I have been using the Ortho Evra patch for over 4 years. My last menstrual cycle was in June, and it's now August without any period. I took a pregnancy test and it was negative. Should I be worried? I have had two miscarriages, one being a molar pregnancy, and I'm 36 years old. My last pap test was in January and it was normal. Are there any concerns with not having a period while on the patch?

I had sex about ten days ago using the pull out method and took three morning after pills over the weekend. I am experiencing cramping and spotting, which feels like I am getting my period. Is this normal with Plan B, and does being overweight affect the effectiveness of the pill?

I have an unusual spot on my labia, about 1 cm round, light pinkish in color, and smooth. It stings when I urinate, but I have not seen any discharge, it does not itch, and there are no other issues with it. I am in an eight-year monogamous relationship. What could this be and what should I do?

My girlfriend is pregnant and the ultrasound shows she is 6 weeks along, but we had sex 27 days ago. How is this possible, and what should we do if she is not ready for the pregnancy?

I was diagnosed with BV after experiencing breakthrough bleeding due to my birth control. I had been wearing a tampon for three weeks straight, and shortly after my period ended, I noticed symptoms of BV. I was prescribed Flagyl, which helped somewhat, but I still feel slight discomfort. I used RepHresh gel inserts, which provide relief for 72 hours but symptoms return afterward. What home remedies or treatments can help manage or cure BV?
