I have had a hormonal IUD for a year and a half. Two weeks ago after ovulation, I started spotting, and now my period is 3 days late. Could I be pregnant?

I have recurring bacterial vaginosis (BV) infections and recently tested positive for Ureaplasma. I have no sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and all other tests were negative. What is Ureaplasma, and should I be concerned about it in relation to my BV?

I had unprotected sex on September 19 and 21, took Plan B pills on the same days, and started bleeding profusely with brown blood from September 25 to 28.

My inner vaginal lips are swollen and painful. It started a few days ago and has become more swollen since then, with pus and blood appearing this morning. The pain is mostly achy but becomes sharp when touched. What could be the cause and what should I do?
