My periods have been irregular and heavy with more clots over the last few years. My last normal period was in February. I am 39 years old with no other medical problems. I spoke to my PCP, who is running labs due to anemia and suspects dysfunctional uterine bleeding. I am scared it might be something more serious due to my severe anxiety. What should I do?

I had intercourse with my partner for the first time since giving birth in January 2020, and I think I might have contracted bacterial vaginosis (BV). I am 29 years old and have noticed a foul smell every time I have contact with my partner. What should I do, and do I need a prescription to get BV treated? Additionally, why do I keep getting BV after intercourse with my partner, and is there something he should do as well?

I am experiencing burning sensations when I pee, a constant urge to pee, and now vaginal itching and swelling. I have not had sex for three years and there is no blood in my urine or abnormal discharge. What could be causing these symptoms and what can I do to alleviate them?

I currently have a yeast infection and am growing concerned. I've had about 4-5 yeast infections within the last 12 months. I'm on multiple medications due to wisdom teeth removal and have taken fluconazole for the yeast infection, but see no improvement. Should I be concerned? What can I do to prevent recurrent yeast infections?
