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?

I am 29 years old and experiencing many pregnancy symptoms such as a round, warm belly, implantation bleeding, hot and cold sensations, nausea, headaches, dizziness, and a sensitive sense of smell and taste, despite negative home pregnancy tests. I have been on prenatal vitamins and previously took Ambien and Clonopin. My last period was around May 2nd. Could I still be pregnant, or is this a hormonal issue?

I have a yeast infection and UTI. Is there anything over-the-counter (OTC) I can take to help with these conditions?

My mom, who is 78 years old and a smoker, has an anteverted uterus with a grossly abnormal and thickened endometrium (27.6 mm) and experiences vaginal bleeding that comes and goes. She was recently diagnosed with this condition and has been taking antibiotics due to an abscess. What should we do next, and what are the potential concerns, including the possibility of uterine cancer?

I'm 54 years old and on estrogen replacement therapy (0.05 mg per day Estradiol patch for 7 months) but still have no sex drive and almost no sensation in my clitoris. My last pap test was 4 years ago, and I had a partial hysterectomy in 2005, but I still have my ovaries. How long have you been having decreased sexual urge?
