I have developed an open cut around my clitoris area. It seems stable but last night I noticed small, clear bumps near the cut. I am concerned it might be herpes. I am 27 years old and have been using Hiblicen, Neosporin, and an ointment. What could this be and what should I do?

My past 2 periods have been dark discharge not filling a pad. I am irregular, with my last real period being 90 days ago. I have had 2 ectopic pregnancies and am currently trying to conceive. I have no lower stomach pain, am not on birth control, and have not been on any medication or supplement. I started a boot camp 6 days ago to lose weight, which may be contributing to the hormone imbalance. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I have been experiencing severe vaginal and rectum itching and burning with urination for about two weeks, which comes and goes many times daily. I have tried clotrimazole antifungal cream and canesbalance for bacterial vaginitis, but neither has worked. What could be causing this and what can I do to get relief?

I have prolapsed pelvic organs (bladder, vagina, and rectal prolapse) and my gynaecologist suggests I need surgery, but not urgently. I'm 63 years old, have had two vaginal births, a vaginal hysterectomy, and a previous small operation for the same problem. My symptoms include slight incontinence, occasional difficulty passing bowel movements, and pressure in the pelvic area when standing for long periods. Should I have the surgery sooner rather than later, and will it likely need to be repeated in the future?
